The graphics are no problem whatsoever but the sound would be completely beyond me. Listening to the original (non-8 bit) version shows the song to have a vocal so if that weren't the case I'd probably do the graphics in 4x4 blocks in Mode 2 and get that whole footprint down to 10kb or so, then

That's exactly the build system I use, except that I'd managed to misplace my copy of dos. A quick call to open at the end and I'm straight into Sim Coupe, or at least I used to be. The SDL you've linked with appears to be broken under 10.7 in some ways, especially relating to the way the new OS

Yes there is a vocal. The problem is that 4x4 is too low resolution to reproduce the original animation with all detail. You actually need 2x2 to reproduce the whole original or 3x3 if you can live with parts being cut on top and bottom. btw. Why MGT designed mode 2 this way instead of

If it's for some sort of quick attempt at multipart megademo (albeit with all the parts being extremely similar), would it be safe to assume that someone [else] is working on the music? I'd love to be able to contribute but music is completely beyond me. Re: Aley's comments on a 4bpp 64-byte
