Characters from Gamegirl Love by Mortimer Twang (House of Style).

aSCIIaRENa is a community for Amiga-style ASCII collections. It looks similar to an Amiga BBS, but it’s easy to use for anyone. It shows ASCII collys just like they look on Amiga.

Made by the spliff detectives of Up Rough Soundsystem.

Examples from Homeless by Hiro Protagonist, 2004.

Log Off by Skin in the 1990s.

At The Gates & Zoomed Reality by Godhead, mid 1990’s.

By Karma, an influential artist in the Amiga ASCII scene. Taken from a few different ASCII collections, released 1994-1996. The logos read Slammer, Razor 1911, Mellow Illusion, Aneurysm and Legend.

Movement and Bloody Decision by 911 in the mid 1990s. Taken from the ASCII colly Green Grass of Home. 911 also made jazzy amiga hip hop back then, and is now the well established artist Martyn.

Picture generated with the Mo’Soul font at Ascii Arena, where you can watch ASCII the way it looks on Amiga.
