## TLDR

This intro use some software cheating to get non-standard ZX-Spectrum colour mode, [Multicolour](http://speccy.info/%D0%9C%D1%83%D0%BB%D1%8C%D1%82%D0%B8%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%BE%D1%80) timing mode synchronized for [Pentagon-128K 2+](https://speccy.info/Pentagon), a russian ZX-Spectrum clone. Actually when your code refresh colour attributes every line (at Pentagon it takes 224 CPU tact) by pushing the data using stack you can get the multicolor effects like this one.

You should import and compile this source in [Alasm](https://zxart.ee/rus/soft/tool/music/pro-tracker-alasm/qid:365628/) ZX-Spectrum assembler [(I have used v5.08)](https://speccy.info/ALASM) to compile. Or convert this source manually for [SjASMPlus](http://speccy.info/SjASMPlus) which is crossplatform.
