For those who find the aforementioned EDAS insufficient, or for those who haven't yet dipped their toes into Assembly on the C64 but have always been curious about looking beyond high-level languages, the following might be just right for you.

YouTuber MyDeveloperThoughts has dug up OCEAN's Laser Genius. An assembler, monitor, and analyzer by Oasis Software come together to form a complete software development package for those truly dedicated. And for those familiar with Turbo Macro Pro, it's definitely worth a look. Notably, the assembler is available in both a low and high memory variant, allowing users to choose their desired memory range for their own creation.

The video provides a detailed walkthrough of all the software components, and the obligatory border color cycling is, of course, included. Anyone intrigued by a low-level challenge with a high-level IDE for the small Commodore should at least check it out.
