Good news everyone!
I had 3 entries at lovebyte 2022 (https://lovebyte.party/) and now they are available to watch them at home :)
A 128 byte intro:

A 64 byte intro:

A 16 byte intro:

The first one is cool.
Thumbs up for that they run on a regular CPC. And I like the fact that they don't require a 512K expansion.
The 64 bytes is terrific :) Does it have a end ?
I found the cheatmode :
for x=0 to 15:ink x,x:next:mode 0:run"demo2
The 128 bytes has about the same cheatmode :
for x=0 to 15:ink x,x*1.5+1:next:mode 0:run"demo3

The demo ends at your personal hearing threshold :)

Running them in mode 0 makes them even prettier, hein? I think that your INK tricks look better on a green screen, guess that 2022 is the year of the return of the green screen.
I didn't test the colours on the green screen. I chose them on the colour screen (no fear).
Tonight, I am running the 64 bytes for 2 hours, really quiet...
A increased the colour palette :
1,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,15,16,17,24
Marvellous ! Take a drink, listen some Franck Zappa, and watch.
Just try it with fullscreen :
Reg 1,2,6,7 set to 48, 49, 37, 36

;D So speaks the connaisseur!
I think there was a thread on here about if it was possible to LOAD" (instead of RUN") and execute a binary without using CALL ..
Well, it seems that BSCDEMO9.16 (the 16 bytes) demo managed to pull that off, completely unintentional :)
Just try LOAD"DEMO3.BIN an see the magic happen.
The first to explain what's going on will win a greeting in one of my next scroll texts!
Easy to explain, that little program has a set start load address of 0000, and Amsdos seems like doing just this: it loads it to address 0000, overwriting RST 08, which is LO JUMP, and regularly called by the OS, hence automatically launching your demo :-)
damned ... a minute too late. Just looked at the file ;-)
This would probably not work if you have to load more than 1 sector/cluster?

The limit is far below a single sector, I found that the maximum number of bytes you may load without getting a Memory Full is exactly &40 bytes on a 6128 after a fresh reset.
