I somehow can't quite quit the vicious 8bit circle I've fallen into recently, so bear with me for a little while, dear reader. Today I bring you a portion of lovely movies from 8-bit demoscene, some for my beloved ZX Spectrum, some for Commodore 64 and others, including a simple microcontroller (sic!).
It is just incredible what effects can be squeezed from these ancient and very limited machines. Forget about colour clash, forget about hardware limitations, just sit down and enjoy your ride. It's actually hard to say which one I like most - of course I have a soft spot for anything running on Sir Clive's invention, but each and every of them is impressive. For this post I have finally chosen the one that was visually most impressive (sorry, I am a very shallow man and visual beauty gets me every time):
See the rest of the demos here.
