Workprint – November 2019

Just a quick post to mark the new month since I’m trying to get back into the habit. The main news this time is that a new iteration of Didi/Laxity’s Intro Creation Competition started up yesterday over at the CSDb and this time it comes in two flavours; both share most of the same rules but, along with the original 16K variant comes a new 4K category where the entire intro has to run from just 4,096 bytes of memory. That does sound limiting partly because it is, but sound is optional for 4K entries to make things a little easier.

Since I like this competition a little bit of [ahem] encouragement has been sent out to a few people as regards writing an entry or two already and, so far at least, nobody has told me to naff off because of it so that’s a positive!

As for myself, I’ve already got several notes about ideas for both categories, a fair bit of prototype code running and even some nearly finished intros including a feature complete 4K entry which is just waiting on some preset data. That should materialise on the interwebs very soon, possibly even tomorrow if all goes to “plan” and the siren call of the Columbo box set that’s been borrowing a lot of my free time doesn’t start up again…
