• demo ZX Spectrum theend by Thesuper
• This prod looks shinier than pretty much anything g0blinish ever made. Yet he already left here 3 comments trying to convince someone, somewhere, that this is somehow worse than the inconsequential junk he keeps releasing year after year. Maybe we need to reformat this page into a dictionary entry for hashtag #ironic?
  
  Guys, this chunky animator of yours looks great. Still, this may well be your weakest demo because of how empty it feels. Surely, you did not plan to theend with a whimper?

• demo PICO-8 New School Reunion by HOOY-PROGRAM [web] & Rift
• I like the feel of this demo, although the visuals are a mixed bag for me. Not really the first newschool on PICO, but we all could always do with a bit more, right?

• 1k ZX Spectrum TIC-TOC Intro
• @nagydani, I do not think anyone implied that you cheated.
  It is a cool prod, even if it is not really practical for a demo compo.

• @dOc.K, I guarantee you that the average ratio is far behind the Shrinkler. You probably were exceptionally lucky with your choice of test data. Anyway, send any questions you may have to zxintrospec@gmail.com

• demo Commodore 64 Stolen Properties by Triad [web]
• I loved it. Great ambience.

• demo Atari ST MOTUS by SMFX
• I've no idea why so many sceners scream "Amiga" when Atari ST has this much to offer. Particularly graphics are absolutely exceptional here, but the flow and sync are just as good. The idea to make a tunnel out of the multilayered checkboard zoomer is probably what surprised me most.

• demo BBC Micro Wave Runner by bitshifters collective [web]
• Substantial improvement on the last year's demo and quite possibly the best trackmo for BBC Micro thus far.

• demo PICO-8 earthxit by Rift
• Very solid concept.

• demotool MS-Dos Windows Commodore 64 Amstrad CPC ZX Spectrum MSX LZSA
• LZSA is a new data compressor written by Emmanuel Marty that was designed for using on small, primarily 8-bit platforms, and heavily optimized for high decompression speeds. It comes as a single executable capable of compressing into two data formats: one is a purely byte-based, aimed at the highest possible decompression speed, and another is a mixed byte/nibble-based compressor with higher compression ratios that is still capable of highly competitive decompression speed.
  
  Both compressors are also capable of some strategic variability, so for each specific compression format, one can choose to either maximize the compression ratio or to sacrifice some of the ratio (on specific files) to increase their decompression speed.
  
  Viewed from this perspective, the first available compression format, "LZSA1", can be seen as either an equivalent of LZ4 in terms of decompression speed, with about 3%+ higher compression ratio, or as equivalent of LZ4 in terms of compression ratio, while being up to 9% faster to decompress (all measurements of decompression speeds are done for Z80 decompressors).
  
  The second available compression format "LZSA2" has a compression ratio similar to ZX7 (it is possibly 1-2% worse on graphics, but is 1-2% better on most other types of data, especially for larger file sizes). At the same time, it is 50-60% faster to decompress on Z80.
  
  I contributed to this project size- and speed-optimized decompressors for Z80. The decompressors for 8088 and 6502 written by Emmanuel Marty are also provided. The project has been open-sourced:
  https://github.com/emmanuel-marty/lzsa
  so please contribute any new decompressors, or suggest improvements to the existing ones.
  
  In any way, if you are working on your next treckmo for an old computer and need to keep decompression speeds for your internal data in check, this is probably the first compressor to be designed with you in mind. Please make a demo about it!

• The only thing this misses is a perfect looping.
