This is just an old little screen that was lying around on a floppy disk since 1993 and which was never released. It finally came out on November 30, 2014, with its source code.

It was a first for me: this is where I discovered overscan. The top and bottom borders are opened, and the picture is 274 lines high instead of 200 (the side borders stay closed).

Code by Dyno and logo by Skywalker, both from Exo7, an Atari ST demo group from the south-west of France and a member of the Euroswap alliance. The music is “970 Bytes” by Jess / Overlanders, and it weighs exactly that, replay routine included. Packed with Pack-Ice, the whole program takes 3,680 bytes.

The CODEF version

Mellow Man ported this screen to CODEF, the JavaScript demo framework.
