Wow, great! Plenty of new ideas that work very well on C64. It is really refreshing to see C64 demos have finally managed to overcome the urge of trying to copy amiga or PC demos. Amiga is not quite there, yet.

The music is a bit too experimental for me, though.

Some nice effects, but the music wasn't really my cup of tea.

Fantastic piece of work. Especially the growing thing was cool, and the screenshot scene.

excellent, reminds me somehow of satori

Can't get it to work in CCS64 3.0 or Winwice. After the "sound latency.. Thank you", nothing more happens.

r0xx0r: Make sure true drive emulation is activated (vice).

And yes, this is awesome.

has a few nice parts but overall not my cup of tea. rather annoying music.

damn... there goes that meditation/chakra-demo I've been planning with abaddon, but this was worth it! this is a great demo with impressive screens and progression. I also dig the athmospheric soundtrack.
rulez added on the 2007-07-08 12:17:55 by tempest tempest
some cool ideas. Also nice to see some 1x1 effects

tomæs: Thanks, true driver emulation did the trick.

Great demo!

I actually love the beginning with the opening and flower routines the most. And there are several nice effects as it goes. And it's a bit weird at times and I like this. If it only didn't end there and left me waiting for more :P. Long time to see a C64 demo I enjoyed so much!

Whoah, top-5 C64-demo for me. Excellent, trippy and very cool effects.

Sweet candy for the c64.
A bunch of (nice) new effects.
Deserves a CDC.

Oh and the guy at the end of the demo trying to hypnotize me :-D

High resoluted visuals were floating through my screen, surrounded by some nice ideas. Didn't see such a nice Demo since, aehm, since BP2007. --> *NICE!* What do we need more? Some more sensual music. Don't get me wrong, I adore music adopted to ED's style, but there is a narrow path between electronic orgasms and ROT $d418 ;)

Nifty. The tune didn't get me though, perhaps needed slightly more volume on the drums?

loads of good effects and great music. the whole thing fits together nicely

now... is the guy near the end spinning cw or ccw?

Massively fucking excellent.
btw tech question: by now i know how to do colourcycling. but c64 has a fixed palette (, or?). so how is it done? guess it's possible to use some delta paint routs?
added on the 2007-07-10 09:05:46 by earx earx
It's more than okay but the music sucks bigtime.
Not my cup of tea (the music that is).

fresh music! fresh graphics! fresh effects!

To sum it up. Mega fresh!!! More more

Love the growing wines and the stripy tubes with surrounding spheres. Modern c64 music should sound like this!

Fantastic! Cool, innovative style and even some coloured hires stuff. Music: an eccentric flow of tones which sounds interesting to me. I like! :)

earx, its charmode animations with sprites (tubes with balls), and some screens are made of a few bitmaps with changing color attribute ram with sprites (screenshot with triangle head). color cycling is not possible in the way a pc folk thinks about it.

Great flow. Astonishing that I had the idea of doing an effect like these growing lines just two weeks before the release of this demo. Now talk about common minds :)

Excellent design, unconventional music, perfect length. This demo exemplifies the notion that 8-bit demos should be more about creativity, atmosphere, and/or telling an interesting story using the available technology, rather than cramming as many (decades old!) effects with no substance as possible, together with a bunch of good but disjointed pixel art which one is forced to gaze at for 10+ minutes because there are three music tracks and it is totally imperative to hear all three.
