Retrogathering 2012 demo compo (Sweden, Oct 6-7)
category: offtopic [glöplog]
Retrogathering is a retro gaming and collecting event that has been held yearly since 2006. This year the event takes place in Västerås on October 6-7. Apart from the Pong championship, other gaming competitions, invited speakers and of course the flea market, this year we have decided to add a small multi-platform demo competition.
The idea is to use the Retrogathering logotype and information about the event in a short demo, max 5 minutes. We don't have any size limits, except it should fit within one storage unit (i.e. floppy disk, tape, cartridge). Exemples of accepted platforms include C64, VIC-20, ZX Spectrum, MSX, Intellivision, NES, SNES, SMS, Megadrive, Atari 2600, Atari 8-bit computers, Atari ST, Amiga 500, Mac 68000, IBM PC/XT and so on. Basically anything 8-bit or early 16-bit up to ~10 MHz.
We'd like submissions as digital files and ideally a video recording to spread on the web before the event. The deadline for entries is set to Sunday, September 16.
Prizes are not yet determined, but in order to win at least one representative from each contestant (either an individual or group) should be present at Retrogathering 2012.

Please note that this is NOT a regular demo party, which is why I'm posting it as off-topic rather than under parties.
