Madness!

That's my favorite because conceptually it's this whole thing in just 64b. The stars in the copper sky, the walk through this revolving thing that is xor but has at least good shadowing. Just wow!

Great, a proper 3D scene in 64 bytes, not just an abstract effect.

Very nice job!

that's pretty next level for 64b; the composition with the background and stars really adds to it

Capture on Real Hardware - FreeDos 0.84 pre

Added to the archive:

Star Path 64 bytes - commented source

Star_Real - 64 bytes (commented source)
- 64 bytes - Synced to timer, 18 FPS, ESC support, dithering
Star_Pure 57 byte (commented source)
- 57 bytes - Smallest version, template for remixing

I am aware that there still might be hardware setups/
circumstances where this does not run properly
in which case i suggest you contact me or patch the 57 bytes yourself
- also you can customize your own starpath audiovisually with that =)

Definitely one of the highlights of the event. I like the presence of the gradient sky with stars, as if it was something casually added just because there were a few bytes left :)

Amazing, so much going on here.

there is now a 55 bytes version in the archive ;)

i also did a small writeup (to be extended soon) :

By the way, contrary to common belief, no XOR was used in this intro ;)

i quickly threw together a Python Port on Google Colab which also can generate an animated GIF. It's not meant to be perfectly coded or exactly emulating the assembler instructions, it just produces the same image(s)

Looks fine but is it a real DOS product if it requires a Cray OLCF-3 or something to be watchable?
Awesome!!!
