THE AMIGA ASCII scene is a
completely different art scene
compared to the PC art scene I
was involved in way back.
There were probably a lot of
differences, but the main thing
you notice is that the Amiga had
a different font compared to the
PC.
The "Topaz" font had higher
characters which made / and \
connect to each other in a
different way compared to what we
were used to on the PC making
the line art prominent.
The two different scenes still
inspired each other and a few
artists did both PC and Amiga
ascii.
The easiest way to look at Amiga
ascii today is to install the RetroTxt
browser extension and head over
to artscene.textfiles.com/ascii/.
Or head over to aSCIIaRENA.
