Commodore VIC-20: Prince of Persia Longplay

[@CathrineMacNiel]

Damn, it's pretty impressive that the VIC-20 can run this game :O.

[@rootbeer666]

Wow that's really impressive. I totally didn't expect that on VIC-20.

[@ddscora]

Absolutely outstanding

[@ivanbraidi]

What an unbelievable technical achievement! Well done!

[@kaczan3]

Bruh, our Vic-20 can be this cool?

[@brianbagnall3029]

This is really faithful to the original. That's an incredible achievement.

[@SomePeopleCallMeWulfman]

I did not expect a game this good!

[@user-ff6pq1eg8x]

Hope more colours get added to this game.

[@VIPERsRetrogamevideos]

There won't be any more colours because the high resolution graphic mode of the VIC-20 is being used here. More colours would only be possible in the multicolour mode, but then the pixels would be wider and therefore the resolution lower. This would make the game appear more colourful, but it would lead to a significant loss of details. The game is perfect as it is, and the ZX Spectrum version has exactly the same (and also not more) colours.

[@user-ff6pq1eg8x]

@@VIPERsRetrogamevideos I understand due to limitations something has to give way I guess but it still looks clear and sharp.

[@grauekatze]

Astonishing what the old VIC-20 can be coaxed to do!

[@stevenpavelish6017]

Mad sorcery! Just MAD!

[@evilotis01]

ok this is fucking WILD. i had a VIC-20 back in the day, and if i'd walked in one day to see this on the screen, i'd have legit lost my mind

[@Isharu1011]

Like #69 :D nice - Love the video, i even appreciate the parts where you pause after you almost die cause i recognize that brief moment of embracing the relief lol.

[@nevbarnett]

[@sasulintula4236]

I love retro in 2020's

[@alaiwasango]

After many many years.. I still haven't finished this game

[@ivanbraidi]

You're unforgivable, bro! ;)

[@gabrieleamore3081969]

Looks and sounds exactly like the ZX spectrum version...

[@jessragan6714]

Next you're gonna tell me there's a VIC-20 version of DOOM. Wait, there is? I think I need to lie down.

[@commodoreclub]

Incredibile.

[@djpirtu2]

I always wonder (as a musician) why the music notes are always little off on vic-20, on every game.

[@The8BitGuy]

The VIC-20 only has an 8-bit pitch value for each of the 3 voices. So you can't fine-tune it like you can with most systems that had 16-bit values.

[@geoffgunn9673]

It’s how they generate the frequencies with the available math and the note frequency ends up being close enough.

[@nitrofurano_]

prince of persia on vic 20... wow...

[@inphanta]

What kind of witchcraft is this!? 😮
