Release info
------------
Name: There Are No Limits
Platform: ZX-81 with atleast 16kb expansion
Release Date: 2009-12-20
Code: Andreas Gustafsson aka. Shadow/Noice

History behind this demo
------------------------
This is (at least to my knowledge) a world first for the ZX81,
a new graphics mode, with 192 independently selectable 'tiles'
(or rather lines) of 256x1 pixels which makes it possible to do some nice 
demostyle effects at full res, full framerate!
I had the proof-of-concept-code running before my last ZX81 demo
"Somewhat Less Limited Capabilities", but since it requires quite
a lot of memory (unrolled code is a must) I couldn't squeeze it in.
Note that no hires-addon or other hardware mods is needed.

How to run it
-------------
Run the .81 file in your ZX-81 emulator of choice (EightyOne recommended).
Remember to enable 16kb expansion!
If you are the lucky owner of some real hardware, you can play the MP3 file
which you can find on my homepage from your computer or an mp3-player to 
load it via the cassette-interface on the ZX-81. Note that it will take almost
SEVEN minutes to load the 16kb binary...

Additional info
---------------
Created with sjasmplus + my own little ZX81 linker.
