Although I have to wonder. Sorry for the double posting, but I notice this is run on an Emulator, and exhibits some graphical artifacts. I wonder if it'd run any better on a real VIC-20?

Which artefacts do you mean? I've run this demo on a real VIC-20 (or VC-20 here in Germany) and noticed no differences. If you could tell me which ones you mean, I'll double-check tomorrow.

During the Portal sequence. When the first portal moves to the top and the second apears at 1:40, the first portal does not appear smoothly, the colors change smoothly in the top portal at 1:44 but the bottom one has a few blocks lingering, and at 1:50 a stray block of ... whatever... appears in the bottom portal.

At 2:00, during the three, the top portal again shows blocky "glitches". At 2:08, a phanotm top portal repaints, as well.

Maybe I'm being too nitpicky though, as it's still awesome.

I think it's the same on the real thing ... but then again ... I'll make sure later on.

I've put up a recording from my real VIC-20 ... showing the same artefacts.

dude if they had your talent back then, the games on this system would have been a legendary mind fuck of awesomeness

Maybe that's a hidden text?

Felchqueen: Viznut doesn't believe in RAM expansions. See Impossiblator 2. The marque says "Memory Expansions Still Suck!"

In other news, holy hell. Awesomeness.

Very nice technology. Dig the music!

RAM packs are for lamahs!
