Great work...you make me want to buy one and start coding on it as well as the c64. It's on my to do list, right after I buy a pal c64 and get it working with some monitor in color.
Your work with the DTV is really outstanding, I love the demo which features character plasma in 256 colors. Beautiful. Plasma takes on new life on a 64 with 4x the colors. Keep it up Shadow!!
I did some C64 asm programming when I was 15 or so. But as soon as I got to 16bit and not much later 32bit programming, I'd never go back a step, leave alone 8bit. It's just such a pain in the ass, all that number juggling with only 8 bit registers to achieve anything interesting :-D And then the unpleasant graphics memory layout etc...
Since the CPU itself isn't any faster, i wonder which of the DTVs bonus features is used to make effects like the interference and the vectorcube. Do the DMA commands help with this?

Very nicely done! My dot plotter has 100 dots in it, not 1500 :P

Nice i like .
I knew the the dtv can do 256 colours as compaiied to the original c64 only doing 16 at once that object at the end suprised me but pretty cool .

You guys must be masochists ;-)

The 3D vector relies heavily on the blitter.
The Interference effect just uses one of the new DTV gfx modes in a clever way! :)

Looks really good. Maybe the best DTV demo I have seen so far.
