Slow and buggy on my computer (ATI).

But I saw it on the stream, and I have to thumb up for the awesome subtitles! (would have been even better with some sync)

quite a concept! way too long loading time and quite a lot of implicit cast shader warnings - reading the glsl spec recommended... ;)

Loading is as slow as shit through a funnel.. Zik is nice & mixed properly, although the wubs could be a bit more dynamic. Interesting mix of pixeled and 3D gfx.

woot! thanks for the enjoyment \o/ cool gfx, zik and concept

Linux version coming in the following days to come :) LLB: actually, subtitles _are_ in sync :D

wub wub wuwuwuwub :D

Loading takes ages, but well - also I noticed it is running pretty slow on Win7x64, but super fast on WinXP.

Made a YT Capture for it:

I'm afraid the dubstep jokes poorly mask a below average demo.

Would be better if you’ve done something with the wubwub-text instead of plain overlay.

Decent is just about all I can say. I liked the second effect though.

Quite decent prod! I really like the pixel art, and the first scene. The music has a good melody but the wobbles aren't "deep" enough. Bravo!
rulez added on the 2012-09-02 16:08:02 by storm storm
Nice, and for once the hearing impaired people can have some dubstep...

Classic but nice effects, and the dubtitles were a funny addition.
rulez added on the 2012-09-02 16:52:09 by Tarmil Tarmil
oh boy, that pixelart looked so promising. :(

this is just a textbook case of misunderstanding or misuse of trends: dubstep will never get "better" JUST because of the wobble. it gets better when it's original. no offence but that sorry-ass wobble you had in there just screamed "i know this is part of the formula but i'm not exactly sure why." it didnt fit the song at all, and the fact that you tried to make fun of it implies that you KNEW that it doesn't fit but for some reason thought that's "the thing" to have.

remove that and the goofy subtitles and the demo is actually pretty decent, if somewhat uninvolving.
added on the 2012-09-02 17:01:19 by Gargaj Gargaj
really liked the music until the part with the silly subtitles started... that part destroys the whole demo (and music) for me. weak piggie.

good intro with pixeled charakters...
the rest is awful... even the music sucks...

Weak motivational thumb up for Nnorm who's making nice progress and for this new demogroup.
The effects are nice even if the demo looks more like a 4k with streamed music over.

nice little first prod from this newborn crew, and congrat for your first place.
btw, where did you take that idea of post-process? :D

Thumb up for the Dubstep Karaoke. We had a good laugh in the front row at Bünzli 2012! Thanks for that!

The Dubstep Karaoke is very funny :) Great demo
rulez added on the 2012-09-02 20:01:36 by vimja vimja
Never judge a prod by its screenshot.

Not a bad first release, but some ugly coder colours and it's all very cliched.

I'd much rather see more pixel animations.

I like it.

I like it too, especially the soundtrack. And it was funny watching this at the party.

Thumb down for the wub wub crap.
sucks added on the 2012-09-02 21:45:16 by SandLover SandLover
what garg said...
Yeah, gotta agree. That 'wub wub' joke wasn't funny at all and it pretty much ruined the demo. On the other hand, it's still a decent prod and I like the art with the girl, piggy it is.

Removing the wub wub (both in the subs and in the music) would turn that into a thumb up, but I'm not in a position to tell you how to do things :)

nice one!
rulez added on the 2012-09-03 08:38:24 by dimouse dimouse
The dubtitles WERE funny, but punchlines generally lose a bit when they're repeated for so long. You should have been more committed to the joke, and played it even more like one. I think what LLB means by 'sync' is that you should have highlighted each word as it was 'sung', would have made it even better :-)

Congrats on a pretty good prod!

Good.

Great logo/loading and great credits scene, the rest is a bit too much dejavu.

And yes the wub karaoke is fun, but feels too much like "the little joke added in the last minute" when it could have been a killer with more work.
rulez added on the 2012-09-03 12:10:22 by wullon wullon
Gargaj nails it, but for a first prod it's okay.
added on the 2012-09-03 13:00:29 by gloom gloom
What others said : the karaoke was a very good idea, but it lacks a few more hammer strokes on the nail to make it work fully. Like, adding the colored progress on the subtitles, the final score, and the visual were too disconnected from the music :)
Sorry, no. Just throwing all of the worst tropes together doesn't make a funny prod. Maybe next time. There are some nice aspects though, the art is pretty good.
sucks added on the 2012-09-03 13:23:15 by Claw Claw
Gloom wins. However, I will thumb it up because I liked the effects (even if they did not much go anywhere...)

i like all of you three, but this is about the demo, so i have to say, its all ok, but didnt catch me. i guess it worked pretty nice on a bigscreen tho ;)
i could weakly thumb this up, but i wont :p
Would have thumbed up if the karaoke idea had been done correctly. The demo itself is mehh.

Absolute LOL with the dubtitles!
Besides that, still nice effects and retro pixels :)

It was alright. There were some neat looking effects and some excellent art.

The music was so-so. The subtitles felt out of place.

From the video:
- Incoherent: old vs. new
- Subtitles (why?!)
- Syncing is there, but could be improved

piggie.
it so badly needed that karaoke ball, bouncing off the words!

Also like Revival said (and Gargaj to some extend), would have been better as a full spoof (of a deeply understood formula) rather than a mere joke-y part at the end - feels disconnected as it is.

I dig Lycan's pixel artwork and the idea with the subtitles is funny indeed, but otherwise, it's quite bland. Though somehow I can't resist giving a motivational thumb up, so here it is.

The karaoke was good idea but could've been executed way better. Nice visuals but nothing special, and a very cheesy tune (on purpose?) .. So a piggie it is.
