"I didn't have any other demos. I went to the same high school as the guy who wrote the music.
As far as I can remember, I didn't have an assembler for Plus/4, so this was written using the built in monitor.
I switched over to C=64 relatively early; coded two or three games with a couple of friends. Then I switched to Amiga, but I didn't develop on it. Finally PC, and as an adult I only develop business applications.
The name "Logge" - I picked it based on a nickname I had in real life, but I stopped using it.
I only had minimal connection to the "scene", I visited Csokonai Művház a few times.
Most of my memories from this era are related to the C64: I'm still amazed what we could pull off without the internet or any proper documentation. One of the coolest things we did was a connection between two machines. During a game's development, once there wasn't enough memory to hold both the assembler and the code; we created a homemade cable between two RS232 ports. One machine was running the assembler, the other had a small boot loader which loaded the game's data, and then copied the compiled code via the cable. We didn't even know what a "protocol" was, but we managed to create our own communication between the machines, using the simple fact that one bit written on one end appeared on the other. :-)" |
