A C64 demo powered by a 2MB small language model running locally on a cartridge — making the demo dynamic with an SLM.
This project explores whether a small language model (2MB) can run locally on a Commodore 64 via a cartridge, and if so, whether it can make a classic demo scene dynamic and responsive. Using Oscar 64 for development, Scenario for visual assets, and Claude and Gemini for research and design decisions, the project sits at the intersection of retro computing nostalgia and cutting-edge AI miniaturisation. A love letter to 1984 written in the language of 2025.
