@pikuma This is legit. I wrote a similar algorithm years ago and this is the first time I’ve seen someone else implement a character shape matching technique. Kudos!!!
@ryuichisakamoto This was the first sakamoto piece I ever heard, and it blew me away. It’s one of the most beautiful and unique pieces of music I’ve ever heard to this day.
@ScottApogee I started to learn how to code in TP7 after basic. There were a bunch of mode 13 tutorials for demoscene effects (Bas van Gaalen!) available on BBSs and that enabled me to learn by modifying/experimenting. Easy inline asm and tiny EXEs too!!
@pikuma Same! I started with flight simulator on a Timex Sinclair. Then “jet.exe”, msfs 1&2, Chuck Yeager’s AFS, etc. I remember staying up late as a kid poring over the thick manual for F-19 reading about durandal bombs!
@MrPrudence I love this. Especially given the anachronistic typewriter/character art thing.
I don’t want to get on a soap box or anything, but while I totally get the digital art ethos (and have even minted my own series of video ascii art pieces huzzah!) I just want to put stuff on my wall
