Also, the author it's amazing; I was looking for this https://github.com/M64GitHub/6510-emulator-c in order to run Metal Warrior 1-4 (and a few more c64 demos) under my n270 ATOM based netbook without getting mad with VICE. I already use FastSID instead of resid and I rebuilt it against SDL1 and disabled some OpenGL effects, but it doesn't run 100% fast.

Yes, I tried with x64 instead of x64sc.

Maybe one day I'll be competent enough to create some simple SDL2 based emulator with that core plus the 6502...

I've stumbled over sixels [1], but movy seems to use something else that also enables color output and a higher resolution?

EDIT:

Seems like the resolution looks better than it actually is in the screenshots. It effectively seems to be 2 vertical Pixels per character.

First time I have seen this. Incredible music and intense gfx all packaged under 64k? Impressive as hell.

For terminals and the framebuffer, either fbdev or KMS.
