I think I’ve just accidentally invented cyber camp fire

@julianruf How about aafire command from aalib? It's here since 1997.

@dyske there it goes, my invention … But given that I didn’t know about it it still feels like an invention 😁

@julianruf
Nah. Yours looks better 😊 It's just the moment I saw it it reminded me of aafire.

@julianruf The last campfire before an Oregon Trail player avatar dies of dysentery.

@julianruf You sit beside the CAMPFIRE, outstretching your hands towards its flickering warmth. Around you, the blocky forms of other campers blink in and out of existence.

Your STAMINA recovers.

@julianruf welcome kids to Camp Cyber here’s your powerglove

@julianruf That looks cool! What was the accident that led to it?

@eishiya Me playing with a video of a camp fire in an app called Restrospecs (iOS only afaik). After some terrible first tries this was the first that looked really interesting.

@tOPenArt It’s a video of a camp fire fed into an app called Retrospecs (8bitartwork.co.uk) that I was playing with.

At some point I accidentally ended up with the filter settings that make it look like this.

@julianruf
awesome.
let's hope next week you will accidentally invent cyber red/orange colors 😉

@goofy @julianruf and then blue.

And with their powers combined we could have a white cyber fire.

@goofy not sure whether my innovation skills would be sufficient for this 😉

@dongler A filter. I was playing with the Retrospecs app and at some point different filters and settings „accidentally“ created this look.
