I commented about using VCC on the Facebook Group post:

Quote: "Simply an incredibly stunning feat! Good job! I currently don’t have a CoCo3, so I tried it on VCC 1.42. If you Config Right Joystick to Keyboard, I thought it was very playable (and natural) using the up / down / left / right keys and the F1 key to jump. I understand what Nick is saying that on a real CoCo3 there is a greater sense of the feat – but VCC does a good job at faithfully emulating the CoCo3 (at least on an AMD A10-6800K @ 4.12 Ghz it does!). So to me, I'm still super impressed."

I’ll add here I meant to mention, the sound is not that great of VCC, but I can’t compare it to a real CoCo3. But the graphics + animation are spot on. 

It really is too bad that the VCC owner will NOT officially open source the thing.  I don’t have any idea what he gains by keeping it close source.  I would be more than willing to offer improvements – a command bar for quickly switching common options on/off – implementing the keep aspect ratio for resizing.  Drag and drop disks and carts.  There are a lot of things like that, that would make this very cool emulator – it already is quite outstanding as it is.
