Amazing!

I thought of the same technique last night, now here it is done. I don't think faster is possible. You lay out chars 32 vertically so Y is y and X is the high byte. 16 cycles to plot. Then you can sort the pixels to change only the low byte, and self mod in zero page.

Tack!

Sweet Short! 🤎

Great! 👍

RIP Phantom 😢

I have to admit this demo is très good. I come from Amiga world and I must admit in 1989 nothing on Amiga beats it, even Kefrens Megademo 7 or Red Sector megademo don't reach it (no inconvex vector for instance). At that time, the only very very good one (both technicaly and artistically) on Amiga which could compet is 'Wild Copper Megalo Demos' from 1988. Stunning Atari demo for sure. Btw, in this demo what is the screen with the famous first overscan feature ?

😂

We live in a world in which, since 1994, devices for entertainment purposes can process environments with realities similar to ours.

you're telling me someone figured out a way to pull off .mod playback on this thing AND not hog the cpu? travellers tales would be kicking themselves!

Nice!

Looks good. Is it 25 fps? - or 20 perhaps?

And then i proceed to play super arabian

It has the same soundchip as the SEGA Master System and SG1000

wtf ! I hear nothing

Beautiful piece, so much stuff, all those dedication. Bravo, it's a marvel as all landscape shape in a few bit !

Woah, do it on snes it'll be easier on snes

I wonder if most of these are pre-rendered.

?

For those wanting the tune, Mad Max - ACE 2, a cover of Rob Hubbard's C64 original, and it's very nice!

That was the OST from Thrust, if memory serves well

yes!

Skaven's part kinda sounds like the a sequel to the first Unreal demo

Much neater version (intro, @JessOVR's cover less butchered, proper mode 2 capture, ...) here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oqyUrNmcxNKphnU.html thanks to RouDouDou!

This was even today an extremely good vector routine and in 1990 it was extraordinary. Consider this is just an motorola 68000 cpu at 0,008GHz with a slow multiplication and even slower division.

snes scene rox!!

IIRC correctly, each member of the team made their own demo, and the Flying Lion demo selector was a clever alternative to a boring text menu. I remember this taking me a full hour to download the 800k demo at 1200baud.

I don't know why, but I remember this being a lot more impressive when I was young. I believe every member of the team made their own small demo, and the Flying Lion interface was created as a more interesting way of trying it all together than a boring menu. At 800K (completely filling an Extended Format 720K floppy), it took me a full hour to download at 1200baud. Today, I could d/l it several times over in a split second at modern Internet speeds.

Is this just playing a video using pre-rendered VRAM tiles or is it actually rendering polygons in real time?

isnt this music from Desert Dream amiga demo?

Dang... I was 11...

This is Gizmo from Electronic Images / Inner Circle demo group. It is with great sadness to tell you all that The Phantom (Jose Commins) lost a battle with cancer on the 17th March 2024 at 52 years old. From the age of just kids in the school playground, we skipped playing football, we weren’t interested, we huddled around a computer manual. Passing pages and trying to understand the technicality together. We filled each other's blanks and most importantly evolved friendship and understanding together during a lifetime. We crossed technological discoveries and had countless eureka moments. With no internet, mobile, it was just us and later some contacts. Creativeness was rampant, hacking, in the original sense of the word, pushing boundaries, and the Decade Demo was the most outstanding collaboration with all our contacts. Self-taught 68000 assembler coder. I would use his skill to help me, from creating routines to aid with the display of an SPX pictures to de-packing binaries I could call upon in GFA Basic and that was just the tip of the iceberg. May your soul live on in the beautiful history you have created. Farewell brother.

Sampled from Front242 - No Shuffle

Music from I, ball, which is a chip conversion of a song by Cabaret Voltaire. IIRC it was "I Want You" and another song.

1:00 - WHY don't you shout ???

Sick

the gba is an absolute monster compared to 4th gen systems

Ooh... ST GEM icons

That, looks awesome for the '2600

HOW?! This is on a stock 4K cart, is this bus stuffing?

I remember getting the whole source for this on a floppy - I can't remember where I got it from though, I wonder if it's still available?

We just Segarolled. I remember my sis had a Master System. Back in the mists of time.

Sega CD: I CAN DO FMV!!!! Sega Master System: *Hold my cartridges...*

Beautiful 😊

Native Atari ST with standard 1megabyte of memory?

One of the bestest thingees on da interwebz!

I really liked the life effect at 2:18, the high speed disintegration animation looks cool

The ship sprites at 2:54 are very impressive

Wow... I remember seeing this being made right back in the day... can't believe it's released lol..! Brilliant!!
