Suffers from "jumpy" direction, but a beautiful looking demo. I even got to run this in realtime on my 7800!

yep, definitely nice stuff here :) best demo from nvision i've seen so far.

so-so. i don't get the idea, too few scenes... not bad, in average

boring,

some really good scenes.
didn't like the city scene that much as it felt a bit empty. i like the music. overall too short, but still worth a thumb for sure.

Some good scenes, great music, although the last scene runs too long..

A masterpiece -- beautiful graphics and and an awesome soundtrack, typical Anadune style. I really don't get why it's so underrated.

it's not bad, but the last scene is a perfect metaphor for the entire demo - so here goes my lack of a rulez!

amazing soundtrack!

save the whale, use more cubes! very so-so
Why is this not getting respect? Awesome soundtrack, great visuals. One of my favorites from NVscene.

This had some really nice visuals and a really nice soundtrack - but the last scene killed it a bit I think (too uneventfull and too long)
thumb!

It's a bit disconnected but especially those orange scenes look rather nice! Great soundtrack from Chaser, too. A very solid production!

This one definitely has its moments but also a fair amount of cheesyness and irritating camera movements

nice, shiny, and alive. a bit disappointed that that it didn't show the cube-asphalt collision. and a bit jerky on a gtx280.

Maybe not the first gfx wise, but it has definatly the best soundtrack of all the demos in the compo.

some nice stuff in there, especially the music
rulez added on the 2008-08-30 21:09:52 by Bobic Bobic
I second Xiny... really good music from Chaser again... I don't get how the "whales-scene" should fit into the concept at all but I love it anyway :)

I agree this prod definately should have placed higher!
Nice viusals and cool flow

za zajebanie większości konceptów z naszego powstającego dema... duży zbieg okoliczności co ? że macie większość scenek i pomysłów takich jak my. Wystarczająco duży, zważywszy że akrylowi pokazałem dużo materiału i poprostu dopuścił się rippowania cudzego stuffu, ale w beznadziejnym wydaniu... tylko to nas różni.

kompletny brak oryginalności... nawet kadry w scenie miastem pokrywają się z moimi, tylko że moje miasto było o niebo lepsze jak i całość grafiki. Tak się nie robi, wykorzystać cudzy materiał tylko dlatego że chciałem to demo zrobić z tobą mr.acryl.

Fuckings. Wybrałeś co wybrałeś, czyli chujową jakość - bo dobrze wiesz kto zrobi to lepiej.

I tak nie scenuje już, bo nie mam na to czasu więc mam kompletnie w dupie co o mnie teraz powiecie

Well Anadune dudes, quite lame behavior from your side. If all that what wie8 said is ture (and it seems at least to be), all the thumb up should turn down. It is said the thing like that still happen.

At least you should have talked it over.

Sweet design on the logo part. Otherwise, not too impressive. Cubes, ribbons, dull soundtrack. No lasers on the whales' heads. Piggie.
added on the 2008-09-02 12:28:36 by break break
to wie8 (in polish, couse he begun this discussion): trudno mi w to uwierzyc z trzech powodow: 1. Mr. Acryl dal Ci narzedzia i pomagal w robieniu Angelic Forum. 2. Nie widzialem materialow ktore dostarczyles Acrylowi. 3. Gdyby na to patrzec w ten sposob jak Ty, mozna by napisac ze w Echoes pomsyly skopiowania z dziesiatek dem.
I jeszcze jedno: widzialem wyraz twarzy Acryla jak pokazal mi Twoj post i mam wrazenie ze najzwyczajniej w swiecie klamiesz.

added on the 2008-09-02 15:25:28 by ltk_tscc ltk_tscc
short - Wie8 told that Mr. Acryl have stolen his ideas for this demo. I just don't believe that, couse Mr. Acryl gave also some demo tools to wie8, when he was working on Angelic Forum.
added on the 2008-09-02 15:54:29 by V0yager V0yager
angelic forum nie ma tu nic do rzeczy, miałem narzędzia - współpracowaliśmy, potem nie miałem narzędzi... Ale rozmawiałem z akrylem o Fascination - demo robione przez asenses w składzie : masterm, wie8, slizgi, jammer, substrate.

Dobrze wiedział że my też mieliśmy brac udział w nvision gdyż dostaliśmy demo boxa.. jakoś w czerwcu pokazałem mu pare scrinów i mówił że dużo rzeczy jest zajebistych. Zresztą mam to w dupie, chcesz to ci pokaże setki scrinów i obrazków to uwierzysz. Dodatkowo slizgi, masterm, substrate mogą zabrać głos.
added on the 2008-09-03 01:00:51 by wie8 wie8
Więc tyle osób może potwierdzić fakt kopiowania... brzydze się zachowaniem akryla.
added on the 2008-09-03 01:01:52 by wie8 wie8
co mają toole do faktu że zajebali nasze koncepty... co ? Angelic forum w to nie mieszaj, to przeszłość - rok 2007, że niby miałem toola i co teraz go oskarżam ? Jaki to ma sens, weź się zastanów.


To była jednorazowa kooperacja. Potem proponowałem inną kooperację.

Jak pokazałem akrylowi sceny i powiedziałem że może sobie to wziąść, to zadał pytanie - dasz radę to oteksturować ? (gdybym odpowiedział tak - użyli by mojej grafiki zapewne). Powiedziałem nie.. to zrobili coś identycznego na własną rękę.

added on the 2008-09-03 01:11:23 by Stebo Stebo
Well to those that have seen our concept art it's pretty obvious that many ideas in Acryl's demo are very similar (colorscheme, spline-letters, city scene and so on...). Unfortunately they are not only "borrowed" but also badly executed. That's my 3 cents.

I think we don't need to make another scenedrama here. The rest of this discussion can go on priv.

And just to make things clear: We _don't_ use Acryl's demotools.

okay, since ubik didn't want to show these (can anyone can explain -- why!?): please, take a look at the pictures and judge by yourself.

http://asenses.untergrund.net/razor/16992.jpg (anadune logo seen at the opening scene)

http://asenses.untergrund.net/razor/ill_03.jpg (the approaching anadune sign is composed of the set of exactly three ribbons in quite a similar color scheme)

http://asenses.untergrund.net/razor/ill_13.jpg
http://asenses.untergrund.net/razor/ill_15.jpg (appallingly similar to the credits piece?)

http://asenses.untergrund.net/razor/AS-City.jpg
http://asenses.untergrund.net/razor/AS_Ending3_FINAL.jpg

they were shown by wie8 to mr. acryl on 8th of May, 2008 -- and anadune staff was well-aware of the fact we're taking part in nvision. I think the resemblace they bear is quite obvious, isn't it? have in mind that we're sharing some concept art that was to be veiled till the official release date -- and please do respect that.

and okay, I know there are elements alike in demos, and a good number of them shares similar concepts in some points and in some ways. but saying that wie8 is lying is just motherfucking for me. sorry, I can't stand watching while you guys are making a fool of him! what's more, he wanted fascination (i.e. the demo the concepts are 'ripped' from) to be a mutual project of asenses and anadune, respectively. but *while* he wasn't able to do his share of his job, and *after* mr. acryl said that "it's a pity" and that there were many interesting ideas shown in fascination, he just transmitted (or 'ripped' if you like) some of them to his own demo on his own. I can't simply believe it was a subconscious process at all.

so, in the light of this tangible evidence, it's just a fucking shame. it can be said that echoes are just a weak spin-off of what fascination once could be.

sorry, guys.
sucks added on the 2008-09-04 03:01:21 by skurwy skurwy
Sorry Skurwy - but I don't see any similarities - maybe my imagination suxx or maybe I don't want to take part in yours conspiracy theories.
And stop telling bullshit like "...didn't want to show..." - what could I show? I've got these pictures yesterdey from wie8 (I really dont know why he sent them to me - if he thinks that we have stolen his ideas)
So bellow compare what you wanna do (really?) and what we made (left side Allien, right Anadanune - let's fight):

BB Image

short description: first two scenes were inspired by Fairlight productions (main this one), city scene was my idea, credits was inspired by this picture

btw. who is the author of your pictures (excluding city scene)? I would like to say "great job". I hope that you guys don't try to appropriate yourself someone elses work. Or maybe this stuff is not yours? You just saw this somewhere and said "we reserve this! from now this is our stuff!" - if thats how it works, I reserve everything what can be found on www.images.google.com. Ufff what a stupid idea.

One more thing, what with Allien Asences demo for NVision? as I know that you guys got demobox from NV, so you should do something to support this party.

it's just another perspective, kid, no need to flare up! there are two points of view from that time on and I don't give a freaking shit which one you like better and which one you choose. it's your goddamn problem; I'm not saying you must blindly follow my own stance. what I couldn't allow, though, is to let that crap just slip away without any notice, you understand me?
