Very good. Some impressive scrolleffects if I remember everything correctly.

This was not a demo just to be watched and then forgotten....
I spend much time trying to figure out the impossible(?) blitter "violating" zoom effects!!!

Totally cool parts and very nice graphics. The 5bpl zoomer and the zooming sinescroll are particularly cool.

I was very fortunate to have a long talk with the gfx guy of this demo, whose name i cannot remember today. But i remember that i enjoyed this very much and it was a deserved winner.

At the time this was an awesome demo and it still is. I loved it and booted it over and over again. :) I especially liked the music by Jayce. Gfx by Fresh and code by Crackerjack are excellent too of course.

clean
Heh. Their reaction to too much filled vectors is my reaction to too many also-rans coming during 1991. ;) This isn't quite an also-ran, the halfres perspective scroller and zoom scroller should be appreciated if they run at 50 fps, and the writer is nice.

The demo is made for expanded Amiga with harddisk. I couldn't judge the framerate on OCS, because it doesn't run on any of my OCS/ECS Amigas nor WinUAE. On AGA it starts, then hangs. Could be the music player in the BBS ad screen, but expecting 500K fast free in AmigaDos for OCS 1MB shows inexperience, so it would not be expected to run on it.

If the big datafile is the reason (I don't think it is), they could have saved a few hundred K in the release size since they left huge samples in it twice over (Gods title drum rythm etc). Maybe this points to a hidden part, since the music I hear is 1991-ish and unexciting. But rushed and no final version and not intended for OCS 1MB is more likely. And then ofc much more is possible than shown here.

The download link points to the HD-Fixed version of the demo. The original demo perfectly runs on 68000 machines from disk. I'll change the download links now and (re-add) the original version of the demo.
