#lovebyte2025 — Public Fediverse posts

It's not easy to fit a pleasant vista into precisely 256 text characters, but I did it for "A Pleasant Vista", my entry into the jam-packed Text Graphics Competition at @lovebyteparty 2025!

"Archimedean Echoes" 256 bytes for RISC PC+ / #riscos 3MB+ for #lovebyte2025

Multilayered "Appolonian Net" with horizontal parallax scrolling, patterns are produced with the HAKMEM 149 algorithm. (All integers)

"Bloom 612" a 256 bytes #Dreamcast procedural graphics shown at #lovebyte2025

3x additive HAKMEM 149 algorithm (all integers) progressively scaled up which render a blooming 🌺

"Dreamelt" 128 bytes #Dreamcast intro shown at #lovebyte2025

This uses the HAKMEM 149 algorithm, it draws with a fixed color and has a screen clearing pass that decreases the framebuffer values continually which result in colors cycling along frames.

Also released a 64 bytes #acornarchimedes intro with the same algorithm although it doesn't have the screen clearing pass : https://www.onirom.fr/wiki/codegolf/archismall/

"The Cube is A Lie" 256 bytes intro (including 32b program header) for 1985 #AtariST shown at #lovebyte2025

Demonstration of an iterative way to plot a rotating wireframe cube showing two faces at most without initial data by exploiting the square <> hexagon transition of the HAKMEM 149 algorithm.

Refined version of the one in previous toot.
