- Simulates the "found footage" degraded video experience better than any other demo to date. It proves that with image quality, sometimes less can be more. I'm glad it stayed full framerate, that helped with the illusion of video. Like other UD/CNS releases, the story is somewhat open to interpretation but the direction and narration are there. Good sound design, which was necessary for it to work.

- demo Windows Ground Zero by Norferin
- If you're gonna make a 2 GB demo, make it worth the download. This is just 64kb worth of effects plus a soundtrack and a couple AI pictures. At least 1976 had a gigabyte worth of point cloud data.

- demo SEGA Genesis/Mega Drive The Kessler Incident by Resistance [web]
- It's no Overdrive, but it's very nicely done.

- demo Amiga AGA extralife by Abyss [web]
- Full of late 90s pixel/electronica vibe. Regarding the secret parts, #1 works in WinUAE (insert any disk in df0, start the demo, eject the disk, click Secret Part). Haven't tried letting the scroller run three times but I assume it works. There are a bunch of Youtube captures but I couldn't find any that included the hidden parts, so hopefully someone (or even I) will add one someday.

- demo Linux Windows MacOSX Intel 1976 by Damage
- Fellow 1976-er here. :) Totally LIDAR-rific, with a bit but not too much nostalgia thrown in (the nixie tube year counter was a nice touch). The train part reminded me of ASD's Rupture a bit. The head credits were pretty badass.
And dammit, stop thumbing up your own stuff! :) You can be proud of your work, but it still comes off a little vain. - rulezadded on the 2023-09-04 17:29:38
- 8k Windows DROIDS by ADDiCT [web]
- Love that bouncy bass! Overall great, but the last part could use some different camera angles.

- demo Windows hifi 8032 by Smash Designs [web] & Teklords [web]
- Finally captured! Works with dgVoodoo2 with Output API set to Direct3D 11 MS WARP (software). Classic pre-farbrausch electro.

- demo Windows The Legend of Sisyphus by Andromeda Software Development [web]
- As a music (hah, amusic) video, maybe it's too long. As a demo, I think it's fine.. maybe you could shorten up a couple parts but you wanted to get all the effects and storyline in there. But this is where, after a few decades of growth, I hoped the level of demoscene talent would be by now. It also takes imagination and creativity, which they have in droves. It feels miles above the other compo entries, particularly the ones with "look, we managed to do the thing that (Unity/Unreal Engine/Notch) does". I wanted to reply to the whole filesize argument above, but.. I just can't. It made my head hurt.
Kudos for the amazing soundtrack, direction, and coding that doesn't kill a last-generation GPU. I even felt a bit of Purple Motion-style chord progression in the music. But this is Future Crew-level talent extrapolated 30 years ahead. - rulezadded on the 2023-08-18 20:51:51
