OLC 2020

What fun we will have!

[GregoryTheGrster]

When I was in high school, a buddy of mine wrote a BASIC program much like yours here. It was in the math lab, on an Apple II. He printed the s-word at random locations on the screen. When our math teacher saw this program in action, he was irate. He even threatened to bend and fold the floppy disk on which the program was stored. It was a tense moment.

retro computing? I LIKE! BTW: coding while playing the piano --- amazing!

Javidx9, thanks that brought back some GREAT memories for me. Of my time programming at school on the BBC Model B at school. Great times. Thanks.

This was the best 'Coming up on this season on OLC'. He's got the smarts.

I cannot wait! Honestly, your videos are one of the things I'm looking forward too for this year.

Music is the prelude in c major by J. S. Bach from the first well-tempered klavier book

I really love all your videos. Many thanks to you, for all the incredible passion and effort you are putting in this channel. I’m learning a lot. Thanks, and have a great year! ❤️🙂

Hey javidx9. I wish you more success in 2020. I wanted to suggest a video (series) idea. I have always loved racing and growing up I played a lot of racing games.

Some games in particular have stood out, some of them being Geoff Crammond's Grand Prix games. Those games were ahead of their time, particulary the first one which was released in 1991.

At that point most games used hacky 3D graphics while this one had real 3D incorporated in the game.

You think you can make a video series recreating that game using the console game engine and the 3d engine? It would be nice to know how Geoff managed to build such a game considering the limitations at the time so you could also talk about different ways of optimizations in order to use as little resources as possible.

And I thought i was bonkers tinkering with turbo c, I even managed to get OLC Asteroids running in Dos/WinBGI graphics.h.

Ahh brings back memories.. When life was simpler

[jakubsebek]

I really hope you're gonna write a shell from scratch

[nytrex]

Great to see some BBC BASIC love. Now, all we need is some RISC OS 5 love too. It's still getting developed and improved. But it does need some new games!

[piggypiggypig]

Ha, nice! Are you able to demo some simple assembly with the BBC? I recently learnt that this can be done in-line with BASIC and would like to see it.

Bach's prelude? oh, you're amazing.
