  And secondly, about the narrative. Thanks for the writeup. I picked up there's something going on, but it didn't make sense for me when watching demo. Batman almost certainly died with the city, pictures of his enemies are shown, batman-statue gets destroyed, then rebuilt and then he wakes up. But it didn't occur to me that it was the dream and the near-death experience of the titular character himself.
  
  So one could say that the dream-ness could have been spelled out more clearly in the demo, but - Even if the viewer might not get the narrative tangibly, I think it can be still understood "subconsciously". It is guiding the choices of how individual scenes are presented by the authors, a bit like language in general - individual words with lots of different meanings are used to shape up a thought. Or notes of a chord. Or melody.
  
  It's possible to have a demo with great routines, music and graphics, while still being empty and pointless inside. And likewise it's possible to have a very buggy and "lame" hackjob that still communicates something. (even if it's only the joy that it's authors had while making it) - So yeah, having a narration definitely makes sense in a demo context too.

• demo Amiga OCS/ECS Batman Rises by Batman Group
• Wow! My favourites were the rotozoomer and dithered galaxy fade out, and nice, bold usage of interlacing :)
  
  Music was also nice, totally unlike most of the demo musics :)
