One-File Demo. Featuring fabulous PETSCII graphics.

I don't really see the problem here. Scrolling and animations have both been featured in petscii-compos before.
The odd things here are the addition of music (which was shut off during the compo) the red lines and the fact that the scrolling isn't 100% static and barebones.
These details enchances the experience, but I still think the quality of the piece stands for itself.

Putting the question wether this was a legit entry in the PETSCII compo aside, this is a slick piece of PETSCII action I find appealing.

However, I also think this belongs into some other category than GFX/PETSCII.

It's pretty similar to the "why did you compliment the reception of your music work using graphics" discussion we already had some time ago.

Yeah, the piece can be so extraordinarily big that it requires scrolling the screen, but if there are animated parts like inscriptions, bloodstains etc. then it's hardly "just a graphic" anymore.

A great one, however, no doubts, I love it. 10/10.

This is lovely!

Some thoughts: The music wasn't played in the compo. BBS graphics often scrolls and sometimes it's animated. The amount of work put into the picture is proportional to its size. Just my $0.02...

I second AG's comment.

Just Great! But how with animations, scroll and music can be part of a graphic compo? It is not a demo/intro?
