• demo Amiga AGA data delight by Nature [web]
• + tastefully crafted effects (I really like the blurred cubes or greetings part)
  + nice palettes and colour choices (extremely rare thing among the coders!)
  + good sounding and fitting music (after the first minute)
  - too long and somewhat bland intro
  - noisy bass sample (first I even thought it was 22kHz ADPCM wave file playing!) and overall a bit boring intro part of the track
  
  Malmix' aproach to demo making reminds me a bit of Slummy and Shadez, those three have something in common IMO. To put in another way - a future Amiga demo star is born! :) The only thing that I think could be improved is the transitions. I just love when one effect is a "natural" or perhaps "logical" (I'm sure you know what I'm just trying to say) consequence of the another. But that's just minor nitpicking.

• diskmag Amiga OCS/ECS Irregular Review #1 by Spaceballs [web]
• - not a single mention of polish scene
  - 1991ish sounding music vs. modern looking visuals
  + great idea
  + well written texts
  + awesome looking menu
  
  Now for some nitpicking from a delicate aesthetician. I know The Bastard loves to keep things simple and usually I totally love it, but this time I'm not quite sure… The thing looks more like a text viewer than a diskmagazine to me; I'd love to see some panels, cliparts or columns (done in a modern way).
  
  Few months ago I was talking to someone about making an alltime top of Amiga demos. With a huge amount of people voting. We all know that Pouet charts are not too reliable since people vote mostly for new productions. Perhaps it would be a good idea to make it in Irregular Review?

• 64k Amiga OCS/ECS b0k intro by Jumalauta [web]
• Quite nice twister show accompanied by sound of a broken washing machine.

• demo Commodore 64 fREUd [reu] by Hoaxers
• Now, this is what I'd call a good twister! I also enjoyed the scroller bars a lot.

• 64k Amiga AGA Red Eye by Sonik Clique [web]
• Looks like another take on Invitation None effects, but who cares when it's this good. These particle-based stuff is something that I'll never get bored of. And what Dodke said.

• demo Amiga AGA Invitation none by Sonik Clique [web]
• I still enjoy this demo a lot. The cloud-like effect, the choice of colours and tastefully understated music… Deserves more love. I miss stuff like this, especially in 2016, dominated by 1-screen compo fillers…

• demo Amiga OCS/ECS Planet Rocklobster by Oxyron [web]
• Ah, this one has the potential to be a truly killer demo. Voxel landscape in HAM6 mode, rotozoomer, copper chunky city and motion blur are one of the best effects I've seen on A500. But then again the gfx is way below average (except for logos) - fullscreens look like from a very old C64 demo... When I listen to the music I hear different pieces glued together rather than a complemetary soundtrack. But I quite liked some of the parts. Meh for 1991 samples, though. There are some nice transitions like pixel rocklobster to wireframe one, but overall the whole thing looks too much like one-effect-jumping-into-another. Anyway - all those complaints pale in comparison to the crazy good code. So thumb up! And what Gargaj said.

• demo Amiga OCS/ECS Absolute Inebriation by Virtual Dreams & Fairlight [web]
• Wow, quite a coding here! I really enjoyed the zoomer, chessball or flatshade stuff. Some nice transitions, but flow/pacing is terrible all over... Demo features exceptional music (endpart tune is one of my favourite modules of alltime), but the music doesn't fit at all IMO.
  
  Dr. Skull says in endscroller that one can buy the sources for $250 :-) Are they by any chance available online now?

• cracktro intro Amiga OCS/ECS Decrunch compo-filler (cracktro style) by Wanted Team [web]
• Awesome logo, looks almost like AGA to me. Clean design and neat chip tune in the vein of Scorpik or Dan :-)
