Simple visual demo created using TIC-80 in Python. For a friend whose birthday recently occurred in January 2026, who also changed my life. (It’s late..)
Shipped this project!
my second demo made for flavortown using TIC-80. this was made for a friend of mine whose birthday passed in january 2026 but they’ve been incredible to me that they deserved something big. i really hope this one is a massive improvement over the first one which was christmas-themed. you can find this work in https://github.com/bowlingfan/demomaking-practice/releases/tag/creation_frame_2 and downloading the exe file. this is by far one of my favorite projects i’ve ever done because it dealt with mathematics and creating visuals and i really like mathematics as a subject so handling some challenges like rotating objects was really fun. i also adored making visuals and animations! sadly this prob the last ever kinda demo for flavortown as i’ll try to focus on some more srs projects to improve my software dev skills! i hope this demo is something different!
added the ending scene, just a simple little title card to end it all off. i also added a transition from the 4th scene to this to make it more smoother! and with this, i’m complete!!

4th scene is now done and it is my last!! super proud of the effects here even with the slight flickering (unfortunately..). i ended up messing around with desmos (graphically) to successfully get these cool effects that you now see in the video! this is the most fun project i’ve done yet and dealing with all the tick management and mathematics to drawing is really engaging for me honestly. it’s definitely messy but it works out! (also s/o to easings.net as a website, they have a reference guide for easing animations and its INCREDIBLE.) last thing i gotta do now is put it all together!

finished 3rd scene of the visual which is just a grid of moving stuff, it was kind of tricky to make it flow well (as shown in the code screenshot, it’s still imperfect but it gets the job done.) hope the thing is cool looking to witness! really happy with the end result of this regardless, only one more scene left

worked on the 2nd scene of the visual! it gives you a warm “happy birthday” message with a bunch of cool effects in the background such as a bunch of lines and a few circles that come out, and the text is wavy too! quite a bit of a challenge to manage timings (cause i have a song that i’ll literally edit onto the final copy.. by video) but it’s coming together!
i will admit my programming skills definitely need work.. i tried really hard to abstract some stuff but ;-;

working on some gift for a friend now! i’ve started by trying to simultaneously draw lines through the tick system in TIC-80, although it produced kind of weird behavior cause it managed to create 2 new lines (from a point) instead of just one, so i’ll get that maybe fixed or leave it cause this looks pretty swag. super stoked to keep it going! (sorry for messy unreadable code, there’s a built-in text editor in TIC-80 that has a file size limit so i need to optimize the writing as much as possible)
