The #Atari 1200XL was a 8bit #homecomputer running a #MOS 6502 #CPU at 1.79 MHz. When this beautiful machine was launched in 1983 with 64Kb RAM the price was under thousand dollars, but... https://youtu.be/JyA5tA5mmYY

$omehow, in the #8bitwar the #C64 was much more popular even when specs been almost the same. The difference in #BASIC language was less significant for the success. Most likely that competition was won by #Commodore because Jack Tramiel took the advice of his grandfather so serious.

image is also just a grid of pixels.

That's when I realised I'm probably far from done with grids...

grounbreaking, but once you want to inset your shape and want to give it rounded corners, that becomes a whole different story.

Pretty sure that this is one of the prompts that will have its tentacles spreading throughout the coming year...

you'll need to run the project locally. The ffmpeg recorder is only available in development mode, as the wasm file is around 30MB. Didn't want to be pushing that to everybody's phone... Code is on my [GitHub](github.com/dxviie). Have fun!

that's not uncommon in games. That or all the cute dioramas we can find all over the internet just by googling for it.

That was enough of reason for me to shortlist this one and see what I could get my browser to with some simple SVG shapes. Just as for the first prompt, you can find the 'live', 'endlessly different' version on [genuary.d17e.dev](genuary25.d17e.dev)
