FYI, I followed through with one of Wile Coyote's suggestions and added "ROCK WINS", "PAPER WINS" or "SCISSORS WINS" in large text once there's a winner. Thanks for the suggestion, Wile!
I'm, not sure if it's possible to update this release entry on CSDB, and I'm not sure if it's acceptable to add a new release entry for this version (I got chewed out for doing that with my "Skull" release). So I'll just post a link to the new D64 file here for anyone who's interested:

| yes, you're right, ofcourse 8 frames. i was thinking of 16 pixels wide but you only need 8 states, i mixed that up ;-) |

True, using a set of x-pre-positioned frames per symbol would certainly save a few clock cycles per symbol plot. And I'd only need 8 of them per symbol (not 16). It probably wouldn't be enough to squeeze out a screen refresh, but it would help. As for the frame clearing, I'm reasonably certain I've got that optimized about as much as possible. (I clear only the 16x16 blocks that the previous plot used, and use zero-page pointers in the loops for maximum speed.) |

Actually pretty cool. Just an idea, 16 x-pre-positioned frames per symbol, fetched via table, so you dont need to x-shift gfx, only have to mult for vertical positioning and an unrolled frame-clearing-loop could speed it up?
And for a game one could even control a cursor sprite that a initially selected "symbol cloud" could gravitate towards.
Really nice idea you got there! |

If you do decide to do a version, one upgrade i would like to see is.. for the Scissors to point in the direction they are travelling in. For the Rocks to look more like Rock, and possibly animate like spinning asteroids. Maybe the Paper could animate paper style. |

| Cruzer, that would be cool. If you manage to pull off a faster version with the same number of glyphs, I'd love to see what techniques you used to get it that fast. For reference, this version produces a new frame every 8 screen refreshes in NTSC (7 in PAL). |

| Nice idea. Now I wanna do a faster version. |

This looks better in action than the screen shot suggests.
Fun idea! ^_^
Once there is a winner, some large text could work. For example:
ROCK WINS
PAPER WINS
SCISSORS WINS
I heard the voice from Mortal Kombat as i was typing those words ;D |

| BTW, STOP cleanly returns to BASIC. Also, space restarts, so you don't have to re-run it every time you want it to start over. |

| this is pretty cool, ran it 3 times: scissor win, rock win and the final round was a beautiful rock crushes scissors, with 1 paper left -> paper wins. |

| Don't use autostart in an outdated VICE if you always get the same result :) |

| Pretty cool, it would be even better if it was not deterministic. Paper always wins. |
