- I know you credited it in the beamslide and in the nfo (which makes taking that shader okay), but still 95% of the visual content is not yours and that reduces the whole prod to a speech synth and some letters. Since it at least sounds better than the speech synths I've heard in 4k, here's a piggie. (Or is it one of the windows voice apis? I can't tell myself.)

- Very nice nods to all the previous evoke logos and invitations. Makes me feel nostalgic even for those that I didn't visit myself :) And another killer soundtrack by wright&bastard!

- 4k Windows Absolute Territory by Prismbeings
- Okay, I'll elaborate a bit on why I think this is the best 4k ever.
This was basically a thing waiting to happen: a local optimum in the space of possible 4Ks, defined by that exact gritty-but-ultrarealistic look on trivial geometry, fast-changing illumination, and music to go with both. This is obvious to me now, but wasn't before.
The rendering technique chosen (path tracing) can produce a simulation of indirect lighting, but with ridiculous amounts of noise unless the image is allowed to converge for a long time by adding more samples per pixel. BUT if you take really simple geometry (like a cube and a sphere) you can do all ray intersections in closed form and get quite a few samples within the realtime time budget. This was where I stopped thinking about it, because obviously that would be boring spheres over checkerboards (and still somewhat noisy), right? Nope: if you present it in a way that embraces the remaining noise, then things start to come together. All that it needs for this to work is fast animation of the lighting to both distract from the noise and to make it the light interesting (check.), music that supports this look (check. holy crap, the music.), and a way to pull everything together with good pacing and image composition, doing everything it can to present the trivial geometry in a way that stays interesting (CHECK). If you had failed in just one of those, it might have been an interesting 4k, but not a great one - and it would still have wasted the idea. For this to work, form and function absolutely have to come together in exactly this way and I am thankful you pulled this off.
I can image you sitting there and thinking "this is so obvious, probably everyone else is doing just this right now, let's finish FAST" :) - isokadded on the 2017-04-18 22:43:58
- 64k Windows Vessel by Conspiracy [web]
- I like how the little diamond found some friends after a journey that was probably a bit lonely. Whatever it was that made its new friends emerge from that fog came just in time to give it new energy, it seems. I'm curious about what will happen next, now that it is releasing its essence <3

- I love how the whole pacing of this thing is, well, in overdrive. The music carries it very well.

- demo JavaScript What Are You Syncing About? by Ninjadev [web]
- very enjoyable! nice oldschool vibes but always fresh, no single shot overstays its welcome and somehow even the color scheme fits. everything about this is just done right. definitely the best browser demo so far.
