| @sasq: You call *this* "very oldschool"? Haven't you seen any demos from, say 1990?! |

Oswald:
-yup, it's an escher. TBH, I should have credited http://escherdroste.math.leidenuniv.nl/ for the original video that I then scrolled around and compressed; ran out of time for doing a proper credits section.
-it's single buffered mostly because it takes less than 10,000 cycles to decompress a frame and I frame sync and decrunch from top to bottom so you never see a mix of two. There are 120 frames altogether, displayed at 50fps.
-the last part I ripped the level data from Driller (albeit by playing the game and doing a week of surveying and trig!). It's 100% realtime, and runs about three times faster than the original game.
-Both the julia and the last part could have been a bit faster, but I only just had time to get them working in time. The julia has the tightest iteration I could manage while maintaining 8 bit accuracy (otherwise I'd ditch the SEC!), but the plot is not ideal and I also compute 'outside the circle'. The last part could do with some optimisation on the hidden surface removal.
-Thanks for the compliment!

| very promising :) is that an escher picture in the endless zoomer part? awesome idea :) although double buffer should have been used, mixing the current and the upcoming frame to hide the depack speed looks ugly. mixes up the nicely converted frames. Or this is a new trick and there are no frames 100% stored just partially ? interesting :) the julia fractal is lightning fast, and at the last part I wonder if its just a rip from the older games, is it precalculated, or is it 100% realtime and self done ? Id love to know the answers :) codewise the best demo from lcp imho. the rest is very weak. |

| The zoomer alone gave it a nine in my book, the fractal was also cool. ChristopherJam: Please make another release, your code surely could compete with the best. |

| the zoomer did indeed impress, and the quite fast animated julia. |
