- Maybe I just don't know the genre, but I didn't like this.
Drum and Bass music for 54 minutes that only changes its repetition every 30 seconds or so, accompanied by *short* looping animations that blink every few frames (thank goodness I'm not an epileptic) so you can't get a good glimpse of what it IS you're looking at; either that or they add tons of overlays and stuff and STILL flash it on the screen every few seconds...
The closest I can come to this on the demoscene is Jesus On Es by LSD, but that had much more varied music; and the graphics, though incalcuably worse, were presented such that you could see what you were looking at. - sucksadded on the 2006-09-15 02:56:41

- I seem to recall watching this over and over... although I must have done it years ago because it doesn't work in Windows XP (afaik).
If memory serves the music was cool too... - rulezadded on the 2006-09-05 05:22:27
- demo Windows Old's Cool by Brainstorm [web]
- Not quite oldschool, not quite newschool, and it's definitely not 'kings of the playground'. But other than reading out the credits, I liked it a lot (especially, for some reason, the dots tunnel- maybe because there was a scene outside the tunnel for perspective/direction)

- I think this was better than Who Killed Travolta.

- Better style than Who Killed Travolta, but WKT had better effects...

- Oh, I get it, they're diamond-shaped pills that spread out over time... Man, that screenshot must have been running a LONG time.
I wonder how long you'd have to wait for it to get back together again? - rulezadded on the 2006-09-05 03:24:59

- Well, I'm going to thumb it up anyway, because what I saw was enough for a thumb.

- Hmm... as for growthings, having seen the video, I didn't exactly see them as intended. Instead of growing, they seem to show up as zoomed in overlays, for the period of time they SHOULD be growing (according to the video). It's a rather odd effect, and makes a few of the words much harder to read (not that I can read German anyway- I never would have guessed anything like the translation)
I saw nothing like the text outline drawing. That's where the artifact comes in, and that's where I'm guessing the pixel shaders are required. - isokadded on the 2006-09-04 09:10:56

- Uh, no. The first thing I see (once the music starts) is 'warum fühle ich' rushing in at me on a white background. The last thing I see is 'allein' rushing out, and then the piano starts. All I can see for a minute or so is a static distorted 3-shaped sort of thing that looks more like a leftover display artifact than any demo object.
I don't have Pixel Shaders 2 on this thing (GeForce 4 Ti 4200 Go)... maybe I need some other SDL component I don't have installed?
(I checked the page of requirements and all that's missing was libsdl-sound1.2) - isokadded on the 2006-09-04 08:16:52
