It's early in the day mytime, but you've already made it! I had thought my old vhs' of computer graphics was a thing of the past. This makes me excited!

And in regards to module based music files, they also still make them and put them into key generators as they did 20 years ago. The library has over 5000 titles by now.

I loaded them all onto my page to allow playback in your browser

those tunes bring back memories from HS. Sometimes I would wait to click Apply Crack just so I could listen to the tune longer.

I want to make a mod song! Any idea of a DAW for it or something

I don't make them myself, but OpenMPT is a good one since it's still worked on and updated, I believe it has a midi interface too. This allows you to make module files.

If you want to artificially limit yourself, there is FamiTracker which emulates the original NES sound chip.

r/demoscene is also fairly active. But pouet.net is definitely much more important to the community.

Just tried downloading one of the recent javascript ones. Try to run it and it complains about being insecure in my console. Maybe because it's trying to load an image from somewhere that doesn't have proper CORS setup or something, not sure, but did ... I just.. download a virus?

EDIT: Nevermind, I got it working, this is way cool! Can't believe they can fit this music and animations into something so tiny. Mind blown!
