- Had me in stitches during the compo and it's actually quite a technical feat - what's not to like?

- One of those soundtracks that keep you coming back again and again. Also what noby said, and the usual "wtf I haven't thumbed this up yet"? :)

- Yeah, what noby said. Absolutely great track, and I do like myself some minimalist visuals, but it would have been so easy to make it look way cleaner that it's a bit annoying. Like, more than 256² pixels for that cubemap, blurring it a bit (you can sell that as "look, PBR" :D), generating mipmaps for it to fix the aliasing at grazing angles, turning on AA for the main target, having a less band-y blur, and choosing a softer tonemapping curve / adjusting the glare intensity to make it look a bit less early-2000s additive (because it isn't!). Each of those would probably really have helped.
(yeah, I ran it through RenderDoc to see what might be the issue, sorry ;) ) - isokadded on the 2022-06-19 23:07:22

- What everyone else said, and an extra thumb up for the direction and how it makes this intro so much better than the sum of its already awesome parts.

- What I like most about this demo is that it kinda doesn't look like one.
So nitpicks first: A couple of parts fell a bit flat compared to the rest (mostly because they "give away their hand" and look a bit too standard particle-y) and I'm not 100% on board with all harmonic choices the soundtrack makes.
But the end result, with all the choices concerning color, typography, the gratuitous use of (feedback)blur and everything else, consciously avoids the usual demoscene aesthetic and IMO goes _way_ above and beyond. If I would just see it, I would think "music video on Vimeo" first, not demo, and that's an unbelievably good thing in a scene that seems to a good part preoccupied with rehashing tropes. And there were a lot of times when I peeked at Darya's screen in the last weeks where I thought "I would have done that differently" but turns out - most of those times I was wrong. All of it just fits perfectly. - rulezadded on the 2022-04-20 14:33:48

- What everyone else said, basically. Of course you could say that fractals are a bit overused these days, but that only means there's extra skill and care involved in choosing and rendering them. And this delivers. Fully.

- What everyone else said. The attention to detail in this is amazing.

- wild Animation/Video greeblefever by Mercury [web]
- Almost what PS said but more like inspring: "I want to do this in realtime". :)
I like the eerie sci-fi aesthetic, with that bass line in the music it's a bit like if Aperture Science had been built by aliens.
Any chance for a 4K render to do those visuals justice? :) - rulezadded on the 2022-04-20 14:08:58
