- demo Amiga OCS/ECS Made In Japan by Darkness
- Have you heard of the sunken cost fallacy? That feeling when you've spent a certain amount of time or money in doing something so to simply quit becomes more and more difficult as things progress? That kicked in for me at around the 25 minute mark in capturing this demo. It's a real shame because what's here is really nice but there are serious pacing issues, mostly as a result of the writing routine during the checkerboard sections in between the 'main' effects. I don't know if it's something to do with my configuration or not but it's excruciatingly slow and in the end I really did have to just give up
With that being said, it's actually put together really nicely and I like the morph effects that take place, the face part was great with the psuedo-UI but I really smiled when the Amiga turned into a Gameboy. Tune is decent too but at over an hour run time I would've liked about another 10 more to go with it. - rulezadded on the 2023-01-04 23:03:08
- demo Amiga OCS/ECS Party Smooth Grid by Ipec Elite
- There's the main part which is obviously the rainbow grid thing and the copper blinds thingy. It's not bad, considering this was their first release. I like the music except for the rather excessive retrigger abuse on the 'ha ha ha' sample. It's got rainbows though so of course I have no further complaints, nice one :)

- demo Amiga OCS/ECS Sequential by Andromeda [web]
- It is a true masterclass in presentation and pacing. What an excellent demo. Best bit for me was probably the 3D morph vector section but there's so much to like here. The bit I actually enjoyed the most, was the text explaining all of the effects and how they were achieved - I love when that happens. The story at the end gave me a chuckle and it left me with quite a cosy feeling overall (the way the demo ended, not the smutty story). It didn't end dark and brooding like it started, so a real journey.

- demo Amiga OCS/ECS Wonderful by The Hacking Relation
- There's no year listed but there's a couple of clues in the demo itself - the most obvious being the diskette with '89 on it, and then we've got a house tune with some ravey stabs going on, dating this around that time too and then finally, the style - it's just got 89 written all over it. nice :)
