There was an interview with Paul (page 5-7: A FEW WORDS ABOUT ZX80), which aroused my interest.
Then I made my first trips in this world (here and here) and born some sketches.
It was not so easy as it seemed (worked fine with EO, but in real environment...) In the ZIP you can find 2 sketches designed for 1K machines.
The "joytris" is a splash screen only, the other would be a pong clone, and shows more "vitality".
The latter uses a mixed-mode display. It has 2 lo-res lines (header/footer), and the board built from 8 type of hi-res lines, which contains:
- 1 - nothing (empty line)
2 - left bat
3 - right bat
4 - two bats
5..8 - as 1..4 with ball
Try them please, and let me know if they work well with your HW (is it worth continuing?)
Regards,
