Radeon HD 6950 -> Radeon R9 Fury
Win7 32-bit -> Win10 64-bit

Fun Fact:  When I took the new graphics card out of the box I was so astounded by how heavy it was that I grabbed the closest thing at hand for a comparison.  So yes, just in case you were wondering, the new graphics card is heavier than a C=64.

Come to @party to witness the power of this fully upgraded and operational compomachine!
May the 4th be with you!

It’s our pleasure to announce the performers for @party’s pre-compo chiptune concert:

The concert will be on the evening of Saturday June 4th and will be followed immediately by the main compo block, neither of which should be missed!  We’re also putting together a Friday night “Velvet” concert featuring local live synth-based techno courtesy of the Artisan’s Asylum A/V Club.  Stay tuned for further information!

Hey everybody,

Registration is finally up, click here to register!

We’ve also updated the compo rules, go check them out even if you’ve participated in @party before as some rules have changed. We’ve also combined a few compos and created some new ones.

New compos this year:

• Shader Compo – Low barrier to entry, Shadertoy-compatible shader coding.
• VR Compo – We should have at least one of each major headset on-site.  Apply your graphics skills to these state of the art platforms!
• Freestyle Interactive Compo – Basically any hardware / software system somebody can interact with be it a game, interactive demo, animatronic sculpture, etc.
