[Sdw]

A new demoscene production for the 2600 was released recently:

(PAL only as usual with most scene demos)

 

Some really impressive effects combining playfield and player/missile graphics in clever ways.

Very cool, thanks for sharing. Love those small ships towards the end of the demo.

Those ships are very cool looking.

Is PAL used not just because of the region of development but easier timing?

[Tjoppen]

Region mostly. More VBLANK time is also a plus.

I was hoping that vertically scrolling circle was a demonstration of a 48+ pixel sprite. I'm thinking it's not possible though, right?

[Godzilla]

that was awesome!

[+iesposta]

love!

For obvious reasons I also like the short wireframe part and hope to see more from that.

Try ALT+ZXCVBN to find out!

Very nice one

Though I dont fancy 32KB stuff on the 2600, this really makes nice use of it coming with that many parts

So I am very happy that Ulli sneaked in my scroller part as well \o/

Absolutely. But I also liked those wavy screen very much. Would love to see those things in a game.

I agree, I'm probably most impressed by any type of 3D wireframes in a 2600 cart.

Those ships at 2:55 are awesome.

[Nognir]

Really great demo! I'm totally impressed by some of the effects in the video

[PFL]

I really like to tune. Has a really nice Jean Michel Jarre thingy going on. Those ship sprites look like they're straight of a C64. Amazing stuff as always from TRSi. Tanks for sharing.
