- demo Linux Windows Chimera by Halcyon
- shifter: more new ideas. less ever so boring uninteresting 3d flyby demos with no other meaning but to show that the makers can do it in opengl.
art might be sometimes a lame excuse for crap, but more often claiming something crap is a lame excuse for narrowmindness and impatience. - isokadded on the 2002-08-05 19:04:07
- demo Linux Windows Chimera by Halcyon
- now that's a paradox.
how many prod's like chimera have you seen so far? - isokadded on the 2002-08-05 18:35:37

- "I think most people outgrew their fascination with primary colours and basic shapes by the time they left kindergarten."
"BE NORMAL! mainstream doesnt mean something bad!"
these are prolly the two most inconsiderate comments on the thread so far.
at least from where i'm standing it looks like that the fascination for basic colors and primary shapes in their different forms lasts a lifetime (at least that's the case with most people). how else could f.ex. abstract art be so popular? i guess wade thinks i'm standing in the wrong place then.
staying "normal" in the case of demoscene is staying dead. "normal" is always defined by the dominant culture. therefore there can be no universal normalcy found. usually people get bored with the current standards at some point. and therefore what is abnormal in the year 2002 can be totally normal, usual and boring in within few years. that's called cultural evolution. you wouldn't want the demos of today look as if they'd been made in 1992, would you?
thumbs up for chimera for it happens to be one of the smartest and most interesting demo ever made. coming up with new ideas is not forbidden (no, not even in the demoscene, tho most people are prolly doubtful) fuck with the standards.
halcyon rocks, a brave comeback.

- demo Windows halla by Moppi Productions
- lug00ber: you think movies or animations that are based on a novel "rip" the original story?
very stylish animation style demo with a nice Alone in the Dark type of mood in it. makes me shiver. needs some antialiasing tho. should've won. - rulezadded on the 2002-08-05 15:15:55
- 64k Windows rise by Mindforce & Park Studios [web]
- definitely above average music, especially good accomplishment for an intro. nice overall desing altho the greets part in the middle seem to be a bit apart from the overall integrity. more flatshading, please! (instead of those ever so boring badly textured flyby prods)

- demo Windows medium by Einklang.net [web]
- Cool grapchics, design and syncs, but maybe a bit too long. The soundtrack is ok but not awesome. Nevertheless definitely a demo worth watching.
