========================================================== Tiny Snow July 6, 2001 Version 1.1 20:28 EST Original code by comrade Optimized by comrade and SSJ3 ========================================================== History 06/07/2001 20:28 EST (version 1.1) * Removed random data checking routine. * Combined drawing and updating. * Size down to 95 bytes. * Project renamed to Tiny Snow from Snow-123, as it is not 123 bytes anymore. ========================================================== This snow simulation is a whopping 95 bytes! Written in pure x86 assembly, assembled and linked with Borland Turbo Assembler 5, this 95-byte COM file is truly an amazing work of art. First optimized down to 160 bytes we were doubtful about it going any lower. Then, already at 141 bytes, our comrade Serge has suggested to remove palette initialization. The extra bytes of the code were eventually hunted down and the bare minimum 123 were left. That was yesterday. Today, Friday morning, comrade managed to get the size down to 95 bytes! Truly, unbelievable! ========================================================== This program comes with absolutely no warranty of any kind. Use this program solely at your risk.
