A new demo for machines with 16kb RAM (no hires addon required) created by me.
I think these 256x192, full-framerate effects are a world first on the ZX81, but since I'm rather new to the game, I might be completely wrong!
Here's a screenshot:
You can download the binary from my
homepage
And if you are too lazy to wait 7 minutes for the binary to load, there's always a
YouTube video

Your demos keep getting better and better. I wish you'd actually write a game!!!!

siggi: No, the standard pseudo-hires restrictions apply. I am fairly certain that it is impossible to do a 'full' hires routine on an expanded machine without having the hires-mod.yerzmyey: Thanks for your kind words and helping to spread the info!name: Nah, I'm not really into coding games. I have done games for other systems in the past, and I grow bored of them before they are finished.

Btw, Sdw - You've got a small (?
) mistake on Your site.
Two ZX81 links, while one
http://ag1976.com/prods.html?prodplatform=12 should go to ZX81
and the second
http://ag1976.com/prods.html?prodplatform=13 should go for Atari VCS/2600
Anyway - I love Your ZX81 / Commodore VIC-20 stuff and I hope You will keep support these devices.
BY THE WAY - CAN I ASK YOU FOR A LOOPED VERSION OF "Somewhat Less Limited Capabilities"???????
I would like to have it for constant showing on 8bit meeting (not only Sinclair ones).
