[orby]

Hello all,

This is Orby from the demogroup DESiRE. We take old hardware and make it do things that everyone thought were impossible  . We are interested in doing a megademo for the PCE and are looking for experienced coders on the platform and other creative individuals who are interested in collaborating.

You can read about our latest release for the TI-99/4A on hackaday at

or just watch the Youtube video of it at

We anticipate being able to do some much more impressive things with the awesome little piece of hardware that is the PCE

If you're interested in participating and think you'll have some time to work on such a thing, drop me a line at orbitaldecay@gmail.com, or reply to this post. Thanks!

I like it, cool effects on the old 4A, and the music is very good too, a little bit irritating on some sounds but catchy .

Thanks! We're proud of what we accomplished. Definitely turned some heads in the 4A community. Hoping to do the same here

Cool! Do you have some examples of your work?

[Michirin9801]

I wouldn't mind contributing with a piece of art, so long as you don't mind cutesy 90s anime art of course...

[Dicer]

OMG demoscene, love love love this stuff, people jump on int and make something great...

[Arkhan]

You need any musical assistance?   

I probably won't have alot of time to do anything code related (bonknuts or elmer is probably better for the hardware pushing stuff anyway), but I could help with music or sound related stuff.

Any other details on this yet?

Cool stuff, it would be great to see something on the PCE.

Man those are rad, I'd love to work on some space shooter techie stuff, but I doubt I could make it look as rad as those! Well done!

Musical assistance is welcome. We have a few musicians and artists in our group that may also be able to contribute material, but the more the merrier Right now we are seeing if there is interest in doing this and if it is feasible to get a team together. No other details to speak of yet.

That sounds interesting. We haven't decided on a theme yet, but an anime styled theme could be very cool. Post some of your stuff

To everyone: if you are interested in participating but are not available this week, or this month, we are not operating under any particular deadlines. The window for completion is probably something more like 6 months to 1 year. After all, we're mostly adults with jobs and other responsibilities... unfortunately

This is so cool you guys!!  I hope ccovell gets into this as well.

Here's a 2bpp artwork for the GBC I did a while back: http://orig04.deviantart.net/4a74/f/2016/281/d/d/valkyrie_the_power_beauties_on_gbc__mockup__by_michiharuruko-dakcsrn.png
(Note: The sprites have 6 colours as opposed to the usual 3 because they're 2 sprites on top of one another)

A fanart for Henshin Engine I did: http://orig05.deviantart.net/d601/f/2016/351/8/f/yuki_shirokawa__henshin_engine__by_michiharuruko-darxbjv.jpg

The cover of my album that I also drew: http://orig14.deviantart.net/8513/f/2016/360/f/d/_album__cybertech_custom_covers_by_michirin9801-dasyg03.jpg

And a screen-cap of an animation I'm currently working on: http://orig02.deviantart.net/645e/f/2017/028/f/b/capture_by_michirin9801-dax3fjt.png

I can easily draw 4bpp artwork too btw, I just don't have anything presentable that reflects what I can currently do...

I love the style, and the detail ... Beautiful!
