great demo and cudos for including the source

Very good.
I wonder if it works on regular SatanDisk 'though.

Wow, the music is my favorite, creates so good atmosphere with grotesque images. And there are enough good effects already!

Dark and nice.

total lack of relation between the music the graphics and the code was really disapointing.

Not that the demo isn't good, but the thumb up from me is because of Evil taking the initiative of doing hard disk demos for plain STE. And using gajillions of RAM. And streaming music. People that are going to just watch it in steem or via a video capture should whine to the first brick wall they come across instead of here :P

like it!

this is ace :)
one tip for running on real hardware, on my setup it wouldn't run until ggn suggested ticking 'fast asci' in the hddriver settings, it now works perfectly :)
rulez added on the 2012-07-02 11:50:06 by spiny spiny
DHS rules it all once again :) Of course I love the dark style, awesome gfx, blasting fx and great soundtrack !
rulezcdc added on the 2012-07-02 14:31:18 by stsurvivor stsurvivor
A bit dark for me, but a GREAT demo nonetheless!
many thanks for including sources! :)
rulez added on the 2012-07-02 16:41:48 by baah baah
Some of the effects are really cool, and I liked the soundtrack too, but the design and flow could maybe be a bit better :)
rulez added on the 2012-07-02 17:31:39 by britelite britelite
I don't know what to say but WOW! Great soundtrack too, feels a bit like old Falcon demos but being STE it is even more WOW.
rulez added on the 2012-07-02 19:28:40 by simonsunnyboy simonsunnyboy
even comes with sourcecode!
rulez added on the 2012-07-02 19:47:09 by wysiwtf wysiwtf
I thought this was a Falcon demo at first :)

Generally I prefer floppy demos because I want to try it on a real STe, but maybe its time to move on.

Great work! Nice to see a few groups still going strong.

Nice surprise! I especially like the cube and the stars part - really fluent stuff! :-)
Like gwEm i would prefer a floppy version... but who cares. ;-)
rulez added on the 2012-07-02 21:56:39 by RA RA
awesome music and effects. with the fullscreen, the music has to be a sample sequence? or is it a sort of sample/mod hybrid?
rulez added on the 2012-07-02 22:56:09 by earx earx
ah, it's a stream.. i get it
added on the 2012-07-02 22:59:40 by earx earx
earx: it's a streaming soundtrack, with buffer refill between screens
added on the 2012-07-02 23:02:43 by evil evil
btw. a downloadlink for the soundtrack (in hq) would be c00l ;)

Nice. Btw source code link seems to be wrong

@evil, thanks for sharing that source code with us!

Totally made my day! Awesome stuff.
You really should give the oldskool compo at Assembly or at Revision a try. Miss those nice Atari prods there.
rulez added on the 2012-07-04 01:05:23 by tFt tFt
Quality music, gfx and design, top demo as always :)
rulez added on the 2012-07-04 07:18:54 by Tomchi Tomchi
starbuck:
Higher quality MP3 version of the soundtrack

tFt:
I rather support the few Atari parties that are still going.

And of course the demo is also on VideoDB

thanx evil =)

Just watched the video quickly.

Some nice effects.
The logo sucks. Really.
I hope the pictures are painted over and not straight scans/conversions.
Cool music.
Too bad the horizontal twister is so obviously scrolling horizontally, but yeah... not much you can do, it's "just" a plasma )
As usual the code looks SOLID!
rulez added on the 2012-07-04 13:44:21 by p01 p01
Efficients FX with high technical skills !
Hicolor pictures are maybe under exploited...
Atari parties roxxx !

Quite cool!
rulez added on the 2012-07-06 15:50:52 by Iapetus Iapetus
Fantastic! Is the twistbar background really a twistbar or a scrolled image?
rulez added on the 2012-07-06 16:01:12 by grip grip
yep nice one ;)
rulez added on the 2012-07-06 19:14:21 by ultra ultra
grip: Well, you could check the source code ;)
But this is an STE prod so I'm pretty sure this is basically a static plasma (image) displayed using the blitter. And the effect on top is only switching the video address for each scan line.
added on the 2012-07-06 22:16:17 by p01 p01
Very nice demo. Interesting effects as always. Dhs rules :)
rulez added on the 2012-07-06 23:51:13 by Zorro 2 Zorro 2
Decent. :)
added on the 2012-07-07 09:29:10 by AntDude AntDude
grip: It's updating one column each frame and scrolls over a ringbuffer. So it's not a static image, but not a "free" twist either.
added on the 2012-07-07 14:35:21 by evil evil
Good stuff.
rulez added on the 2012-07-08 03:28:21 by Claw Claw
p01: Well, if I knew 68k asm and STE hardware I might ;-P

evil: Interesting. So streaming music and streaming techniques for the visuals? Looks good - if it was candy I would eat it :)

Dark athmo & new original effects ! Amazing as usual ! Very good work !

wonderful "new" platform, i like the effects and flow of the prod!! Rulez! Evil rocks the house! Only downside: the pics were disturbingly dark for my lightsided mind.

rulez added on the 2012-07-10 13:41:27 by Frequent Frequent
has kind of an oldschool feel. i don't see any relation of the grotesque images and the overall feel of the demo. the music seems repetitive. impressive code for the platform though.

Great graphics and soundtrack! Not bad for 16 colors.

Another great demo by dhs!
Very Impressive fullscreen effect !
I like especially star vectors, twister with gouraud and bumpmaping.
Oh yeah ... Very good graphic design and wonderful music!
rulez added on the 2012-07-18 02:26:51 by Templeton Templeton
Great fullscreen demo. Thanks for supporting UltraSatans!

Runs perfect on STE and Mega STE... once the Fast ACSI option in HDDriver is enabled :-)

video looks great! wont run on USA STE or MSTE
rulez added on the 2012-07-20 22:05:10 by Official Ninja Official Ninja
I lied! I saw the comment about fast acsi, turned it on and it is running on my USA MSTE! great stuff.
For pushing new hardware. Nice demo, too.

Good to see a ultrasatan prod, I think it is not DHS's best effort though (feels a bit like recycling at parts). Anyway, a must thumb up for sure: great to watch effects specially in the first half and the cube part + demo soundtrack are excellent - streaming ftw
rulez added on the 2012-07-28 00:37:09 by fiveofive fiveofive
Some nice effects here and the visual impression isn't bad, but overall disjointed and directionless. I thought the music to be quite weak too.
