Dracon Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 Hello all Atari 8-bit fans ! I'm glad to let you know there are full sources of NUMEN demo freely available. To get that stuff you have to point your web-browser at: http://numen.scene.pl and it is at the bottom of the screen ! And here are some words from README.TXT: We hope that this stuff will be useful for people who create new demos and/or games. We think that writing 8-bit software is now much easier than 20 years ago. Nevertheless, you *do* need good knowledge of the 6502 assembly language and Atari hardware. All sources are original, same as used in final version of "Numen" a year ago. We haven't added any comments nor documentation that could help you understand them. Some comments are in Polish. Many 6502 programmers may be surprised by some strange mnemonics in code, like MVA: they are xasm-specific. (...) We had great fun creating our demo. We know that final product is not ideal, but we still like it. In our opinion it's far from technical limitations of Atari 8-bit hardware. We already have many new ideas, so don't say that "Numen" was our last word. We want you to be creative. Don't make just another clone of "Boulder Dash" or "Numen". Use your imagination. And the most important: finish your work. Anyway, have fun & take care ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
