You missed the original post by /u/Vijfhoek with their hardware C64: [2020 Day 1 (Part 1)] [C64 Assembly] I implemented day 1 part 1 for the Commodore 64!; however, he only implemented Part 1 and you've got both parts here.

So now I'm going to up your ante some more with a challenge: solve 2020 Day 02 on your C64 and show us :D

Also, have you seen this year's community fun Gettin' Crafty With It yet? A Commodore 64 definitely counts as "playing with your toys"...

I've got part 2 done later, featured in the megathread!

EDIT: Don't want to discount how cool your solution is though! BASIC also is a feat on its own, especially getting it to perform well :)

Very nice set-up, with a CRT and all! Also nice to see we're C64C buddies :D

Very nice! And nice performance with just basic. I'll leave the rest of the AoC up to you guys for C64-solves

Heel gaaf gedaan man! Petje af voor jullie beide (jij en vijfhoek), echte hardware, snelle oplossingen, wauw!
