Hello from another oldie

[SiMono]

Hello all

I'm Simon - I'm another of the old skool (38yo), had a 1.3 Amiga 500 soon after it came out and later an A1200; still have them both but they don't get much use these days.

I used to be a coder in the demo scene (1992-1995ish), handle was Trixter and I was in a few groups, notably Futura and LSD. Many of the prods I worked on are listed and archived at:

http://bitworld.bitfellas.org/demos.php?query=Trixter&strict=yes
http://bitworld.bitfellas.org/demos.php?query=Futura&where=group&strict=yes

When I get a decent chunk of free time I'll stick the 68000 source code to those up online somewhere (it's all on 880k disks and needs converting to PC before the media rots!).

I still write graphics code, but these days it's work and it's for games consoles.

Hello and welcome

I used to dream about doing proper demo assembly back then, but all it ever amounted to was a few tight loops in Blitz Basic

What consoles do you work on now?

Thanks for the welcomes

@slk486: most recently Xbox360 & PS3, with a sprinkling of PS Vita and a bunch of other platforms in the past.

@-Acid-: howdo! Live in the Toon now but originally from Manchester (but that's still Northern enough )
