I guess I managed to obfuscate a lot of code. And with only the effect I was in 12 lines iirc. I had no inspiration for additional effects. At first I decided to call for music playing so that I intentionally reach 20 lines. But still I managed to obfuscrate the music init code too. So even if I am only at 14 lines I decided to stop here with this. Sorry, I never have motivation to fill those lines or those bytes left in size coding compos
It shows that much more can be done in 20 lines. And I was even too lazy to improve!

Goodnight..
p.s. Music by the hardliner btw.
p.p.s. I could obfuscrate more but it started being too slow. E.g. I made a test where I removed X, Y loops, inserted a For i=0 to 320*240-1 loop, and in all the big line with maths, I changed X with ((i mod 320) - 160) and Y with ((i \ 320) - 120). Crazy!!! But I decided to not put this here because it made the code even more slow and I already had more than enough lines anyways..
p.p.p.s. External files are allowed eh? Like fmod.dll and a music. Or not? I've seen somewhere that they are allowed..
p.p.p.p.s. And it still impresses me that by using FPU in such a crazy way with so many calcs per pixel (at least for small resolutions) can still have an ok speed. Not the way I knew to optimize things in quickbasic
