No, it works.  

The code is quite simple, really, the CPU does everything
(you may therefore need to reduce your screen resolution and depth to speed 
it up to the point where it works - I got best results with a 256-color 
(8bit) 640x480 screen.).   I suspect one  could drastically improve 
performance and sound quality with a little experimentation and the use of 
3d-acceleration operations - at present, it just generates pure notes, not
complex modulations necessary for conveying speech, say.
