The last iGUANA's prod until now. As allways great design & code, and mixed with cool music that gives his unique style! iGUANA rulez forever!!! :)

I like Iguana demos. This has some cool effects, a raytracer and a really nice music. I love the colourfull transparent stuff at the end: It's magnificent!

I have seen this demo a lots of times, and every time I love it more. Impressive effects, nice raytracer and good music

Also today a very enjoyable demo, I agree that it's probably the best Iguana release

i don't remeber the demo - but i'll give a thumbs of for creating such a big NFO-file!

I remember running it over and over again just to stare at the tunnel and twister effects :D
The raytracing scenes were waay boring though.

This demo impressed the hell out of me. Design is sorely lacking, indeed, but the fx are sweet.

Haven't watched the "real" demo yet (will do it in the near future on my DOS machine), but the video of it is cool. After the video I've seen the [Win32 port] - better graphics and sound. \o/
Awesome!

What, no comment from me yet? Absolutely fantastic and one of my old favourites.

Pretty cool intro by iguana, maybe the soundtrack is a little too influenced by second reality?

Did I mention that this was the first demo I downloaded from Internet? It fit nicely on a floppy, and since we didn't have Internet access at home, I went to the library to get some new demos. I downloaded this plus a bunch of 64k intros.. must've been 1997 or something like that.

Now I feel old. But I still love the demo.

I ported it to OSX so you can enjoy it in fullscreen on linux/osx/etc. http://adrianboeing.blogspot.com/2011/02/despaire-by-iguana-ported-to-mac-osx.html

classic oldskool pc demo :)

More attention could've been paid to the design and color departments. Some cool effects though, I've always liked plane deformations, and the raytracing(?) was interesting, but the real highlight was the feedback which when done right is always something I love. A decent production but lacking in areas I particularly value.
