This one has the Amiga ball and various graphics, but I don't see music/bubbles...

Edit: I remember seeing this on display in Weston-super-Mare and being much impressed :)

The Amiga boing ball demo and various other disc images have been available for download at Dragon Computer Consultancy for some time, but scanning through the list I can't see any other demos.

Here is a copy of Simon Jonassen's Tandy Assembly Demo, which I have transferred to cassette and cartridge. Two different cartridge versions are included. One of the cartridge versions runs the demo in a continuous loop, which is ideal for displaying the demo at computer shows, etc.

Simon's original upload of this demo can be found here (viewtopic.php?f=7&t=5637&p=161500) in the Uploads section of the forums.

This is a slightly modified version of my previous upload. This modified version now gives you the option to customise the on-screen display time of the demo.

The default 16 bit delay value gives a total on-screen display time (on my emulated Dragon 32) of 1 minute and 53 seconds for the four animated parts (Hot CoCo, Coco Plasm, CoCo Loco, and Tandy Assembly) of the demo. This is pretty close to the 1 minute and 47 seconds on-screen time noted from watching Simon's YouTube video of the original demo running on a emulated CoCo. All on-screen times were measured by myself with a Stopwatch.

I would be interested to know what the total on-screen display time is for the four animated parts of my speed regulated demo (with default delay value) under XROAR Dragon 32 emulation.

These are cartridge versions of Simon Jonassen's Tandy Assembly Demo that I have saved directly to cassette. They are intended to be used on a real Dragon or Coco after patching the ROM with my ROM (in RAM) Reset Patch program that I recently uploaded to the Uploads section of the Forums. They will allow you to run the demo in a continuous loop on display at computer shows, etc without the need to use an actual cartridge.

My "ROM (in RAM) Reset Patch" program can be found here (viewtopic.php?f=7&t=11230) in the Uploads section of the forums.
