    -Very repetitive, more colors would be welcome, the music doesn't fit much
     with the noise concept.
    -Middle ground between epilepsy and grayscale stuff... hard to categorize.
    -Notes: Your ability to make "text mode look good" was limited by not using
     colour in your compo.
    -Some basic effects reused frequently, without any sync to the music. 
    -The rotating thingy looks nice.. too bad the rest has to be downright
     insulting.
    -Heh-meh.
    -Seizure-inducing.  The bad kind.

    -Some good colors and convertions, music is irritating,
     complete lack of structure or synchro.
    -Some kind of hypnotic charm, interactive controls,
     readable scroller yay! (good luck with the neighboors)
    -Colourful display of a "slide show" of stored images, without music.
     Does not exit.
    -With some work, bits might actually make a decent demo one of these
     days. Why do we need to press a key to see the next effect?
    -Had to use DOSBOX. No time-synching, had to guess a good cycle speed
     to run?! Well, it was still watchable.
    -If patient,you will realize there is more to this demo than red shadebobs.
     Unfortunately, the soundtrack will have you itching for the ESC key.

    -Nice feat of outputting image and sound in 256 bytes...
     ...but the end result is still boring.
    -not much to see, but 256b :D  alway fun to see 256b permutations do their
     thing!
    -256 Bytes; damn!  Mad respect for the size, and for killing my ears.
    -Shows the world map, in ascii, in 256 bytes executable. I don't know
     if that's a feat or not, but it's no demo..
    -Well... Would've been better contestant as 512- or 1024- byte intro with
     some movement and audio.
    -SPOILER: This is a 256-byte program which displays a cylindrical-style 
     map of earth in a single frame, suspiciously missing Antarctica. ;-)

    -clear fonts and some nice shading tricks, maybe lacks some effects,
     doesn't seem to be complete
    -clean & simple, nice music
    -Some subtle effects, put together in a pleasing way.
    -Nothing special.
    -Nice set of stuff from 90's.

    -nice stuff for the small size. I like how you play with different
     character maps, that's a good use of the medium.
    -different! cool color scheme (flying glowy orbs) & theme.  a tad short.
    -Outstanding work by a single individual.  Holy batman, loader bars!
    -Intro sequence could have looked sharper with the use of additional 
     ascii characters.
    -Some stuff that's pretty, some stuff that's new, but a bit disconnected.
    -Well-executed take on the textmode.
    -Interesting concepts, but fails to make text mode attractive.

    -that's some nice noise! simple effects but very good sync makes them 
     fun to watch, very good flow and structure in general as well.
     some clipping in red and green do not seem to be wanted, but are
     entertaining, could have been used more
    -nice FXs and flow, would have been (maybe?) really nice in full colors.
    -Like text mode went on a bender and took a byte out of my bad ass self.
    -Seriously arty technotrip.
    -Glitchy and noisy, but not overdoing it, so it was still quite nice.
    -A dark and disturbing experience.  In text mode.

    -Nice effects, but lacks design to keep interest. The rotation and lack
     of good visibility is headache-inducing at times
    -Cool ascii mapping choices (although a bit dark), 
     sync & evolving cube/whatever field.
    -Big Music! Best music of compo. Nice sync, pleasing effects that build
     over time. Wish it ended with a real kick to the ass,end a bit abruptly.
     Tip: Program could end when the song is finished (some effects loop and
     are subsequently displayed).
    -Nice effects, but the color use is unfortunately not up to par.
    -Heh, nice to see yet another different way to use the textmode to render
     stuff, like a stencil for the colors. Quite a fancy bunch of fx as well!
    -Loved everything about this one but the soundtrack.  Vibrant color scheme,
     refreshing use of a custom AA filter.

    -Very nice colors and shading! Cool music and trippy effects,
     very polished
    -Nice trippy colors & smooth FX
    -Some outstandingly nice effects, that do make text mode look - beautiful.
     Sync with text, could have been a bit tighter with the music, 
     but it was close. A real pleasure to watch.
    -Mindblowingly awesome colors!
    -The color gradients works pretty well with the blended layers, nice.
    -Cohesive style, beautiful use of color palette, pleasing effects,
     awesome fonts, and mellow beats.
     My personal favorite of TMDC 13, hands down.
