Very good idea. I have a friend who needs this sort of thing so she can move her kitchen table and have the chandelier centered wherever the table goes. I don't want to build one, so do you sell them? Write me at drogcl@aol.com. Thanks.

This may well be the best thing I have ever seen, in my life.

Where do I sign to sell my soul for one?

Very interesting stuff.

I have tried many levels here and all of the levels mentioned above by others, they all seem a bit on the easy side.

I wish it can generate really difficult levels.
I do mean, super difficult levels.

If you can price it for under £50 I think you'll make a shed load of money!!

Hi Linus
I tried to open your ift-phosor-src but I can't seem to open it.
After extracting using 7Zip the file shows an extension of "file" and that seems to be wrong. can you put the files in another format or post to Github or Google code?

I am very keen to have a look at your code and files as what you have achieved is amazing.
PS - Where did you get the crystal?

You're certainly a smart dude, I can only wish I had the drive to do all the stuff that you do.
Keep on keeping on!

Wow, this brought back some good memories. When I was a kid I played the demo over and over again.
I had forgotten about it since then up until now. I can't describe how happy I am now that I have found it again.
Kudos to you for building such a nice chipofone, mastering the tune and Jeroen for composing it in the first place.

If this is all true, a perfect solution would be to debug the program 10 years after you've wrote it...

However, you will be tempted to rewrite it because after those years the code will be rated down into the boring area, so you'll need another 10 years to wait to debug it.

No, that's completely contrary to my point. Was I really that unclear?

Work at your current capacity for ten years and your skills will improve only slightly. Spend ten years trying, with great effort, to work beyond your current capacity, and your skills will improve a lot. The tricky part is motivating yourself to spend that effort. This is common knowledge.

My article is about how software developers get this motivation for free by writing clever code.

would love to have the schematics for the mini-board and source files. I think they can be helpful for the C-one and Turbo Chameleon community.

[quote="utzig"One thing which is not very clear is why you chose Verilog and not VHDL.

Verilog is easier and quicker to get results...

A famous russian singer <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Vysotsky">Владимир Высоцкий</a> had a song about that: "лучше гор могут быть только горы, на которых ещё не бывал". The song is called "Прощание с горами".

Wanna build a custom sid emulator and replace the waveform specially for this tune. Unfortunately can't upload a sound file, so trying to describe the waveform in a few words: each halfwave is an arc of a circle; on zero-crosses the arc has 45° tangent line angle, like a sine wave. Sounds not so annoying as triangle wave, but still has many harmonics.
