cool music!

Untypical and awesome music, great visuals with superb syncing and all around tiny details that pushed this to the top. I hope it wins!

Watching it again is a bit sobering. For the most part still enjoyable, but too long (the "point sprite city mirror part" should have been cut in half). Music is of the going-nowhere-yet-great kind. So yeah, piggy for now.

one of my favorites from the compo.
offers so much in both sound and visuals.

with some more pace and message to the audience this one should've been taking over the compo. good luck next time, guys!

Didn't mind the visuals too much actually (looked just like a random collection of motion graphics ideas :P, and the b/w dotty gibson scene was kinda anticlimactic) but the soundtrack rocks. As I said in the compo studio, Chiptune Jazz is one vastly underrepresented genre (also liked the SNESish feel of the samples which isnt heard too often either). :)
rulez added on the 2010-08-09 09:17:56 by kb_ kb_
Amazing music and fresh visuals.
Should have come much higher!

Super nice music by 4-mat!

After the first minute or so it went from awesome to boring. This could have been some much more.

LOVE SO MUCH <3

The winner of the compo (imho) !

And the music is fabulous (especially the nice "jazzy" endpart).

#ukscene rocks!

great design, but the rhythm and melody seemed to clash.
rulez added on the 2010-08-09 23:44:21 by phoenix phoenix
Great stuff. No 'stand out' effects, but a totally solid and well designed 64k. And the music.. the sound system sounds really great, and 4mat's tune does it plenty of justice :) Best 64k audio I've heard since.. maybe smash's last demo? It's on that level anyway.
rulez added on the 2010-08-10 11:16:57 by psonice psonice
great stuff. 4-mats music is a killer. but the colour-scheme wasn't exactly my thing.. also cool that you mentioned your references in the .nfo

Didn`t like the first half of the music, but the last half was awesome. Ok effects, but maybe to much of the same effects....
rulez added on the 2010-08-11 17:51:43 by Zplex Zplex
Hand drawn sprites, pre-recorded sound samples and jazzy music is what we really missed in modern intros. Thanks for a cup of oldskool!
And please, release the soundtrack (in tracker format, if possible)!

+1 for Awesome soundtrack (just picked up the XM, you rule 4-mat!)
+1 for graphics.

Final score: +3. Thumbs up, Soldier!

watched this 3 or 4 times now, really nice design with care and attention to the little things make it feel really polished. some of the colours are a bit garish in the first half but i love the second half of the demo alot, also the music is so nice and varied while still being coherent, should have placed way higher than 5th!

Typical Ate Bit style - which is refreshing - but too little content on screen that impresses me.

Very cool, for some reason black screen in fullscreen mode but ran fine in a window (w7x64ati5870). Great music, ends too suddenly.

Skilled people at work! I think the action fades out a little the last 40 seconds or so, but as a whole this is a bloody excellent intro! I don't at all get why such a strong production should only end up in 5th place. Anyway, I enjoy watching it and like the fact that your releases always stand out. So, well done guys!

When I was first watching the scene, UK productions were rare.

When I first tried to become actively involved in the scene, the UK scene was almost nonexistent.

And now... look at what there is! Ate Bit just continue to win. I look forward to the time soon when AB is challenging for the top spot in compos at the biggest demo parties on a regular basis. Thumb!

~yet another supplementary comment~

Not that I have a list made or something, but this prolly on of my favorite 64k intros ever. Solid visual consistency and super editing, all complemented by one of 4mats best tracks which is saying rather a lot. I like this much better than Transform from a year earlier.
