Feels cheesy, and the music is mediocre at best, but the code seems to be quite good. Definetly more than just thumb-worthy.

I guess it lacks a little something on the design side but damn, it's a multipart 4k :)
my GPU turned this into a slide show, but What a lovely slide show!
Good code, sweet pictures. Music is a little bit strange but it fits visuals.
looks fantastic, but lacks in music and design.
Awesome intro. Great asteroid and tentacles. Multiple parts with nice colors. The music fits very well.
what Lord Graga said, thumb up for code, piggy for design and music
The 11KHz-ish soundtrack is not bad.
nice 4k executable music here on my x800xt (= waiting for the video...
Actually, when I saw it first I thought it was a procedural image.
What keops sayed.
Music is quite nice if you ignore the lo-fi quality. The rendering is quite interesting and there are many parts. Cool!

Looks good when it runs fast, looks crap when it doesnt :) Interesting 4k
cool! Very good code! And multiscene!
Colors were horrible though, in my opinion. Music lacks a bit of high freq content, but it's oks I think.

Good, now there's only 48 more US states to go.
This is great this is great!

wonderful!
I like this one a lot!

vista, radeon 4850, white screen with spinning cursor :(
but running in xp compatibilty mode makes it rock \o/
cute!
The mountains on the screenshot reminded me of my favourite amiga game.
Anyways, a nice 4k intro

Great
Very good. I'm really glad to see Loonies making their mark on the PC after many successful years on the Amiga.
the tentacle-scene just roxx...
music and design seem a bit rushed!
but ofcoz all thumbs up.

Awesome
Not tested on vista I see...
the music and visuals remind me of a late 80s/early 90s BBC science documentary! :) Like something they'd show in a Tomorrow's World feature.
Really great stuff for 4k!!

Incredible!
Psycho went psychotic again and produced the release of the party.
Nice scenes.
Lots of great scenes here, but the music gets a bit tedious. Overall very impressive.
Oh and btw, works great on Vista here.

Bah, meant to thumb up, not piggy it.
d3pth: tested on xp/32, vista/32 and vista/64 (w/o xp compatibility mode) - but give it some time after switching mode to generate music (around 12s here at 3.2ghz). And recent drivers ofcourse. It will get more resolutions to run at when I get the final src.
And yes, the music/design had to be done simple/fast, as it's the very first time we use the new synth, which wasn't fully operational until after deadline ;)

Really great 3D!
the whole thing has got the style/mood of some 70s/80s future visions.
i like that!
thx for vid btw!

runs fine on my vista machinery. colors and landscapes reminded me of "please the cookie thing" (though with out the sound track :-)
packed! some really nice scenes, (rolling spheres, valley) mixed with horrible colors and some really ugly scenes.
Impressive, but still I have a feeling that this was a waste. More time on this baby could probably made a 2-state 4k.

Its incredible what can be put into 4k.
Excellent work. Good to see that more and more people notice that ray tracing is fun.
nice
very nice
excellent :)

YEZZZ!
archee: ehhh.. http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=26834 ;)
But raytracing is interesting as it allows another set of possible objects/scenes for 4ks

v. interesting. I found the sound fitting, eerie and empty in many ways. The orange-blue should have worked better as a colour scheme. Very nice objects and loads of scenes. The rolling spheres over the landscape was the killer moment for me :-)
Yep
a bad case of quantity over quality. :(
yes,smash,it all looks a bit cheap,doesn´t it?...especially the noise-texture...it needs some extratime for polish i´d say...afterwards release a 100%-final! could enter the top10 then!
great. amazing visuals and fitting music. music could be imo a bit better (i don't know how many bytes was left)...
some really good stuff in here, but horrible horrible colors
Very nice :) I'll repeat my concerns about the lack of highs in the synth though.
What everyone else said about the colours + design, but it was still good.

Only 45, actually. Colorado, Mississippi and Montana are taken as well. :)
nice one, lot good effects!
thanks to the compo crew for letting us deliver our entry approximately 12 1/2 hours late :) We uploaded it 30 seconds before Gargaj came asking where the fuck it was, and about 15 minutes before the compo, so unfortunately no time to tweak colours or anything else ^_^
also, like psycho said, this was the first in-production use of the new synth - and the music was made by a graphician, so what can you expect ;) Wade seems to like it all anyway, I can't ask for more ;)

great
what gloom said. :D
So cool! Great looking bumps and raytracing!
gloom: the lack of high frequencies in the synth is a known bug. it is fixably by not mixing on headphones during the gabber music compo.
Yes, as farfar says, the lack of high frequencies in the music is caused by a resampling filter set to cut off at a way too low frequency. This is simply a parameter in the synth, so it is easy to fix (in a gabber-free environment) and will be set appropriately in the final version.
ran ok on my 7950gtx and smooth on my 8800gts.
visuals are nice, but why does the synth sound like 11khz sampling rate?

Music really suits it, smooth as silk and displays perfectly on my 4850 (8.8 drivers) XP SP3.

'next gen' feeling in 4k
This is pretty cool, it had a long wait and then worked okay here on vista x64. Sorry, Psycho. Great graphics.
i can't say i enjoyed the music but the visuals were nice.. thump!
Pretty good...visuals were nice, music alright. Worked fine on Vista 64-bit with 8800GT.
![[HamsTeR]](https://content.pouet.net/avatars/cyber.cow_mini_16x16.gif)
mind: in my defense, the music wasn't meant to be enjoyed, it was meant to fit the visuals and be more of a .. well a soundtrack / fx track, I guess :)
very good stuff.
yes
respekt!
blackjack and hookers.
Not many fps over here but enjoyable nontheless.
pure ugliness from the design & sound department.
fx soundtrack! thanx for forming a sentence!
and if you experience a slideshow you should get some newer hardware...newest hardware is able to do raytracing in realtime....thats what its all about! GPU roxx!

i just like the tech i see ;)
but yes,i´m sorta troll these days!

this was the only prod during the party where I found myself saying "oh" several times while it ran :)
Music isn't that great... But apart from that, this is just awesome :) Kickass 4k!
I like everything on this one but the sound! amazing work! Grats!
My favorite prod on the big screen at the party :)
This was a really cool release at Kindergarden! I agree that it has even more potential, and could use better colors.
However this is still more than enough for a thumb!

now that Obama has taken over the usa intros no longer have ripped music. it was uncertain since August how Obama would handle this from the oval office.
Yes, instead of ripped music we used stripped music. High frequencies are considered a threat!
oh!
Great to see all that in 4k but i can't watch it again because of design :(
as usual --> you guys rock!!
The name's a cute joke and technically brilliant as usual but the design and sound kill it for me so pig.
i still see way too much potential in all of this,so its fukkin kewl how your pigs still can turn into ups! ;)
nice!
Cool- But i find it strange that some parts are fluid and some are slow....
all teh intro is strange @_@
rocks....
some compaints here are strange...
guys ITS IS FOUR K!

Reminds me of those demo reels done by CG pioneers in the 80s (like this famous one). And for that, a thumb is due.
Not bad for a 4K demo.
Ok.
I expect to see a lot more demos named after american states soon.

Stylish 4k :)
Awesome 4K demo. Great. I watched the video, because only music and white screen with my X1950.
works here. X1950Pro
people calling THIS medicore should better shut the fuck up and try doing something similar. This is imo a breaktrough performance and I know what I'm talking about.
Now do a linux port - because you can.

las: Do you honestly believe that people are only entitled to express their opinion about prods they can top?
please stfu or gtfo
I second optima here. Everybody who has seen and heard a production is entitled to have an opinion about it.
As far as I read the comments, nobody questions the quality of the code. Though it is sometimes hard to believe, there are some people in this world that are not turned on by coder-porn. ;)

Nice, but it has the ugliest colors ever.
nice!
dont care for the size. its just good!
4k of pure ugliness and kickass effects in a very small amount of space, that in itself must be quite an achievement :)
As allways Loonies delivers something that looks to be insanely well coded, but throws away everything else :) People used to call that oldschool.
Sure do miss u back on amiga guys :,)

awesome.
I hope a day, 4k competition will be authorized only with source code.
I'm sure this one use a DirectX DLL or OpenGl one.
When I was demomaker, we used only asm code.
See The Cartoon Fish on XP in full asm...

well back in my day after walking home from school in 9 feet of snow barefoot uphill we used toggle switches to boot our Altair
you damn kids with your fancy bios and operating systems!

Get with the times :P
aharonid: get a clue or at least find a 4k more suitable for your api bashing. This is basicly just using a minimal amount of opengl to get access to write a program for the gpu and then a software renderer doing everything itself.
(still waiting for some lazy artist to move a few color sliders btw;)

gloom: sure you don't mean "psycho"? having the same avatar does not equal being the same person :)
kusma: oh, scheisse. not enough coffe this morning :)
kusma: but you know what we always say in excess - one dane = all danes.
neh, don't like it. but can't thumb it down either.
Excellent visuals and "space" music.
good

I think you'll find that Loonies have done quite a few things before this prod, so apparently no, you don't know what you are talking about. :)
gloom: Not everybody defines "breakthrough" in the same way as the scene.org awards. ;)
Nice psychedelic trip.
nice, but not revolutionary.
blueberry: Either way, you guys have done plenty of breakthrough stuff before. :)
Goldie.
psycho, the reflections/refractions on the spheres look quite different on my ati and in the video. It still sort of draws something but looks way better in the video. I guess there is a tiny incompatability in the shader code somewhere (ati x1900)
mmmmhhhmm...... weak thumb up.
sorry
Mit Vergnügen
:)
its hard not to love these 4k worlds...
Awful graphics but lots of content. You can't just make the palette blue/orange and call that design.
Thumb up for the work done for this one.

amazing, mr. perlin!
Pretty original prod. Like the 70s feeling, graphics and music.
grey, metallic sphere planet in the space, rotating around, a star in the horizon,
synth music,
flight over planet's landscape, specular reflections of the blue mountains, orange sky clouds, red fog in the horizon, sun light, raytracing alike
lots of 3D spheres with metallic mirror texture bouncing in space
then rolling on the planet's surface
sinusoid canyon, blue, the moon in the sky
metallic spheroid figures, incrusted in the surface of a mountain
wobbly blue tunnel, walls reflected in the orange water
flying through a wobbly canyon

didn't know this... now, is it organic or non-organic...
Didn't like the music but the visuals are great
zomg, the attack of the balls! :-D
Quite loysy what we can do with RGBA^LOONIES^ANDROMEDA
Stylish, homogeneous and amazing !
MAGIC!!!!
