  • Assembler for C64

    From Daniel@1:340/7 to All on Fri Aug 23 01:19:28 2019
    Folks,

    I'm wishing to brush up on assembly and learn for the C64 as I have a game I'd like to write. I have found a resource
    or two on the net which serve as a guide for doing so. Requesting recommendations from yall seasoned c64 types who know
    the best sources.

    Thanks

    You'll need a few books or PDFs of those books:
    6502 reference
    6502 programming guide
    C64 system reference ("C64 Programmers Reference Guide")
    C64 memory map (with annotated source code)
    C64 assembly programming guide

    Find them on the bombjack website:
    http://69.60.118.202/commodore/books.htm
    And on archive.org.

    6502 programming guide

    I have the "bible" here; Rodnay Zaks' "Programming the 6502". It starts
    with binary arithmetic, two's complement and stuff I always found hard
    to understand.

    Also got me recently his book about Z80 programming.
