    How I wish these kinds of video tutorials were available when I tried to program in the 1980s.

    Great to see all these wonderful tools again. Charles Brannon, was a HS teen at the time these programs were written. His game Astro-Panic (Gazette, Feb. 84) was my first type-in game and using MLX. Likely used this sprite tool to create the space ships.

    I'm passionate about videos, which deal with topics related to the c64, in particular, the management of sprites in basic - beautiful, interesting and fun video

    I vaguely remembered making sprites as kid, using graph paper and typing in all those DATA statements from the Commodore 64 user's manual.. wow, so time-consuming... spent so much time as a kid learning how to program in BASIC... ah, good old times. Fun to see you show this in an easier manner.

      There is a lot more to sprites. after 255 in the x coordinate. You have to turn on a pit to permit the sprite to move past the 255 location.
      as mention in the video for sprite to sprite collision. To animate a sprite may take left right, up and down. But there is also the diagonals as well.
      There is also falling. and dying. Then you got the other monsters. Also, if you want to add weapons there are other sets of sprites. Where do you put them all?

    Great one ! You seem to know a lot. If you feel like it would be great if you published more videos on how to control sprites with the joystick, time sprites with the raster line, control collisions with other sprites and background, etc in assembly. We would all improve a lot 🤙🕹

    This is a great sprite animation tutorial. I am still trying to figure how you animated the car and the sprite editor program to extract data lines. You did a great job explaining everything. There is a way to peek (56320) some how to control the sprites with joystick port 2. I appreciate this tutorial thank you.

    I feel like I need it explained like Im a complete idiot. My only experience is reading the user guide (up to this chapter). Theres no doubt 500 books about this
