Perfect! I’ve been looking for something to divert my son away from the tedious Vaporwave bilge he’s getting into, this Demoscene stuff fits the bill nicely.

Thanks @beschizza!

Kinda sounds like the beginning of kernkraft 400…
It’s amazing people are still finding awesome things to do with their comadores 64’s

That’s a lot of song in 256 bytes.

The first real computer (in the modern sense), the Manchester Baby, only had 32 words of program/data memory, but it had many programs written for it.

I fully expect to see this in the next season of Stranger Things.

Oh, that reminds me! Halt & Catch Fire has a final season coming.
