Massive starfield with digital audio and sweet graphic overlay, wow.

Downvote for the group name alone, no matter the age of the group or the quality of the demo. Maybe go with something more modern like "The new Hitlers" or "Jewkillers". kthxbye.

raer: Holocaust is a word as is genocide, in fact, there are many music groups and songs using the word holocaust on Spotify. Fair enough, it might be distasteful a concept or name to some, but it's a word and not an endorsement of the WWII holocaust, Nazis or anti-semtism.

I don't see Spotify as a moral reference and I don't understand why people make a demo with that group name in 2019... Note to self: Scene hasn't matured since the 1990s...

Funny, I just thought Holocaust, that's a great group name.
Also reminds me of "Pure Holocaust", a great album.

Making dismissive judgements regarding anything complex based on one single apparently irrelative factor is a longstanding German tradition I suppose

This fair vote reminds me of the russian Spectrum drama.
Anyway, nice intro!

Actually, as a 2 kb on an atari st, its...well yeah kinda sick.

If Zappy wants or get motivated, he can...yes Leo and Keops know, lsl, even Treod what will happen ;)

Wrong screenshot. It's from the other starfield named "Infinity".

Group name: I once mentioned the origin of that name on my blog (http://www.codercorner.com/blog/?p=560). Nothing to do with Jews, at the time we only knew that word from "nuclear holocaust". The reason I used it again in 2019 is because I had that unused logo Mic drew for us back in 1994, and I've always felt bad about not using it (as I wrote in the readme).

2 kb: I didn't pay attention to the prg size, so it could actually be smaller. The prg is not even packed or anything. That one could probably fit in a bootsector :)

@Zappy, the screenshot was wrong at first but has been changed since.
It is probably still showing you a cached version of this page, it did that for me too.
Shift+F5 fixed it for me.

Love both starfields <3

Also,l the name never bothered me. Not quite sure what all the fuss was about.
rulez added on the 2019-07-12 16:22:44 by ROOT808 ROOT808
Wrong comment from me then (moved to the correct prod), due to that previously wrong screenshot, eh.

Edit :
@Zappy
Actually you are right it was still not a screenshot from the correct starfield.
I made a request to change it to, should be fixed soon <3

*the group xC_1:3 releases a production called 6Ti7_4, is this offending anyone great conclave *beep beep* -no you can release it *beep beep**

Nice starfield.

That's especially like the second reality secret part effect
rulez added on the 2019-07-13 07:56:42 by Optimus Optimus
Name of the group is historical and nothing to do with nazis of course, always thought it was inspiration from heavy metal or something. There are also funny names like Hemoroids that might sound awkard today, like if I said to some new guy "let me show you demo from this old group" but whatever, I don't make it a big deal.
added on the 2019-07-13 08:00:25 by Optimus Optimus
I actually realized that's the same group made infinity? Why make two similar things in the same party?
Also,. didn't realize last Holocaust demo was in 1994, wow a comeback?!
added on the 2019-07-13 08:06:22 by Optimus Optimus
"Why make two similar things in the same party?" => because the Sommarhack page specified "Several entries per person or crew is allowed" for the starfield compo (https://dhs.nu/sommarhack/2019/compo.php#themed1).

yep

Maybe next time it would be better to refrain yourself from posting inane and irrelevant comments.

As for the prod, welcome back Zappy, it's been a while :)
