#Oric forever!

Thank to my players I now have a "User Score" on Metacritic.

I unfortunately can't have a Metascore because no "serious" publication has reviewed the game.

Somebody suggested that I should use my credentials, like "Ex developer from Adeline Software, Eden Game and Funcom" ⤵️

This is my release candidate for the Encounter manual, I did my best in term of proof reading, but I'm not a native English speaker so most probably it contains weird sounding sentences, so if anyone feels like doing a quick check, would be awesome!🙏

... but can #Oric play #DOOM - at-least the MIDI sound is incredible with #Oricon new #MIDI_2 shield! I'm very happy with the result! 😎

A new video showing tools to allow Oric to play Protracker 3 files in the background from C language.
The Oric has a decent sound chip, I think it does a good job here, and now super easy to add high quality tracks to your games!

While watching a video from "The 8bit Theory" about C128/VDC RPG development, found out that there's a disgression about the 6502 QR code generator, which links to @oric_iss Oric version and then it mentions Encounter

What do RPGs and this channel have in common? A (good) storyline!

Someone compiled a C program natively directly on an Oric computer.

Twilighte games were also only released in digital form, I can't send him these physical ones since he passed away in 2013, so these will go to his family instead.

Chema Enguita has given the Oric community quite a few extremely good games, but they have only existed digitally so far, so here is my way of thanking him!

I've modded my homebrew - too many peripherals makes it unstable I think. So no more real time clock, but kept the 6551 ACAI for serial.
This video shows a custom file transfer protocol to get files from the PC onto the homebrew!

It's been ages since I did anything with my 6502 homebrew computer, so here is a video about benchmarks against classic machines from back in the day - always a controversial topic!😂

Finished years ago, released today 😅

I'm back from Sommarhack... had to finish the demo on the party place so it's kind of glitchy and not quite what I had in mind originally, but heck, at least i made the deadline!

And yes, some people will hate it, I'm used to that 😅

#emul8 (emulator for #Oric): experimenting with a crazy idea "graphics accelerator" for BASIC ~33% faster😀and easy to implement! Set trap on "LINE" func entry, draw line in video mem, set new PC to RTS. That's all!(left normal BASIC, right accelerated).
