I am delighted to announce my latest hack: Elite 3D.

This is BBC Micro Elite, but in anaglyph 3D. To enjoy the third dimension, you'll need a pair of 3D specs; red-cyan is a good choice, but five different types are supported.

It's for BBC machines with a 6502 Second Processor, but you can also play it in your browser or emulator.

Full details:

Configuring Elite 3D: https://elite.bbcelite.com/hacks/elite_3d_configuration.html

Technical information: https://elite.bbcelite.com/hacks/elite_3d_technical_information.html

I recommend you take a quick look at the instructions first, as the built-in configuration tool makes a great introduction to the 3D effect and can help you get the best from it.

But if you can't resist jumping in straight away - and are willing to accept that 1980s anaglyph 3D isn't exactly the future of VR - then click here to play the game in your browser:

Every time I do tech support for my family I get very angry about people who whine about lacking "tech literacy".

90% of the stuff I have to teach them is how to navigate manipulative software and dark patterns. This has nothing to do with tech, but with capitalism. Tech is not complicated, it is just made maximally confusing on purpose to remove agency.

Better tech ed won't fix this.
