Astrophel was born out of my experience writing Trynth, a desktop space strategy game. After writing this turn based multiplayer game I was inspired to try something significantly more adventurous. Astrophel was developed for RiscOS3.1 in assembly. After a couple of months I keeled over with a tiny demo, a galaxy of ideas and 10,000 lines of code and I still hand't really got anywhere! Still I picked up some of the beauties of assembly programming from the whole experience.
