- 32k Amstrad CPC Sunny Day (for A Shadow Party)
- Regarding the screenshot, I know it is dull, this is to not spoil the buildup that some of you explained they appreciated. You only get one change to be surprised when seeing the demo, and if someone tells you, you never get it. :-)

- 32k Amstrad CPC Sunny Day (for A Shadow Party)
- Thank you all for your feedback. I'm especially glad you like the "fresh air, something new" aspect of it.
It's nice to make a prod and see many big names of the CPC scene appreciate it and some ask for more.
I've started working on this a long time ago (found notes more than two years and two months old). It slowly matured, requiring a number of experiments and improvements.
I have expanded versions in mind and other, quite different, projects. See you and keep up the good work! - isokadded on the 2025-07-10 17:38:31

- 1k ZX Spectrum TIC-TOC Intro
- Thanks to the author for explaining the situation, exact rules and why it was okay. On-machine computation is always a nice edge. Congrats! No mention about the inter-frame compression/decompression scheme? Also, @nagydani will you publish source code?

- 128b MS-Dos silicate
- When you write a textured multi-plane parallax effect and it's buggy. Just kidding, it's excellent for the size. Near the end (2:11 in the video) a few pixels crawl to the right for 1.5 lines, surprising.

- demo Amstrad CPC bucket in space by Oneman
- Nice! 3D starfield with smooth slow motion direction change, space and time-based dithering for dimmer blue, unusual on the CPC. Best on a real machine. For another recent prod with a fly-through 3D starfield, see https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=89060 (disclaimer: I made it).

- dentro MS-Dos EGA NOSTALGIA
- The demozoo link shows two versions of this prod. They actually work both in DOSBox. Yet for an unknown reason DOSBox runs the whole thing very slowly (like 6fps instead of native EGA framerate). The demo starts with a linking step of the assets in memory, which takes at most a couple of seconds on a real machine and 70 seconds (on my machine) in DOSBox. All in all, DOSBox doesn't do justice to this prod.

- 16k Amstrad CPC TriangulArt by Impact
- Love it. Triangubatman is funny. Good idea to show pictures a second time but with double buffer. Nice end. The whole thing brings some fresh air in the CPC demo scene (I try too, in my prods).

- 16k Amstrad CPC 2021 a CPC Odyssey by cpcitor & The Other Days [web]
- Thanks all for your feedback. Hehe, thanks @norecess for noticing my sense of details! Youtube links pending: for common 60Hz displays , and for 50Hz displays, to preserve smooth scrolling even on a modern machine.
