I've been going through it, and it is indeed enormous amounts of code to understand, but .. he wasn't stupid. He left a lot of clues behind and documented things in a way that a careful follower might be able to pick up the pieces. I think he wanted that. So anyway I'm going to keep trying to unders...

I knew the distributor of Oric in Australia back in the day, and these DEMO tapes were distributed for shops to have something running on the Oric hardware - as far as I can remember, they had a mode where they just 'scrolled' through a bunch of screenshots or something, some sort of gimmick that th...

I contacted the author of Tetrix, he said he would look for a copy for us ..

I have a friend there, I've asked him to pick it up for us!

From twilighte/Wurlde/Docs: The potential emptyness of death, like the Nothing from Neverending story or the great deapth from Abyss, like a few dark dreams i had as a child.

I'd do it in SDL, pure and simple, and that way it won't only be Windows-based. Or, if not SDL, them something at least portable across platforms.

I'm very sad to hear of Jonathans' passing. I have been a fan of Twilighte since the very second I saw his splash, some decades away.

You made me sad! But maybe there is a way you can use the inverse attribute method to achieve similar results ..

This is awesome, I'm seeing the opportunity for an expanded Tracker to come of this, beyond the scrolling game engine .. well, *with* the scrolling game engine, maybe you could make a nice music editor as well ..

Wow, I will never get used to seeing Oric colors being usable so close together like that. My 13-year old brain is hard-wired to look for the color clash, every single time.

Nice work!

I'm really serious, its a performance tweak!

Great stuff, I finally get a chance to try this out properly!

On the subject of Tetrix, has anyone contacted Andre Widhami, by any chance? He seems to still be rather a prolific software person, by the looks of it ..

Cheap high-pass filter, perhaps?
