- demo Atari STe The Coders' Guide To The Demoscene by Acid Team [web] & Jakub Husak
- Always great to see any new ST/e release and there is some great stuff here (love the plasma and your datasets are gorgeous), even though there are elements that are not to my taste (i.e. what Keops said).
However, with regret this has to be a piggie for me, because I just can't abide by a "serious", major (and hyped) release like this essentially replacing hand drawn gfx/real graphicians (and all the design that comes along with this) with AI. This is not a vision for the future demoscene that I can get on board with, and feels like such a loss for both this prod and the broader Atari scene. There are a bunch of extremely talented graphicians who I'm sure would have jumped at the chance to be involved.
As an aside, it's pretty disturbing that the voting audience either didn't notice or care about the AI in this and other entries at this party. I didn't used to think this, but this is a pretty strong argument for separating AI based entries into other compo categories (perhaps even Wild, as has been suggested), or tightening rules as 505 mentions.
Makers: hope you still make more ST/e stuff though x - isokadded on the 2024-08-26 17:49:19

- Lovvvvvvve this! Love the style and msx, and the effects are :o too - colours look fantastic. SibKrew rules.

This is the intro I would make if I was better at this. - rulezadded on the 2024-08-20 07:39:07
- 4k Atari STe 4k-Tribute by Oxygene [web]
- I really love this. The original screen/msx is one of my favourite ever from the very early 90s. This redoing goes full overscan and quadruples the sprite size, in just 4k! Very smart and I wonder how you did it :)

- demo Atari STe Time by Bitbendaz
- Lovely flow and presentation, and great to see more "big" ST/e releases. My compo favourite!

- demo Atari ST (n)0 PIXELS (n)0 REGRETS by Dead Hackers Society [web]
- Oh there's so much awesome stuff here. Beautiful colour choices, kicking msx, 15 (?) quality effects, and some really neat tricks in there - I particularly love the subtly offset/interlaced display for the fire/cube part, which totally beats a previous version of the same effect which doesn't use rasters at all :) Awesome.

- 96k Atari ST A Series of Raster Effects by SMFX
- @jobbo
Thanks for the interest :). Every effect is achieved by syncing our code to the electron beam and then changing colour 0. A lot. And we don't have anything like Copper on the ST, so this all has to be done with CPU only.
The nfo has more details if you're interested to read more. - isokadded on the 2024-07-08 00:04:22
- demo Amiga OCS/ECS Is Real by Desire [web]
- Reconsidered thumb. Gave it some disconnected abstract blah blah above, but having met the author of this work and noting his completely earnest humanity with regard to this prod, I'm wondering why I was so judgemental about another person's creative drives. -1 for internet bullshit, +1 for self expression - beautiful prod
