Spinstarr 2022 Author: erkkah Category: Christmas Challenge System: IBM PC running DOS Language: 8086 Assembler - nasm Len source code: 331 Len exe file: 66 Len code only: 66 Instructions: Install dosbox and run "dosbox -conf dosbox.conf star.com" Description: Draws a 17x9 isosceles triangle pointing downwards and rotates it in 90 degree steps to create the star shape. The triangle is drawn one transformed asterisk at a time with a lot of unnecessary over-drawing to create an animated effect at 4.77 MHz. Replacing the value 360 at the b: label with 4 removes the effect. The transformation includes stride scaling to avoid having to map row/col coordinates to memory locations separately. Comments: This was fun!
