Exactly what it says on the tin.. Pouet page.

I was rather satisfied with being able to put it together in a week. Figured out a few more kernel tricks too. I promise something more original in the future :)

Very cool! One of the funniest 2600 demos i have seen! :D

Hope you will release more VCS stuff in the future!

I am impressed, parts of it looked too high of resolution for Atari. Any chance of a NTSC version I can run on my real hardware? I downloaded the PAL one and ran it on Stella.

I've poked a little at an NTSC version, but there's something the causes the line count to fluctuate. This results in a slightly unstable picture in Stella.
I'll see if I can get it sorted out. If not, I'll just post the source and let someone else do it. In fact, I'll probably post it anyway - I just want to take a stab at it myself first in order to learn :)

I was curious how this kernel was realized, so I fired up Stella with debug colors on. Very impressive! This is a really creative use of the VCS graphics elements!

I'd like to update my initial post with the above link, but I can't figure out how to edit it.
Do these forums not allow editing, or am I missing something?

Very impressive.

At first sight I couldn't believe it's for the VCS.

Thanks for making a NTSC version! Most of the time us NTSC owners get left out in the cold when it comes to demos. GREAT JOB!!!

Wikipedia needs to be updated to say it has been ported to Atari 2600 too. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyan_Cat

Who knows how to get it updated?

I added an entry to the talk page and gave links to the Atari 2600, Atari 7800, and Commodore 116/16/plus4 ports for this. Hopefully that will get the ball rolling to getting the info added to the page.
