Colorbars

39 vertical multicolor raster bars using all 16 colors.

Every bar is 22 pixel wide, plus 2-2 pixels of background color on the sides. Every bar can use 5 different colors. The routine repeats the same top 3 pixel lines of a bitmap, and redraws the bitmap/vram/d800 of the line while they are displayed.

Notable is the hardware scroll below which draws the runes into several csets in a way that a single multicolor pixel separates the runes which are not aligned to character boundaries. (The font was created for a different - unfinished - intro and it would have been a sin to let it be wasted.)
