I really want to (ab)use exploders softsynth! - very nice intro, but a bit slow though.. even on my 060.
But please keep the intros coming, and to compose some music yourself.. or let me do it for you ;)

extremely impressive 64k, even though the soundtrack is a remake of a pretty well known trance-track. :)

stefan, of course this intro looks more completed and finished than FR's one and it should be 1st. Exploder shows a great progress.

Rendered dolphins always remind me of that Adiamus video. A bit too slow-paced (almost boring) but I liked it anyway. Beautiful and the music is impressive.

omg this music is bad, and the gfxs like logos too
boring scenes and ugly colors, sorry, not for me

should have been made on another plattform. anyway, it's great. superb soundquality and unbelievable 5.5 fps on my amiga 4060 ;)

...: the video has some bugs. could you reencode it please?

Christ man. Exploder is like the unsung hero of Amiga code. I can't believe you people give this guy a hard time.

I just saw it for the first time today, since i've had a piece of crap cpu in my miga. I am truly amazed by this ___64K___ intro!! Wtf wtf Exploder for president!

I'd like to see YOU pull this shit off on an Amiga dude! In die-hard assembly language. FFS give him some credit.
outrageous!

My dolphin wasn`t dreaming as this intro demands the trueaga.library. I don`t like intros that are only running with additional stuff, intros were originally supposed to run without anything else than the intro itself. If an intro can only be run with the help of libraries or fonts from outside, the byte limitation, here 64k, has totally lost its sense. Don`t you think so? As the person who has packed this intro together, forgot to include this library, there was no chance for me to watch it. Dream over!

well, that intro remember me on one of my first trance video clips : "dolphin's mind" - the flow (deep), played on wdr hit clip and viva music tv.


and the song is very popular in the trance music scene, and one of my all time favourites: veracocha -carte blanche

releases:
Dolphin's Mind - The Flow (Deep)
http://www.discogs.com/release/97010

Veracocha - Carte Blanche
http://www.discogs.com/release/28726

so, it is a superb relase, but i had only seen the mpg, cause i got no good amiga emulator...

I actually find it very boring. The softsynth rocks but I don't like the music. :) The rest of the code is nice but not that impressive.

What ghandy said; plus this intro runs too damn slow on real hardware. Apparently it was coded and tested exclusively on emulators.

Very nice prod!
rulez added on the 2012-09-22 10:14:54 by Sir_Lucas Sir_Lucas
This production is incredible. This is definitely one of the most UNDERRATED intros of all time. Comparing the synthesizers to the original song, it's an almost exact match. Including this whole 3d stuff. Yes I agree it might be a bit cheesy, but remember that it's only 40 (FORTY!!) KiloBytes. ON AN AMIGA AS WELL.

Incredible is not even remotely close to how incredible this intro really is.

This intro is written for 68060 and should be watched on 68060. On my 68040/40 it needs 7 minutes for precalc and then it runs 3 fps.

the technical feat here is obviously quite impressive, but design-wise... well, I'll just say I can smell the mediterranean sea water and MDMA-induced chemical sweat. I think I'll have to take a shower now

Cheese overload, but the good kind. Amazing synth and graphics for the platform and size. I really like the visual style, reminiscent of 80s offline computer graphics.

music is not my cup of tea but okish. the visuals on the other hand are meh. but 40k makes me pigg it.
Damn the sounds (not the tune) in 64K this "old"..
Its perfect cheese :)

Cheesiest 64k I can name. Still a classic.

I love this more and more every time I end up watching it. Someone please make a VHS rip of this if you have the equipment! This is so aesthetically coherent, and even unironically so.
added on the 2016-06-06 00:28:09 by noby noby
This is really fantastic. A 40Kb intro with a great soundtrack (the synth was very avanced for its time) with high color visuals that runs quite well on a 68040.

I don't care if it is cheese or not. :)

rulez added on the 2017-07-14 10:46:58 by natalia natalia
that was smooth
i keep coming back to this one, and still like it as one of the best 90s techno tributes around - especially with this remaked version of original music (Veracocha - Carte Blanche) and cyber dolphins video ;)

yes it might be a bit 'cheesy', but that is another aspect of the tribute that those that know the original feeling surely recognize :)

and it all came out 17 years ago (!), on Amiga (!!), and in 40k (!!!).

what else to say other than i'd be sad to learn that EXPLODER is not doing something interesting today, not only in the scene but on this planet...

Nicely fits the late 90s, and is really watchable.

Cool, but it works at reasonable speed in UAE only. It shutters even on overclocked 060/100mHz. So another fantasy "amiga" stuff.
added on the 2022-11-14 09:15:20 by kempy kempy
This was epic and still is !!! Shutters ? Stutters ? I have watched it many times on my 060 and i think it was fast, but needs rewatched to chech ..

Maybe partially its fast in lowered resolution 2x2 mode. In original mode, some scenes works so-so, but other are so slow. It's impossible to achieve eg constant speed like in linked video on real classic 68k amiga.

After so many years thanx to pistorm32 and Emu68 you can run this production if full resolution on your A1200 at over 33 fps :D Great stuff.
