• demo Windows pc-08: dead again by Panda Cube [web]
• alright, but it looks really thrown together.
  
  - bad camerawork throughout
  - the scenes look generic/pluginy (voronoi floor? greebles?)
  - if youre going to make stuff glowing emissive in a dark scene, try and make them light up the stuff around them a bit. otherwise looks cheap. looks like youre using deferred anyway so why not?
  - aliasing throughout. come on, even just adding fxaa would help and wouldn't cost you much at all.
  - overreliant on one lighting effect which is overused, old, and you could ramp up the samples a bit
  - soundtrack doesnt fit the style at all
  
  feels like efficient rather than inspired demomaking - "got a decent engine and some 3d, lets knock out a demo".

• demo Windows distance between the edges by Dead Roman
• works largely because of the sound design.
  
  i suspect there's more technically here than first meets the eye (e.g. voronoi?).
  
  congrats on finally becoming kusma!

• Pap: using Phyre wtf? I never use any work code in demos. If anything demos feed research into future work stuff. :)

• 4k Windows roger locate by Mercury [web]
• it looked nice on youtube, but running the actual exe on my radeon 7970 (just about the fastest card on the market) it was extremely slow and horribly aliased - wheres the super aa from the youtube video huh? :)
  
  anyway, the transparency looked good, the reflections looked dubious, there wasnt much content to speak of, and it looked awful without any aa.

• i dont understand the "music doesnt fit the visuals" comments at all.. for me the music *makes* the visuals.. makes the pacing and everything make sense and work :)
