Avventura 1 (Fantasy) - Versione Commerciale (2024)
This is the commercial release of "Avventura 1" game, one of the first italian CRPG, translated in english with my music.
Main differences with the other version: you can save the game state on tape, you can stay at the tavern to rest how many week you want and use the F1 key to drink magic filter that heals wounds.
Avril 64th (2024)
A tribute to Avril 14th by Aphex Twin
I got the midi file from www.midm-database.co.uk and converted the notes to a slightly modified version of Cadaver's NinjaTracker2.
It randomizes every note decay and filter cutoff on the noise in order to have a barely perceptible different vibe for each reproduction.
A Tornado in the Kernal (2023)
This glitch made with 121 basic bytes got the silver medal at Transmission64 basic oneliner
competition.
Enjoy them on Mivar CRT.
Adventure 1 (2023)
I got the basic code of an RPG game I loved that was made in 1983, I translated it in English and revamped my best fantasy tunes by shoving them under the carpet of the basic ROM.
That's because I want to preserve and share this masterpiece with all of you and say thanks to Alessandro Castellari, wherever he is.
Dancing with the Basic (2022)
Beautiful strings live in ROM, I used some of them to feed the SID and the VIC and some crazy stuff comes out.

WE HAVE 2 JOYSTICK.
_WE HAVE 16 COLORS ON SCREEN.
__WE HAVE THE SPEECH SYNTHESIZER.
___WE HAVE THE DISKETTE SUPPORT.
