It's done! I have just released the Compendium version of #Elite for the #Acorn #Electron.

This massively enhanced version of the original game contains pretty much every feature of #BBCMicro Elite, but on the Electron. Just add 16K of sideways RAM.

Links in thread.

Feature list for the Compendium version of Acorn Electron Elite

My new version of #Acorn #Electron #Elite is feature-complete! Now for some testing.

Here's the feature list. It’s big! Big enough that this is effectively a Compendium version of Electron Elite; to sit proudly alongside the #BBCMicro Compendia. 🫡

Not long now!

My favourite musician that ever lived just died 😭. Rest in peace Sylvester Stewart!
I will never forget the first time I heard 'You can make it if you try'. It was one of the best moments in my life and I will never forget that feeling. Fly high Sly! #slystone

Electroniq Acorn Electron emulator

Electroniq WIP. New and improved version online. Now handles anything a real Acorn Electron can (famous last words). If you don't get a stable 50fps (looking at you Firefox) please try a different browser (or system 😉). Any issues? Let me know here or on github... 0xc0de6502.github.io/electroniq/

I use TinyTake, it works pretty well for recording emulator windows with sound, and I refuse to update it in case of any changes that might netf it.

After 10 years - and the reason I started my art and my art program to solve this - today I finally set out to do what I wanted - in code. A poster fell off the wall one day that I bought. As I sat on the bed looking at the wall I thought 'Could the Acorn GXR Rom re-create that?'. I have arrived.
