Letting users tweak parameters for dot plots was pretty common back in the day (eg the dot plotter in Mixer (1989)), but it sounds like that misses your complexity metric? |

Quoting ChristopherJambut it sounds like that misses your complexity metric? Yes, it does. :)
A somewhat less arbitrary metric would be "release date not before 1990", unless somebody digs out a 198x demo with controllable vector objects or something. |

One Year Crest
1st part after the intro, DYCP can be controlled with a joystick. 2nd part: sideborder tech-tech control with joystick. 4th part: sideborder sprite scroll speed. 5th part: joy up/down: sprite multiplexer control. left/right: scroll speed. 7th part: sprites can be controlled. |

How is that different from "i was not aiming at old-timey low-complexity things (where "animation" is obviously ruled out) allowing you to control raster splits or DYCP movements and stuff like that"? |

Well, DYCP records are often supposedly broken with speedcode that only allows a particular path.. |

you are right, wrong example. But the others linked some crazy cool stuff, would be nice to see similar things in the new prods.
(What if someone created a new compo for demos with user mode? :-) ) |

Quoting ChristopherJamWell, DYCP records are often supposedly broken with speedcode that only allows a particular path.. "Supposedly" :) Where's the entry in The Book insisting on how it must be done?
But there weren't that many user-controllable parts in the 80s anyways, so scratch the arbitrary distinction of "proving real-time rendering" for the purposes of this thread. =)
Quoting zscs(What if someone created a new compo for demos with user mode? :-) ) Tbh, terrible idea. :) |
