Running Apple 1 software on a breadboard computer (Wozmon) [video]
The Apple 1 ROM is quite a tight piece of coding. Just 256 bytes which implements basic console IO, and memory editing in hex. And still two bytes left over.
One version with lots of comments: https://github.com/jefftranter/6502/blob/master/asm/wozmon/w...
You can see a classic assembly language space optimizing trick at PRBYTE. It first prints the upper half of the byte in hex with call to the PRHEX procedure, then falls through to PRHEX again to print the second half. Two entry points to a common routine.

Playing Cosmic Conquest, a old-style real-time strategy game, on my breadboard 6502
For a command line program I started out with getting WOZMON working and then began adding more capabilities similar to the Apple II system of old. I got tired of adding one-off functionality and discovered Forth when looking at programming languages suited for systems with limited resources. Look into TaliForth2 to get up and running fast on your 6502. The full program requires 24k ROM but can be slimmed down to fit in 16k pretty easily. I was inspired so I wrote my own Forth 2012 Standard version over the summer.

Hey anyone tried to write an assembler for the 6502?
Jeff Tranter has a github with a ton of stuff 6502, including a mini assembler. Many others out there as well.

Enhanced version of Cosmic Conquest (a Forth based game from 1982)
I've also uploaded a 64k binary of my 6502 Forth with my enhanced version of Cosmic Conquest loaded in RAM. You can find more details on my GitHub.
