• demo ZX Spectrum GronGift25 by zxgfxcrew
• Given that this is a somewhat personal demo, it felt natural to send the wishes in the birthday boy's native language (also, not everyone involved in the creation might be fluent enough in English to express them without resorting to platitudes and boilerplate phrases).
  
  Not sure if anyone feels like making a translation for a video (it already was quite a crunch to beat the clock, we need to cool down :) ) - but I plan to release the sources on github soon and they will contain the machine-readable wishes so you could use your fav translator on those :)

• demo ZX Enhanced Touching the Sun by Virtual Vision Group
• Of course its architecture alone is enough to be considered retro. You cannot close the gap to modern stuff by speeding it up just hundreds of times as you hypothesized, the gap is much wider - you'd need to speed it up several million times. And the Next, to remind you, is only 5-8x times faster than the original ZX Spectrum - not close to even break out from its own league.
  
  And of course a 1994 - let alone 1989 - tech is retro. What year are you living in? We're about to enter the second quarter of the 21st century; current consumer grade hw is more performant than supercomputers from that bygone era, and you somehow still doubt whether 1989 should be considered retro.
  
  Pointless argument. Go write a demo for the Next and prove that it can rival modern demos... or for that matter, even Amiga and PC demos from that era.

• game Amiga AGA wild flying by Push Entertainment [web]
• Cool idea for an Amiga game!

• demo ZX Spectrum lifeforms by Placebo
• The peak of ZX Spectrum tech. Very rare to see such an advanced realtime rendering tech on this 8-bit platform. A lot of later demos may look nicer/faster, but are essentially precalculated data players with 0 interactivity.

• intro ZX Spectrum Technogen by Brainwave
• Impressive code, good fps.
• rulezadded on the 2025-11-28 22:01:46
• invitation ZX Spectrum Hackers Top 2010 Autumn Edition Invitation by Target Team
• Probably one of the pioneering uses of raymarching on the ZX Spectrum (another one I recall is in in the intro for InfoGuide #05 diskmag from 2004, but this is rare on the platform).

• demo ZX Spectrum Timmy by Speccy.pl [web]
• Remains pretty much the only demo for the platform to this day. Rulez.
