There's really a hook on this thingy. ;)
Such a simple scroller is OK or a simple screen message like greetings. But no music, no color effects, no additional graphics/animations, splits, etc. (Nitpickers will come up that a $d016 split is needed to make a scroller.)

Nice font G-Fellow. I can say, that i can read it on the real thing. But nowaday i have my C64 connected via S-Video. I wanted to create a 1 pixel thick lined font for this compo too.

thing is 1 hires pixel vertical lines were hardly visible back in the day, now it looks cool in the emu era, but I still have the feeling from the heydays that its just wrong. on a crt telly this would be a hardly readable font.

Like Didi/Laxity sayd, it is really hard to do a new charset after all this years.
I did every char on my own, but I saw hundreds of charsets since 1984, It can be that something influence me.

I hope a scrolltext is not against the rules, because it is a charset, it makes sense to me to use a scrolltext.
