Going through games HAL Laboratory did for VIC-20/MAX Machine/C64. I think they did several games they're not credited with anywhere. A little harder to tell with VIC-20 games because they lack the distinctive font.

yeah; there's some weird cartridge port things that make things not quite compatible that being said, TOSEC seems to only have a subset of MAX Machine cartridge dumps, so ???? Clowns (1982)(Commodore - Midway) Omega Race (1982)(Midway) Radar Rat Race (1982)(Commodore)
I can't even find any pictures of Sea Wolf on Max Machine (cart, box), so I don't know if it actually came out. Jupiter Lander seems to be the same on both machines as well.

IDK either, and Jupiter Lander credits HAL directly so there's no surprise there do you suspect anything about those three games I listed?

Clowns and Radar Rat Race share a font with HAL games.

on a semi related note I've recently started accumulating MSX music stuff, and one of which is a program that HAL made called Music Editor MUE; so now I'm imagining what the world would be if they made it for the Commodore 64
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Radar Rat Race actually is the same on both machines, except for one single changed byte that has to do with the settings for the I/O ports in the 6510 (which probably explains why Max Machine games don't always work on the C64?) currently comparing VIC-20 and MAX versions

(btw if you're wondering how I seemed to suddenly become knowledgeable on the C64, it's because I've recently gotten into both it and the MSX as a side effect of their surprisingly vast array of musical software and hardware)
