I hope you'll enjoy this quick release of Worship! A better version shall
come (sooner or) later, with cleaned code. Not much to say, except that it
contains a bichannel bicubic delta plasma in the background, and this is the
only interesting effect in the demo. All in all the demo looks nice, though
i prefer WishYouWereBeer (better routines, better name...).
I met Unison in the barracks while doing my military service, he brought
his Amiga and we started working on a 8Kb Chip-Music Disk. It would have been
called worship (Whore-Chip ;). I also had a gfx made by Exocet by that time
(a modified version of MrOeuf). But then a GirlFriend (Angelique) fall upon
me, and my mind was elsewhere! ;) I mean i was still coding during WE, but
not the same way and the project was stopped (sorry Unison). We barely saw
ourselves, and he got has other projects. Then my GirlFriend left me down
(the who..! No, just "joking", we left on good terms and she is very kind ;),
and i was at last able to code again! Yeaaaaaaaaah! So i went on small
projects, till 2000may31. In a mail to Pervect (hi) i said the 8Kb compo of
CodeCraft #2 was a failure, and i didn't feel like finishing it. He answered
that some others were finishing their entries, and no i HAD to finish my
demo. He made a lot of cheering up, and at last here it is.
Again MANY MANY THANX to Eli-Jean (aka Pervect/Topix) for all the energy
he put in CodeCraft #2, and the motivation he carries with him. And also for
being such an impressive CodeCraftMan.
Btw, i have some ideas for CodeCraft #3! Hummm, i have another girlfriend
in the pipeline, hope she will let me down before CC#3's deadline! ;)
---- More news on 2000jun04 ----
I removed the version with music since Topix felt it was unfair for coders
who used separate module player and module file (it was in the More directory
though, so not breaking the rules). I could have made a version with such
music system, but:
1. My own music system as seen in "Wish You Were Beer" (btw it has been
updated recently) is quite stable and allows to have a desktop music
player without killing it/removing the tune currently played.
2. The one proposed by Topix is complying to the rules, but very boring,
because the extra code needed is really uninteresting.
3. I simply don't have time & courage.
So i simply removed the music in this archive. Sorry Eli-Jean, i hope you
won't mind all the fuss. You made a great job for CodeCraft #2, thanks
again for all. :)
cu, Alain
