It'd be nice to do a different compo perhaps.

Compo idea: "Only d020".

+1 on waiting for after X, though.

Only ROM fonts? So, not necessarily petscii, as there'd be no restrictions on ECM/multicolour/FLI dma/stretching/etc

Atari VCS 2600, the C-64 compo?

I do have an oldish idea for an ECM entry, though, but didn't have the time when the compo was on. It's still on the list, but somewhat low-priority wrt other projects.

Would be great. You can never get enough rasterbars. It might be a little 2600'ish, but the machines have enough differences that you can't just replicate effects from that platform.

A bunch of ideas [you're welcome]:

• Vertical logo compo (any mode, would be cool to see 8 sprites overlay on top of a FLI stripe etc.)
• Physics compo – whatever FX involving springs, collisions etc.
• $3fff compo – push the ghostbyte to the limits
• ISOMETRIC compo – whatever GFX or FX that uses axonometric projection
• line drawing compo – best/fastest line drawing routine (think Cruzer's sprite lines)
• AI compo – anything generated by/with the help of AI

Or a path finding compo?
Total RAM usage limited for all entries and subcategories for speed and size.
But then again, this might be a bit too complex as it would require some set up framework blabla. Just dropping in with that idea that also has some potential 'future use' :)

One thing is for sure: the more esoteric the topic and the more specific the rules and requirements, the more entries that compo will have :)
