i'm a huge fan of this intro. the atmosphere is so great.. definitely an intro to watch on a bigscreen. respect. (i'vent tested it on my pc)

Cubes up the wazoo, a city of them basically. And some "sunlight" adds a nice atmosphere to it. But I guess you'll need a fast PC (it was a little slow on the MS compo machine).
atmospheric indeed. and much of that is thanks to a-move's brilliant music.
i just wish the intro wasn't so slow. it doesn't need to be. we're talking flat shaded cubes...
final ver will fix this i hope? (please)

really slow, but a wonderfull demo with great athmosphere
It seems to require about three gazillion gigahertzs but it is beautiful.
its so fuckin slow, really!
otherwise its my favorite 64K i guess - but i still didnt manage to find any PC here on which the intro could run at decent speed.
lame coding eh? =]

The sun shining through all those flat-shaded buildings was quite neat in some respects. But overall I found the demo boring. It didn't really seem to do anything or go anywhere.
good idea, good execution. All those orange buildings bring the vga to its knees, but the result is well worth it. The music rulez. :-)
The awesome music sets a very nice mood. Only pluses. Nice sun effect too. Truly great, I think this intro is underated :( It deserves more then a measly 5%.
Neat. I'm not a big fan of flatshaded cubes but hey, this one is different.
nice city.. bit boring tho and a few irritating glitches/artifacts.. but nice work!
great atmosphere. far far far far far above the usual boring flyby crap. very good looking flat shaded stuff and mindblowing music.
it could have run smoother, though... but i'll give it a huuuge "rulez" anyway!

Cool prods.

Good job!!!

to the coder: give me the source and i'll optimize it <g>.
This was the best 64k at mekka 2001, and also is one of the very few 4ks i still keep on my hd and watch over and over again. perfect.
two things: i dislike the break with the greetings in the middle. and the planes floating upwards to the sky at the end don't need a texture imho. otherwise great sunlight effect, and a-move's music is superb anyway.
the best 64k at mekka? jezus christ do you have shit in your eyes ;)
The best sky I've every seen. Amazingly enough, it works very smoothly on my comp. Supah moosic!
I really like the atmosphere
Fucking awesome soundtrack!
Slow as hell but.....really nice intro!

I hereby emphasise poi²'s point.
Slow as fuck, but the flare rules big time and the music is quite chilling. It also gets quite boring after a while, but it's good if you are stoned.
nice ambient indeed 8)
silky smooth on my poor old pIII/gf3 box, and precalcs roughly at 15-20 seconds too - dunno why you guys complain so much about this thing being sluggish.
one of my personal favorites indeed. great music, great city, great sunlight.

amove, you already know what i think of your works, this is definatly no exception, we 'must' do a coop some day soon :)
as for the intro, without the music this intro would probably end up quite a bit more monotonous than it already is.
however, the general ambiance is warm and cuddly, and the whole thing fits perfectly with the music.
might've been cooler with some better cammovement and randomly inserted synching
very slow on a tnt2 but i wont hold that against them, there are worse examples out there :)

HUUUUUUUUUUUM i want more candy!!!!
Runs at the wrong screen resolution or colour depth or something for me.
nice one, tho might need a bit optimizing...
+ music; general atmosphere
- texture on those ascending planes (echoing Robotriot)

definitely above average music, especially good accomplishment for an intro. nice overall desing altho the greets part in the middle seem to be a bit apart from the overall integrity. more flatshading, please! (instead of those ever so boring badly textured flyby prods)

Uhm, just noticed that I haven't voted for this great intro yet.
oh... yes. nice.
THIS IS GREAT! one of my fav. great code, great design, but hell! a-move´s music is awesome *Gosh*! keep up the good work hendrik
I love it!
This stuff is great!
Diz was absolutely nice!!!
Very beautiful
Suggestive!
sunburn on
Rise voting day? Seems so. Yes, a very nice intro and good sound.

if aliasing had a name, it would be rise.. however it has a nice feel to it.
AWSUMMMMMMMM!!!
On modern pc's this is starting to look really good.
i can see lens flares enough in painting programs. not special mood when flying around city of boxes. music was cool
so nice nice nice. like the music too too too.
i like it!
great quiet prod
thise one really deserves more popularity...
Excellent and unusual music, and on a fast machine not only is it smooth, but I can see the last part of the flyby sequences. I wish they'd removed the popping excuses-for-drums from the soundtrack, but other than that it's amazing. I've watched it at least thirty times since I first downloaded it in 2001, and it's still worth seeing again.
totally lovely atmosphere due the soundtrack :)
nice
10 out of 10 point for the loading procedure.. the rest is pretty okay too =>
Flatshaded boxes.... Somehow I never liked this intro
Flatshaded boxes... But still this manages to rule somehow.
+ stylish visuals

Yeah, loader was pretty cool. The rest was style.
Great mood and excellent music!
The music, the music...
Well, it was never my piece of cake, as flatshaded boxes and slow pace never took my attention (and it run very slow in my pc's when this one came out). Piggie
nice style
Great music , great atmosphere..
nice :) and the music is great
WORD!
relax feeling with the sunny colors and tune.
i tried to like it.. i really did. but to me it was just too much of the same thing. sorry.
feels nice here.
Kudos.
This music is so sweet. With those back fading bass. Is the main reason for the thumb up.
music is very neat and very relaxing. intro is not that great compared to music but deserves a pig...
incredibly boring...
rather boring flyby.. technical and content-wise..
but the outstanding beautiful relaxing soundtrack saved it from a thumb-down

thumbs up for still working 6 years on.. kind of an ambient ancestor of debris :)
This one really stood out for me back in the day thanks to the awesome music. Thumbs up!
awesome melody and a nice atmosphere
atmosphere, music - all time classic
feel the sunshine
Freaken beautiful.
I've always loved everything by a-move :D So relaxing and meditative...
Hmm, it seems that my comment evaporated together with the flat dark squares...
Very nice and chilling. Slow indeed on old gfxcard.

a-move! absolutely gorgeous visuals too.
good-o
Music is great, the rest is fugly.
Great intro, with a superb soundtrack.
a bit boring, but the flare is cool
I'm still liking this because of music and flare-sun, which makes the city feel like its hot in there..
not a big prod, but nice music makes it nice intro
The music is just awesome!
happy 10 year anniversary
I didn't like it so much back in the days, but it was really nice to re-watch now. Nice flow and direction, awesome music. This intro-style has more or less disappeared these days, I blame ray-marching.
great soundtrack - really love it. The demo itself is running with quite lowfps, even on fast machines that are 10years older than the demo :|
Anyway, it deserves a highres Youtube capture :)

really great intro!
rewatched it: totally lovely and awesome! thanks! :)
Should have won!
atmosphere and music
Soundtrack is absolutely mind-blowing. I love the overall mood of this prod :)
Nice music
nice, but looks like it has severe timing issues
Classic visual style, fantastic music, nice and warm feeling.
Rules
still so good to this day, great ambience & amazing music by a-move too, definately one of my favs,
<3 the music
Lovely atmosphere. Some composition and particle effects have not aged well but I think stylistically this has stood the test of time.
relaxing, love the music
so beautiful. esp the music, but also the scenes and athmosphere. perfect!
Fantastic 64k for its time. The music & atmosphere carry it and prevent it from being (too) dated.
very old, but still good.
Still good
not greeting NoooN trolling my vital space sucks !
might have impressed me back then but now ... a bit of a boring show.
Can't beat those lens flares. This must be doing something nasty (bazillion draw calls?) because it still runs pretty slowly :)
What sea_monkey said back in 2001.
cute
good
also.. czy slyszysz? :D (some will know)
Very nice feeling.
music and that sun effect
nice :)
classic
Still works, but modern GPUs are just too darned fast for it to handle, so it stutters. I found that setting Vsync to Adaptive half-rate in NVidia Control Panel helps, but it's not perfect, so if possible you'll want to limit your GPU to 20-24 Hz. :)
music is such a vibe
Absolutely lovely mood!
