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.

An attempt at resurrecting Cosmic Conquest (1982). PRs welcome. I expect a challenge on this one.

Playing Cosmic Conquest, a old-style real-time strategy game, on my breadboard 6502
Cosmic Conquest was a challenge on r/Forth to get an old Apple II game written in Forth running on modern hardware. u/rickcarlino spearheaded the effort, documented in his GitHub. I thought it would be a nice project to try out on my new Forth system. It gave my system a workout and enabled me to identify a few bugs I hadn't seen before..

Enhanced version of Cosmic Conquest (a Forth based game from 1982)
I've been having fun getting Cosmic Conquest, the 1982 real-time strategy game written in Forth, to run on my 6502 SBC. This has been discussed here and here. Thanks to /u/rickcarlino and /u/erroneousbosh for their work on the GForth version of this project. You can find the raw source code of my version here. Note that my version has 16 bit cells. You might need to make minor modifications where FLEETS and F use ! and @ to get my version running on a Forth with larger cells.

Type-in FORTH code from 1982 - would it work ?
Sounds good. I went ahead and created a Github repo for my progress: https://github.com/RickCarlino/Cosmic-Conquest-1982
