Loopit-C64-Ever

Arkanix Labs has released my new C64 8580 SID tune called 'Loopit-C64-Ever' which is cover of an Amiga mod called 'loopit4ever' by the brilliant composer/artist 'Zabutom'.


The SID has been released in a nice little 'wrapper' consisting of a 3 colour bitmap logo (drawn a few years ago, see information here) and new charset font based on the Mega Drive game 'Streets of Rage II', rendered in UltrafontPC.

The C64 code to display this was provided by T.M.R.  The code was originally provided by T.M.R for me to begin learning 6502 assembler (which I'm making progress on) but has been used with permission here for this release.  I did make some minor modifications to the code including fixes for screen flickers when running under NTSC (thanks to Moloch for testing), but not really enough to warrant me crediting myself with coding!

The original Amiga mod was released at Compusphere 2018 and can be downloaded from the scene.org website here...

As for my SID version, it can be downloaded from CSDb here or direct from this blog here.  Both downloads offer the C64 PRG executable version (PAL and NTSC flavours), a SID file and the music in it's original SNG Goattracker format.
