Nice! Just looked you guys up on Pouet, and although I definitely remember the name from back then I don’t really recall having seen any of the demos unfortunately.
This is most of my crap FWIW. A few mediocre sample demos of my own in there :D
yup :|
From the video it’s running on a CPC 6128 — IIRC (40 years ago, now) the original 1984 model, the 464, was 64kB RAM and a tape deck (which is what I had) and then the 664 came out the next year with 64kB and a built in 3" disc drive, and then the 6128 was almost straight after with 128kB RAM and disc drive.
Otherwise there wasn’t really any notable difference in the internals — 4MHz Z80 that was effectively slowed down by the video hardware.
Cool demo! I tried a few things like this but I was 12 or 13 at the time and upgraded to an Atari ST in ~1987 so never really got that deep into it. Had to teach myself Z80 assembly and figure out how to program the video memory first, and information was kind of hard to come by back then :D
Edit: just noticed your username… were you an ST kid too?
That’s pretty sweet for a Speccy.
The country next to mine keeps threatening to invade.
Agreed!
Not the first time I’ve read through one of these scam-baiting articles and I’m sure it won’t be the last. It’s quite fascinating how they work.
Canadians are buying fewer products made in the U.S. in an effort to brace for the impact of President Trump’s sweeping tariffs, which are set to cause prices to skyrocket across a range of products.
It has nothing to do with bracing for the tariffs. It’s because Fuck The USA.
I really liked that.
