This version has 32 stars and they're now or'd on top of each other, if a character is already used.
The stars are also moving slowly in the middle and increasing in speed as the reach the border.
If you follow a single star, you don't really notice it, but the overall effect is very nice, it really gets more depth.
You can compare it to the previous version, it really makes a big difference.

This has 16 slower stars and 8 faster stars. I also tweaked the angles and starting points a little.
The source code is still messy.

I think you should consider developing a Gyruss-style game for the CreatiVision

All those starfields are cool. Soon now I have more homebrew demos in my ROMS folder than I have actual released games...

Sorry that 2/3 of the video is static while I change the DIP switches.
Also I remember now that I have a newly bought USB TV stick right in front of me, that I could use to capture TV much better than filming it with a camera.
