Well that escalated quickly. Looks pretty slick with the “supercharged vector drawings”

Awesome rendering.
Glad to see the new engine coming along.

Started slow but then got pretty nasty :) Putting the vector art standing in a line was an effective visual idea. I think the hard kick drum would've warranted a more powerful effect on screen since there wasn't really any transition animation for appearing and disappearing sprites. A slight dimming of the screen or a tiny zoom could've given the hits more impact.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to more New Engine demos!

pretty solid

Winner in my book. Can't even describe exactly why. Everything comes together naturally. It's subtle, filigrane, yet very impactful. First three places three points apart in the voting should be judged as three 1st places ^^

Should have gotten at least 3 points more.

I loved the upgrade in visual style, now we're getting somewhere :)

Love it.
The visuals and the soundtrack are carefuly crafted together, the concept is quite deep, great piece.

Exactly my taste of prods
Well done!

A late aughties demo made with 2020 energy. great work once again!

This is amazing on many levels!

I think it was the best demo at the competition. Unique visual idea (it feels like 'industrial' style which impressed me the most in this demo ) and awesome music. Great work, I loved!

Nice original.

Starts off a bit slow, then becomes awesome.

Also, great title.

moody punch to the cranium, i dig it!

A little light on content, but very well presented.
The 2D patterns work very well to fill the canvas.

I was expecting it to win the compo.

I forgot to mention that the demo doesn't detect my monitor's 1920x1200 native resolution, and since it stretches its 19/9 rendering to fit the 19/10 screen, it looks a bit distorted.

The colours are well chosen to work together :D
Anti-aliased lines please.

deserve 1st place.. Gargaj has those unique skills to make everything...
it is like I love Orange demos - they are not like best in code but I want to watch them again, and always they got not the first places...
they just doing things they like to do and only time made their staff somehow understandable.
Keep doing more cool staff!

Nice style and intense mood and music.

(.....as the ignorant moron I am, Im gonna say) It should've been released on Amiga for full masturbation points.

Awesome, especially the first phases and the last one.

Nice

+1 for the style, direction and soundtrack. Compared to let's say the P-word this is way more refined in every aspect, and especially compared to the other demos in the compo it shows how to do black & white (...ish :) )

Only "downside" is that I'm wondering if it's now just ok to get your 3D from turbosquid or sketchfab. But with the lack of 3D artists in the scene currently I can't be mad about that.

With an execution as good as this, Gargaj can have as many Ds from Sketchfab as he wants, imho
