Command-Line Star Wars Animation

24 03 2008

Just when I was starting to get used to the Command-Line Interface of Linux, my prof sent me a link to this pretty cool “2D Star Wars Animation” by the guys at Asciimation. Seriously, I think 2D is an understatement as it is made up PURELY from text characters in the command line. I don’t want to imagine how much time and effort they put into creating this cool animation frame by frame that runs in your command-line interface.

Do check out the full animation here. :)

For the latest version of their video, visit their website here.

Note: It is better to view the video on the website because you have the option of fast-forwarding and jumping between scenes :)

Oh I think it is at their original website.

Asciimation

You can find the full video there + if you watch it there, you can jump and fast forward between scenes :D
