UNDER CONSTRUCTION - NOT YET RELEASED

Psycho is a shameless clone of [1], a light synthesizer created by Jeff 'Yak' Minter in 1984 for the Commodore 64.

Psycho is freeware, can be distributed freely and should never be charged for.

Free Play Mode

Up to four people can play at the same time. Point the controller at the screen and press and hold the A button to produce a pattern. Use the other buttons to change parameters that affect the pattern.

Demo Mode

While the program generates pretty pictures, you can still change the parameters with controller 1. Press A to skip to the next picture.
