Apple IIgs Fire Demo
Fri, 02/19/2010 - 17:07  dagen

I finally got around to hammering out a little demo to keep me warm on these cold winter nights.

The code is a bit of a mess but it was mostly to see if I could do it and pull of a convincing version of the classic Fire Demo so prevalent in 1990's demos.

I've uploaded a Prodos disk image that you can download and use with an emulator or transfer. Trust me it looks way cooler running on your real GS. The disk also contain full source code. No critiquing please, but you are welcome to send in improvements or discuss it on the comp.sys.apple2.programming newsgroup.

Keys 0-9 change the number of vblanks to wait between updates. Hit "S" for ultra-cheapo sound effects if you want the fire to crackle. Any other key quits.

Here's a little video I uploaded to youtube of it running in xkegs (my first youtube upload btw).

Stay warm!
