MAKING 8-BIT ARCADE GAMES IN C

Steven Hugg



 

With this book, you'll learn all about the hardware of Golden Age 8-bit arcade games produced in the late 1970s to early 1980s. We'll learn how to use the C programming language to write code for the Z80 CPU.


The following arcade platforms are covered:

  • Midway 8080 (Space Invaders)

  • VIC Dual (Carnival)

  • Galaxian/Scramble (Namco)

  • Atari Color Vector

  • Williams (Defender, Robotron)


We'll describe how to create video and sound for each platform. Use the online 8bitworkshop IDE to compile your C programs and play them right in the browser!
