• Most enjoyable Amiga 4k in a long while. Clear compo favorite for me!

• demotool Windows Crinkler by Loonies [web] & TBC
• Happy 15th anniversary to all Crinkler users!
  
  We have two big pieces of news for you today.
  
  First, as hinted a week ago, Crinkler is now open source! After lots of preparations, today we are relasing the Crinkler source code under the very permissive Zlib license. Find it on GitHub!
  
  Second, we have a new version ready - Crinkler 2.3! The main improvements are:
  
  - The size of /TINYHEADER reduced by another 3 bytes.
  - Faster hash size optimization, especially with many cores.
  - Error messages about symbols that cannot be found now include the name of the function containing the reference to that symbol.
  - When using functions from msvcrt.dll, it is no longer necessary to supply an old msvcrt.lib. Crinkler now automatically links to msvcrt.dll, similarly to how the Microsoft linker automatically links to its corresponding runtime.
  - For CONSOLE applications, when not specifying a custom entry point, Crinkler will insert a small mainCRTStartup which handles commandline arguments, similarly to what dnm221 requested a while back.
  - The automatic msvcrt.dll linking and entry point can be disabled by using the /NODEFAULTLIB option.
  - Added support for legacy format lib files with only the first linker member. Files like this are emitted from rustc, for example. This fixes the problem reported by p2mate above.
  - When an imported DLL contains no export table (which is the case for some Wine DLLs), Crinkler will no longer crash. Instead, it will report an error, instructing the user to supply genuine Windows DLLs when crinkling on Wine.

• demotool Linux Windows Amiga AGA Amiga OCS/ECS MacOSX Intel Shrinkler by Loonies [web]
• D5 contains the current reference offset. It is written at all non-repeated-offset references and used as the copy offset at all references (repeated offset and not).
  
  The only way you can get to the code using D5 without it being initialized first is if the input contains a repeated-offset reference before the first non-repeated-offset reference. But Shrinkler should never emit such data. If you encounter this situation, your crunched data is corrupt.
  
  Did you hit the D5-using code with D5 uninitialized with data coming directly from Shrinkler? If so, I would like to hear more. :)

  Here's a challenge.. Can you paste it as a basic listing like we used to get in books magazines?

  
  Eh.. hmm.. I guess. It won't be 128 bytes, but I guess that's not part of the challenge? :)
  
  For such a listing, it would be nice to the "consumer" to be able to stop the program again, which means not trash half of the zeropage like this one does. It could also make sense to move as much of the program as possible to BASIC and only have the core loop in machine code.
  
  Are you looking for the experience of typing in a BASIC program end then getting this on the screen? ;)

• 4k intro Windows The vanishing of Ashlar by NuSan
• Very nice rendering. The modelling and movements seem somewhat messy. Also not convinced by the music.

• demotool Windows Amiga PPC/RTG Tiny Speech Synth by Stan 1901
• Another one of those speech synths where you can convince yourself that you understand what it is saying if you read the words on the screen at the same time. ;)
  
  I also used formant synthesis for the speech (and the music) in Planet Loonies. To find the right coefficients for the various sounds, I simply experimented until I found something I though sounded right. :)

  Just out of curiosity, whats the ratio of sound and visual bytes?

  
  In terms of compressed size, an executable containing just the visuals came out at 7664 bytes, about 12% of the total intro size.
