I want to show you today a Commodore Plus/4 demo because I don’t think I posted one before.
After a bit of scrutiny I decided to post my favourite one. This demo is short but sweet. I love the design of the high-res graphics (specially the one in the begining) and the crunchy TED beats, only in two channels. You can get a SID add-on for the Plus/4 but de-facto it brings nothing but this multiputpose chip called TED
The Plus/4 was better than the C64 in terms of colors, it can push many more onscreen from a much bigger palette. Also it was almost 2 times faster, however I think scrolling and other smooth effects of the C64 are sadly missing in the Plus/4. All in all, I think it was a sadly underrated and abandoned little computer. I had one but I never used it, and the remains of it, we destroyed back stage at Blip 2008 :P
I leave you now with the demo!

Man, I love this demo. I wish the Plus/4 could have some proper music software written for it.
Hi
Sure, but this demo only uses the sound chip as DAC.
So the pulse and noise wavs are moslty silent throughout.
