For the tune and great HAM code.
Let's SAUNA now in the Finnish (and NOT French) way.

Beautiful and colourful visuals with HAM on plain A500, with great tracks to boot. And that HAM kaleidoscope blows away high-end AGA prods easily, like a certain recent one that I won't mention ;)

Platon42 is a coding GENIUS on Amigaaaaaa!

Beautiful! One of those demos that lets you stare mesmerized at the
screen and where you are full of anticipated joy and excitement what
effect will be next. Thanks a lot for the magical show and this more
than worthy sequel of HAM Eager.

That is a true HAM-onstration of the Amiga's capabilities! The way it showcased the HAM mode was simply hamtastic

Very nice demo indeed. Great music, entertaining puns, good graphics and some nice effects which exploit the HAM mode. Interesting low-level code ("the things you don't see" as Platon wrote in the end scroller) as well.

HAM Eager had its quirky charms, but paired with a great artist and musician, your work looks and sounds really high quality and a bit less, eh, hamateur. :) Hopefully this will finally motivate others to try more HAM effects.

Truly hamazing! Very good graphics and design, the music fits perfectly and these ham effects open new doors in Amiga OCS, something that is really welcome for a platform where it seemed like everything had been done.
Oh, and thanks for the nod! :D

rulez added on the 2023-05-09 10:47:03 by Preacher Preacher
can only evaluate this as a casual enjoyer, and in that sense this felt just ok to me. i don't really know what's going on here technically, but it looks like a very average and typical ECS demo to me. i'm mainly still missing more work on the design side, like better use of color and overlay graphics, and more care in little details like the seams in the kaleidoscope effect. the use of digital photographs also still doesn't look good at all imo, no matter how many HAM colors there are. certainly an improvement on the earlier HAM Eager and a good effort in general, but still not there yet.

rulez added on the 2023-05-19 03:17:40 by raer raer
The main problem here is that this production does not even attempt to stand on its own feet. Polished to perfection and beyond, it positions itself and falls flat artistically as Ham Eager Part II.
Most of the independent, free-roaming spirit of Ham Eager is lost in this work, while it still functions as a technical show-off and ha-ha-ham pun generator, albeit with unexciting aesthetics, presentation and music.
added on the 2023-05-22 07:27:52 by bifat bifat
Beautiful visuals neatly synchronized with the music! Top that with some neat graphics and you have a winner! Great!
rulez added on the 2023-05-22 18:09:00 by Daniel Daniel
@Bifat are you serious? Is your tunnelvision blinding you? (you can only see it when you realize it) And did you forgot your thumb?
added on the 2023-05-22 19:19:40 by magic magic
I kind of agree with Bifat. The prod is great tech-wise, very polished but it lacks the wilderness of Eager Ham and in this sense fails to be its successor. Anyway here is my thumb :)
rulez added on the 2023-05-23 06:23:02 by ok3anos ok3anos
This is an OCS milestone imho.
Thanks Platon42 for the technical write-up. It takes will to write an explanation after this amount of heavy work.

Man, just watched it. This is absolutely brainblasting. I'm not an Amiga guy and I had no idea HAM could be used at this extent. Much much respect for the wizard coder wizard behind this masterpiece (Platon42). And music and grafix are also top notch. That's definitely a top release by Desire. Congrats guys.
rulez added on the 2023-09-15 11:45:01 by RATI^OVR RATI^OVR
180p-ish unnecessary for some effects it feels, AA lines shown for a split second. Show off, I want to see!

Improved HAMphrey (we should talk!) looks good, as do HAM transitions. Other images looked less good, but the "boom RGB primary color parrot/woman in scarf baby" was reigned in (perhaps not appreciated by fans of traditional HAM slideshows, but by me.)

Grats on a worthy sequel! This alone is very hard to achieve.
