Waffles of Math Construction by Alcatraz [web] & Desire [web]
Waffles of Math Construction ---------------------------- by Desire and Alcatraz ---------------------- A 64k Amiga OCS intro for the Black Valley 2022 intro competition. Started out as compo filler three weeks ago. Again. Must stop doing this. This is the unfinished party version. A final release is planned where all the missing effects and polish have been added (there's almost four KB of space left!). Thanks for everyone involved for getting this ready on such short notice. Requirements ~~~~~~~~~~~~ MC68000, OCS, 512 KB Chip, 512 KB Fast (probably). Tech Tech ~~~~~~~~~ Calculation of AmigaKlang samples is done the intro is already playing. The sample rendering finishes "just in time". The module uses 157 KB of samples. Chip mem usage is less than 400 KB in total. The waffles are rendered using a "shader" pipeline at 128x128 pixel resolution. For the big waffles four subpixel accurate frames are calculated, for the small waffles the subpixel accuracy is even a quarter-pixel. A total of 160 frames of animation are rendered in the background while the intro is running. The waffles are placed onto the screen using the blitter. 14 passes are necessary to provide a signed addition with saturation at top and bottom. The rest of the effects consists of various cellular automata, calculated via the blitter.
