mutil8 Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 looking through various atari 8 bits for sale on ebay I ran across a picture of (apparently) a game running on an 800xl. If this is legitimate can anyone give a brief description of how these graphics were done? I dont recall every seeing equivalent of this on an atari 8 bit.
