Fat Circuits - a 40K intro for Amiga 
500 with 512K+512K. No guarantees for
other configurations, but we did test
it on some.

------------8<-----------------

In 2022, transistors in consumer 
technology were made on a '3 nanometer'
process.

(Yes, we know it's not actually 3 nm. 
Probably more like 20-25 I guess? Still 
pretty damn small)

The 68000 was made in 1979, and its 
transistor gates were 3500 nanometers.

(Actual size)

..and the 6502 was even fatter

(8 microns or so, IIRC)

Some new effects here, and some old.
And some are twists on well-known 
effects, like the rota-scopes.
The colourful balls are just an anim.
But atleast it's realtime precalced
(uh?)
