We're very sad to announce that due to the safety measures taken by the Slovak government against the COVID-19 outbreak, we have to postpone the party to a yet-unknown date in the autumn. More info at forever8.net and forever.zeroteam.sk. Stay tuned for updates.

Afer 10 days of learning Motorola 6809 I was able to make 1kilobyte intro for on #Tandy CoCo/ Dragon 32.
6809 is a beautiful processor, so many possibilites, IMHO the best 8 bit processor.

In case you haven't noticed elsewhere yet, now it's official: the theme of Forever 2020 is: ROBOT! The party web got updated, and you can also start registering in the visitor list. Looking forward to seeing great demos, gfx, msx, and YOU at FOREVER 2020 - ROBOT!

To make up for this unfortunate oversight, we offer you a poem:
Roses are red,
aliens are green,
play Project Firestart,
or be a has-been.

Oh, slimey! We had an Alien-themed Forever, and we never even mentioned Project Firestart, arguably the most atmospheric alienish horror 8-bit game ever! That doesn't just hurt, that burns like acid!

Wow, over 100 people at this year. Thank you everyone! "So long, and thanks for all the astronauts!" says the Alien, signing off.

If you've ever wanted to hear We Will Rock You in the style of a Tim Follin ZX Spectrum chiptune, then I have some good news for you.

The party is over. Thank you for coming, you make FOReVER as well. We had over 100 visitors after some years again, it means the 8-bit spirit is still appealing. Thanks to Brothers in ATRs for fantastic gig, PCH for doing buffet instead of C64-ing and orgas for being great! 💐

Guess what: Forever 2019 has a theme! The official name of the 20th edition will be "Forever 2019: 8-Bit Aliens". In case you're not so much into making demos with extraterrestrials, don't forget that "alien" has more than one meaning. Either way, see you next year!
