I usually have multiple jump tables so maybe I should try it, but I usually just use some self-modifying code instead
It's in Zalaga as well, so there must be a good reason for using it
I can't really find a use for it even today. I wish they had put some other useful instructions in there instead
Only 66? 😉
How about the "double zeropage wraparound" of the (zp,X) addressing mode 😉
You are going to need a new project soon 😉 Oh yeah, one of my 187 WIP projects... 🫣
That's actually not too bad at all! Does this version have some of your modifications/optimisations already?
Thanking you kindly! 🤗
Yet these limitations produce creative solutions even 40 years later 💪
It's a stable raster with perfectly timed colour palette changes in the 24us of hblank. Btw, the Elk has a fixed interlaced PAL display, another challenge for any demo coder 😎
Weird as in character cell based. 8 bytes down, then move 1 char cell to the right, another 8 bytes in that cell, and so on. Would have loved a simple scanline based format
That's the way it should be!
Only 8 colours in a 4 colour screen mode 😉
Definitely not. Just a single binary running on a bog standard Electron in ultra slow screen MODE 1 😎
It does but only in multiples of 64 bytes. And the Electron has a weird screen format
Reminds me of my own journey 6+ years ago when I found my childhood Electron in the loft. Good luck and have fun!
They are practically indestructible 😄 (You probably already know this but if you need help, there is always the Stardot forum)
😉

Cheers! 💪😎
Thanks! Nothing compares to the real thing so I hope you can bring your Electron back eventually 👍
🤣
We will never know, but we can still make cool things for the Electron now =)
🤣 Ooh nice! That was the best feeling of having one of my games released on physical media so I could pretend to be a bedroom coder in the 80s 😆
Nice to see my demo effect "in the wild" on a real Electron. What can I say... it's magic! 😎
That should be fixed now 💪
Thanks! Do you mean the misalignment between the mouse pointer and e.g. menu items or something else altogether?
Minor update to Electroniq (online Acorn Electron emulator) 0xc0de6502.github.io/electroniq/
* More GPU friendly (at least my laptop no longer sounds like it is ready to take off!)
* Fixed misalignment when scaling browser window
* Added "export RAM" option
Very nice! 🍪
