Stellar quality.
terrible gfx
This was fun. ZX style is strong in this one.
Wow! thank you! this is a very nice way to see (thanks to youtube) rasters & splitrasters in action on your platform. I like also the work on gfx (nice way again to see what character mode can do (with rasters)). Just a question, reading the nfo: sync is done for Pentagon128 only? which means: (split-)rasters timings are fucked up on other ZX (Sinclair one's, etc)?
Excellent demo! I am delighted!
Nice gfx, nice music and most definitely nice code!
Really awesome, very entertaining =)
What can I add? Proper good ZX demo!
A stunning demo that will serve as a reference point for many future demos messing with "rasters" (no-one calls them that on Spectrum :) ). My personal highlights are rotating circles scene and amazing soundtrack. The demo shows massive amounts of dedication and love and it is always great to see. Shame that a lot of it cannot possibly done on classic Spectrums (e.g. the rotating circles), but then again it is so nice it had to be done no matter what.
The THUMB of course!
love the gfx
Great tune, cool effects, well done bitmaps all around. Many effects unlike most spectrum demo effects so that's always refreshing.
Great!
Up for a great demo. But is this Pentagon w/ gigascreen only?
This is massive with great soundtrack and art. I saw more colors than Specturm, is it the flickery tricks? I am gonna try on emul.
Optimus, you're right - this is gigascreen. And note that the main idea of this demo is fullscreen scenes, with border activity.
I didn't know about gigascreen but I read on the wiki, it makes sense now. Still cool demo.
Neat.
Fast-paced demo, well polished, really pleasant to watch! Thx!
Very nice gfxs (especially the main title logo) and fresh effects.
cool
ALL in ALL .... KEWL ;)
AMIGAAAAAA!!!
border masters!
cool border!
Awesome!
my spectrum never had purple!!!
Cool demo, with great multicolor, border, gigascreen effects!
break the borders! ;) awesome multigigabordercolor stuff with nice music. and DAT ROTATOR! O_O
Breathtaking.
great!
good!
very cool ! the real winner !
worthy winner. everything worked well together.
normal (flic) YouTube
I think it should be honest to provide both flic and no-flic videos for sucha type of releases.

i love it! the synch, the fast pace, the graphics, the music...
Across all borders! :)
Well, Eye Ache by codebusters ironically gave me less eye-cancer than this and also features neat border effects.
Sorry, I meant Rage by X-Trade, but you know what I mean. ;-)
Great
unbeliever, what the hell is that? your youtube-version is wrong and does not contain source colors. We need someone who can record the demo on cam from real pentagon. Anybody?
Exin, your irony is clear to us) but i advise you to watch the demo on real hw for understanding that the flickers are not so harmfully for your eyes and brains)

Well deserved compo winner! I really like the logo at the start.
Awesome, love the rasters action!
+ I like the intro with tape noise and lines
Fine stuff
love it ! more please
I really dislike the fake emulator-blended videos that are posted for many of these "gigascreen" demos. To me it seems like unbelievers video is closer to what you see on real hw than the original youtube.
Still, nice border stuff!

Great use of colours in the comics, and horns up \,,/
awesome no border demo!! pure technical craftery!!
but need to be sad that I would LOVE to see zx spectrum version.

unbeliever, i need to take my words back, sorry. Just didnt know that i should watch it in 1980p50
zeebr, video from unbeliever (youtube "demoscene" channel) like your demo on my zx evo.
so, noflick is hack!

Great! Unbelievable level, have to see it again on a real hardware.
Sweet! that first 'across the edge' (isometric looking one) really rocks!
Unreal!
Breaking the borders!
Sets the bar too high )
kewl!
have to agree with g0blinish. the gfx was cringy.
break space by thesuper was better.

holy moly, they are back. top quality prod
rev++ :) great next generation of some classics ( Rage )
not bad!
nice
\o/
awesome on all aspects: design, music, code.
its hard to see where the borders, the loading screen in the vid can be used as reference ? some stuff seems way too hires, like the dj guys with rotating yellow and purple stripes. how is that done ?

That's not breaking the borders - this is smashing them into pieces!
great work on ye olde zx1
great work on ye olde zx1
Very enjoyable to watch. Great rhythm, style and execution.
Good work, guys!
Massive pack of very good border fx with pleasant and bright soundtrack. A lot of parts looks really cool at the big screen. And yeah, unfortunately it is only a Pentagon demo, and some fx can't be done on a classic hardware. But still it was a cool show.
This has the flow! Awesome!
Excellent
Superb!!! Best Spectrum (Pentagon128) demo i have seen until now!!!

Yes.
fantastic!
Nice. :)
fantastic presentation and music! Some of the pacing was a bit off, but that's a very small gripe with this very awesome prod. Fun to watch :)
Holy shit! That's pretty boss!
Can't assess the technical merits, but I enjoyed it although the pacing was indeed a bit off.
yep
dat sondz
Solid
Superb pixel graphics, perfect for the spectrum colors!
Deserved one or more thumbs up for this great gigascreen pentagon demo - pretty good design, sync and flow, nice gfx and cool nq's music. Rage kickasser with such mindblowing border-paper rules broken!
Just one note: You better watch your grandiloquent statements in YT video description that states of usage standard speccy features but it's time to pentagon only that you haven't time to fix for speccy...?
so, definitelly not, because this demo is for slightly different computer which allows all what we can't do on our old good speccy 128k - you haven't slower access to some places of RAM and all those contention issues, you can change border color anytime off the 8ths, and put your interrupt vector anywhere. ;))

great
took me so long to make a comment due to deep thought about zx demoscene on the whole.
now i can say with certainty that it's quite a deserved winner. great breakthrough effects, good pace with a nice soundtrack, as been said. it lacks microsync and a bit tightened in a few spots but overall effect smoothes everything.
thanks for this demo and waiting for the next!

long and good :)

nice
super!
I'm impressed again. I like gigascreen and border effects. This one is maybe the best border(less) demo, yet we must all agree that pentagon can create more detailed border effects than the original. So this demo cannot be fully 'fixed' for zx spectrum without making some sacrifices.
I know pentagon is a legit clone with many users, but sadly for us, who only have original spectrums, this demo is just another emulator food.
I'm one of the fans of DeMarche, and I appreciated the past efforts of tap based original 128k releases, yet this one is a miss. Please consider that there are sinclair only sceners without pentagons.
Anyway, original or not, it's a great demo and border twister looks great. I salute TmK. and send my congrats and thanks to zeebr and n1k-o.
tldr; rulez but with conditions.

Runs nicely on my intfixed + expanded Pentagon48 :)
Only issue as usual, the gigascreen stuff looks nice on old CRTs/emulators but becomes a flickery mess with high quality CRTs (Sony PVM ftw!) or LCDs.

Seems i have forgotten to thumb up this nice demo
Awesome demo, but not for my machine; plus the flickering hurts my eyes :/
The sources on the board, folks!
great
