Thanks for the reminder Shiru.

Tee hee seems we were having ourselves a nice 1bitforum battle this time 
Re: Compo: Di Halt 2018 Lite
I heard in the party's video stream that organizers were happy with quality of beeper entries this and past years, and only wish there were more entries.

Ha, nice. Yeah, DiHalt beeper compos were quite good in recent years (except last year's Lite edition when I was the only one to submit). They better send me a diploma this time, though Anyway, thanks to you, Shiru, for that awesome Squat engine!

Re: Compo: Di Halt 2018 Lite
Well done utz, deserved win. Great track as always. I liked all the others too. Would never have guessed the earthshaker engine for headbanger. I thought it was maybe phaser 3.
My track was created very quickly in 1 session into the early hours of the morning so didn't have as much time as I usually put in. I did try and write something that I thought might appeal to the party goers though
Best score I've ever received for a track in that compo

Btw utz, was your track the one you played a few seconds of at this years IVP during your beeper engine presentation ?
Re: Compo: Di Halt 2018 Lite
Wow, utz, that was Squat?! I thought it is one of your awesome engines.
Don't worry, AtariTufty, I earned my first ever last place this time too (in MP3), woohoo!

Re: Compo: Di Halt 2018 Lite
Hey, I like your mp3 entry! And massive props for that Earth Shaker track as well.
Squat is great for me, as it enables me to get stuff done quickly. Somehow it reminds me of the days when things were simpler but then with great sound and sampled drums. I might have a bug report though (1tracker keeps throwing "engine provided no data" errors at me), but I'll check if it still happens in 0.29 first.
Re: Compo: Di Halt 2018 Lite
Yes, please test it in 0.29, as there were many fixes to many engines, and report if there are issues.

Cheers Shiru.
I liked your MP3 track too, cool use of the disk sounds
