Re: [stella] Brainstorming: 3D-Corridor

["Andrew Davie" <atari2600@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Attached is a distillation of my testbed code.  It's all there, so if anyone
wants to have a play - change the colours, speedup the cycling, make it go
backwards or just see how it works, the readme.txt file contains brief
instructions and a link to my utility which does the graphics conversion.
Cheers
