Paradox releases wildcompo entry April 17th, 2004
Paradox has released their wildcomp entry from Outline. It's a slideshow for the STe. But this is no ordinary slideshow; it doesn't contain any handmade pictures, no effects, hardly any music.. The special thing is a new screen mode they have crammed out of the STe machines. Very impressive, the routine displays 640x400 images in 14000 possible colours. The technique is based on midres, palette and scanline interlace together with blitter palette-shiftings. It should give about 40-44 colours per scanline (similar to Spectrum 512, but in 640 width rather than 320!).

This baby was not easy to do screenshots from :) In the end I had to use the videocam, so the screenshots below is far from the real quality seen on an STe.
