At the 68k Inside 2025 party, Oxygene brings the crowd to life with Chip&Dots, a sleek and stylish Amiga 500 demo packed into just 32 kilobytes. This compact intro doesn’t just show up—it takes first place in the combined intro compo, proving once again that small can absolutely be mighty.
Running on OCS/ECS hardware, Chip&Dots is designed for the Amiga 500 but doesn’t mind showing off on any Amiga. With clever code and minimalist design by Leonard of Oxygene, punchy visuals from Mon, and a bouncy soundtrack originally composed by BigAlec of Delta Force for the Atari ST, this demo turns retro hardware into a party-ready pixel showcase.
Even with the 32KiB limit, the effects feel tight and energetic, the transitions smooth, and the overall polish unmistakably Oxygene. Whether you’re watching it on real hardware or checking out the scene release, this Amiga 500 demo is a short trip that’s absolutely worth the ride.
