Everything is good.
Actually 12k btw.

Excellent as well! Sorely missing some antialiasing though, and chord progression is a bit naivistic and doesn't exactly set any sort of appropriate mood here.

SUPER. Great ambience and lighting. Good climax with the particles. And a great soothing track!

wow, really fine production! extra kudos for the soundtrack, which is quite unconventional on a high production level and l for a small intro.

Great! Extra thumb for some non-standard camera moves.

There are no chord progressions here, only transpositions ;) Classic solution from detroit and house pieces ;)

top from the A to the R. nice to see that 16k on pc is not dead.

i know, that's what i meant but couldn't find the right words at that moment, like the general harmonic progression the track employs from halway on

i'm like 40% detroit! maybe it's just not the kind of detroit i listen to really?

the sound and instruments are excellent anyway! what synth is this made with?
added on the 2018-09-03 20:01:05 by noby noby
Yes! The soundtrack really fits the quite primitive visuals. I'm in love. Also, this really could have been so much more with even more attention to details and overall design - a shame you didn't go all the way :)
rulez added on the 2018-09-03 20:20:28 by maytz maytz
@all: Thanks for all comments! :)

@noby: I'd love to implement antialiasing as well, but couldn't think about good enough solution without turning everything upside down or hurting framerate too much. As for the synth, surprise: it's 4klang. And I really do love the Lesnik's soundtrack for not sounding like 4k at all. :)

@maytz: I'm still learning design and stuff, and with help of Leśnik I'm glad we got as far as we did. But I do hope to push it even further in future prods. :)

good one
rulez added on the 2018-09-03 22:11:13 by seppjo seppjo
@noby Thanks for your feedback. I can't disagree with you, the track is more than simple (including the progression). It was my first attempt to 4k intro music (well, 12k :) and it was the very first "test" tune made with 4klang. Lack of time + synth limitations = simple transposition of one chord (patch is 3x detuned oscillators) instead of simulating polyphony and doing it right.

I'm glad that I didn't have to use shaders to make the soundtrack (our first idea).

Anyway, the next one will be better. Btw. KK rules at what it does, just like you.
added on the 2018-09-03 22:58:43 by lesnik lesnik
lesnik: great job with the music in general! it's superb work for a first attempt with 4klang and really hides well all the bad quirks of the synth up to a point i wasn't sure at all if it was made with it (i had a strong suspicion though). overcoming the limitations regarding chords/polyphony is a bit tricky and unintuitive, but can be worked around! hope to hear more in the future =)

Cool scenes, especially the 90 degrees at-a-time rotating grid and the logo scene. Music fits to the intro quite well, but sync with visuals could be improved in many places.

I really like this one!
At 1:04 it reminds me beeple's BOX_BEAT
the music is made with 4klang and we have one more team which can create unique sounds, I really want to see the sources
and I wish you to have enough content for 64k and you have to try 64klang of course
