Acetaminophen by The Orz
ACETAMINOPHEN by The Orz 256 bytes Acorn Archimedes intro for @party 2023 RPI (acetam): mode 28 640x480 this version (party version) do some sort of additive blend between circles Archimedes (archie): mode 13 320x256 256 colors this version has some sort of drop shadow on the circles, it is faster than additive blend, works best on ARM3, my initial target was ARM2 but it is slow due to lack of cache i guess although params such as thickness, density / iterations and nb of circles can be adjusted so it runs fine on early hw on ARM2 12mhz 101 iterations + 3 density works ok but trade quality for speed initial idea was lit off by optimus with his 2023 512b Ibuprofen entry, coded the effect later on as a JS prototype but with minsky display hack for the circles, i had no plan to do something with it but stumbled upon optimus entry again and took the challenge to do it in 256b since i thought that ARM with its barrel shifter would be at ease with minsky ~84 bytes taken by the RO API calls alone (screen setup, double buffer, vsync, escape, exit...) sources for the archie version is bundled into .adf code by grz greetings to optimus and all sizecoders 16/06/2023
