Restricting to VICE "full borders" should be sufficient, i guess.

Quoting JackAsser
C128 no. Single file. Single fx, variations allowed. Upper limit of REU is 2 MiB
Okay, so the two megabytes need to be filled algorithmically from whatever you have in 64K of main RAM? Sounds alright! =)

I saw it mentioned elsewhere and thought.. hhm you can't use the SCREEN even. what does that give you?

I think it's too limiting . unless someone has a trick up their sleeve , but there are some very decent coders amongst you, who can do something..

GOOD LUCK

Just upload it and connect it to be released in this compo. You can alway pull it if you want to submit another entry. Your old entry will ofc always linger on CSDb but will not be part of the compo.

BTW, you still need to consider a couple pixels "safe area". see my comment here. contrary to socis statement it is not the emulators that are wrong - it is the monitors being different, which is why safe areas exist :) (and the screenshot is not showing how it looks in VICE)

It’s not about the borders but about touching the inner normal screen which has very well defined limits. A couple of pixels here and there to handle timimg is ok. How far out in the borders are up to you. I do recommend not to extend further than VICE full borders though.

Or did I miss your point Groepaz?

Given the one single effect vs. game with a title screen debate for the Only Sprites compo, worth being a bit more prescriptive on what "all visual effects" means, or can it be as elaborate and extensive as you want as long as the mainscreen isn't used?
