Sure, beside of those two that you had indicated I also found these:

Well, after some digging I found out that:

move.l #$00000000,d0 takes 4 cycles
clr.l d0 takes 6 cycles

Hi there;

What is faster?

clr.l d0 or move.l #$00000000,d0

Hi there;

Hi there;

I used to code in C using Pure C so I decided to learn 68K assembly.
I made this prototype of a space invader game in 68K asm. It works in following way:

- A small invader appears randomly on the screen.
- The invader moves to the left and to the right.
- You can move your ship to the ...

To complement the good work of akuyou I find these tutorials from perihelion of poSTmortem very useful:

Mmmmm, it seems that compatibility mode isn't so ...

I have tried compatability settings. Should it work with XP?

If you coulnd't run it, check this walkthroughs made by the gammers:
