Wish this one had better music. The graphics are awesome but the music feels like a boring loop.
rulez added on the 2018-04-01 02:06:34 by gaspode gaspode
What? I loved the music. I thought it was rather great for this size of production. However I think they spent a lot of time showing us the same cubes just slightly different ways. So if the music was boring due to looping it was perhaps because there weren't enough different visuals to inspire new places for the music to go. :)

Beautiful in it's simplicity - both graphically and musically, although all the changing camera shots do get a bit too hectic near the end.

Exactly what it needs to be. Anyone complaining about the music must not understand, well, music. While you have displayed childish comnents on demos from before your time (understandable because of generations and whatnot), it's clear you fucking rule. Thanks for saving the compo and pushing out an outstanding product.

Visuals are intricate and beautiful to look at, but the music is not all that interesting to me. Something about that plane really hits me in a visually pleasing nerve, and while the intro is structurally a bit repetitive it ends just on the right note.

Will rewatch this many times and recommend to my friends. The style is perfect and the whole thing lends itself equally well both to a focused viewing and being a party background. The production is polished and the direction is confident enough to completely rid this demo of the feeling of compromise typical for a 4k. Just earlier this decade one could've passed it off as a full-size demo and win a compo with flying colors!

This was def. my party favourite! Really loved to whole picture and how it transcends the medium into something enjoyable for anyone while also being a super impressive 4k!

@Gargaj it resizes (but doesn't clear) the display & then takes several minutes of precalc for me, like.. 3 or 4.
rulez added on the 2018-04-06 22:52:58 by TropicalTrevor TropicalTrevor
Gargaj, TropicalTrevor: I measured before the party that it takes about 90 seconds to render the music (Oidos) on an i7-7700K. On my aging Intel E8500 it's about 3 minutes. I'd say those are about the range to except most current CPUs to fall between. Efforts were made to try to make Oidos run in its own thread but even letting the synth catch ahead a little bit (like up to 30 seconds, or even more) and then calling Oidos to start playing the buffer wouldn't work; the result was always just silence if you wouldn't let the entire precalc finish. Would be interested in knowing myself why this is tbh.

Thanks everyone for the comments of course <3. This was really just a test of a new path tracer implementation. Hope you get to see something more grand at some upcoming parties!

Okay so I watched it now again and all the things that I faintly remembered to be off during the compo came back crashing; the dodgy colors, the noisiness, the gimbal lock camera spin (noby, of all people, jeez!), and that it really runs out of ideas once the lines appear - the bit where the cubes stretch out feels like a desperate attempt to pad out time and it's not a particularly good looking one.

It's still a fantastic 4k, but kings are measured with the scale of kings, sorry :)

Makes my GTX 970 scream for mercy (maybe a 360/480p version could happen? :) but the overall design, polish, and music quality in 4k make it memorable.

Would be interested in knowing myself why this is tbh.

Oidos renders the music one track at a time. First it renders and mixes all tracks with reverb into one buffer, then it computes the reverb into a different buffer (so it can compute one echo at a time without them interfering with each other), then it renders and mixes the remaining tracks into the first buffer, and finally it combines the two buffers and converts the result into 16-bit integers for the actual replay buffer.

The motivation for structuring it this way is a combination of minimal code size and rendering each instrument/tone combination only once (to keep the precalc time from being even more horrendous).

My next synth will be rendering in one pass continuously from start to finish, I promise. :)

Yeah that makes sense, and it's pretty much what I suspected was the reason behind it. Thanks for the info :)

for me, this one, is the best in the compo
it has the full length, no 2 minutes or less of showing one effect.. yes it is one scene, but.. it is played well, ortho views, and sync with music.. of course some people would like to see something like Second Reality, but guys.. it is minimalistic, it is the style.. just remove all this details and you will see just four/eight cubes in path tracing. The music is very well done, some minor bugs which are hard to notice during the compo, i.e. hihats are too loud for me, but I noticed that only at home.

just watch it again and you will see:
1. the first scene is not cubes, it looks like 2d graphics
2. 0:31 then black and white scene where we can see how floor is mirroring.
3. 1:04 the strings instrument comes and we have colors
4. 1:22 you will notice the floor is different now
5. 1:35 we have new instrument and the camera movement is different plus we have some glitches in our ortho 3d ;)
6. 2:06 ussual 4k ends here... but we have cymbals and our ortho is not ortho anymore.. the glitches(b/w lines) parts look like 2d objects
7. 3:11 back to initial scene, bluring fading outing............

Thank you noby for such great intro! I am really want to see what you can do in 64k ;)

Great looks and the music is a perfect match for the visuals, especially considering the 4k limits. It is highly enjoyable to see for example well done chromatic aberrations and small details like the motion blur or specular and reflect variations done with style, and all this combined to quality hard cut camera work.

Keep on rocking!

Any chance of a non-realtime 4k60p capture of this?
added on the 2018-04-17 17:35:02 by xernobyl xernobyl
In theory yes. If someone has a 4K display they can create one with kkapture. Unfortunately I don't though. This intro uses the default windows OpenGL framebuffer for all render passes, which I don't think can exceed the display dimensions. Could be rewritten to be more robust of course (sacrificing the size limit) but I don't really feel like doing that right now.

If anyone wants to do that I can provide an exe. I should make a post-party release anyway since the exe show in the compo was accidentally too bright (the current youtube video is correct though).

@Magic: Not really. I provided some raytracing code and helped out fixing some stuff but noby did the vast majority of the work on this both visually and musically. By contast, noby did all of the music for Oscar's Chair, which provides a large portion of that demo's feeling.

I was supposed to write it long ago.. These chords are beautiful and make the intro full of emotions (it's somehow sad and melancholic, among others). The soundtrack is one of my favourite intro tunes (in the category of nostalgic, atmospheric tracks - no.1 in recent years).

I love how noby's intros are thoughtful / sensitive / reflective (even if I don't understand the choice of color scheme in this particular prod) and I am glad that I could see some of them on the big screen (where they make a huge impression, obviously).

Well.. thank you.

Sometimes a person makes artistic decisions to deal with technical limitations. Sometimes, however, I think a technically limited platform provides an artist the inspiration to express themselves more effectively. A full A-list demo might involve more assets, more code, more tech wow, but not get its point across so elegantly. This is *the* demo that stuck with me from 2018, even though my coup de coeur goes to Along For the Ride because I had to choose between them. And here to share some text I didn't get to share previously. Light passes across the face of the cube like days passing, while it remains locked in place. In its mind it struggles, it tries to fly, to escape. Then in the real world it transforms, or tries to transform. But movement remains impossible. Transformation remains impossible. It is trapped between two metal plates, nothing more than a cube, and nothing will ever change that. Say I read too much into it, then translate the title. And that is why art is amazing. Even if noby didn't intend this, I can take this away from this demo. As I saw the visual tricks creating an illusion of depth in Hedelmae's Snug (although more subjectively).

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment, metoikos, it really means a lot to me. I don't make these works for myself, other than as an outlet for self-growth and as validation in the sense of exploring my own capabilities. Other than that I create these for an audience, for anyone interested in lending and eye and an ear for a few minutes, and if I get one impression such as yours, I feel I've made it.

Artistic intent generally is at best dubious, often irrelevant, but by my account you hit the nail on the head with your thoughts. This demo started out with absolutely no plan at all. I had written a new much improved path tracer recently but my mind was bereft of any explicit visual I wanted to make. The development occurred just organically experimenting with cuboid-intersection functions and not much else. It wasn't until about a week before the party when I finished off a piece of music I was satisfied enough with to construct an intro around. I guess that's when I finally knew what I wanted to express through the visuals.

There is no explicit narrative going on, but themes such as Stillness, Discomfort, Longing, Detachment... Hope. Everything is in confined space, one that we can peer into but not out of; while the space is malleable, this fact remains. What begun as a simple test scene, eventually was something I started to feel compassion for. It's the same kind of feeling of futility or inability to break our own social or other confines. The mid section with the stripes that might just appear as an arbitrary visual is the most visible form of this entrapment. I experimented with more explicitly trying to find a way out, an escape, for the cuboids, but the idea felt naïve and obtuse, too simple. I decided to leave both the beginning and end open as well as tie into one another. I'm glad to hear this apparently came through well enough from the demo, but even if it didn't I appreciate your effort reading into it.

The title comes from the manga series Shōjo Shūmatsu Ryokō and more specifically one of its thematic keywords zetsubō* (ぜつぼう), a Japanese word which can be translated as "despair" or "hopelessness". The series one of the pieces of art and media that has resonated with me the most recently, especially during the creation of this demo, and it's the title of the demo where the overlap between the two felt to concentrate the most. The name is what this demo made me feel, that and hope.

As a bonus, if you go read and finish the above manga, there's at the very last page showing the main characters includes a wonderful coincidental visual (and in a way thematic) tie-in back to this demo; one that I funnily enough only discovered on my flight back from Revision 2018 during which I finished reading the series.

*(I'm still thinking of posthumously re-titling this with the more appropriate transliteration "Zetsubou"...)

Almost two years later I at last bring you the final version of this intro. I've been meaning to do this since the release, as the compo version by accident had the wrong brightness adjustment constant in it, making everything 30% brighter instead of dimmer, but applied before tonemapping so it wasn't quite so obvious. The screenshot and YouTube videos have always been at the correct brightness levels though. This along with many other tiny fixes (see info file) as well as a proper amount of resolutions warranted me to finally get this over with, thanks to maeln for the push as well.

Sincerely thank you to everyone who has enjoyed this again.

(Note that all the resolutions 1080p and over are more for future proofing. They require RTX level cards minimum (2070 and up, probably). Even though this intro obviously doesn't any such HW ray tracing features the new architecture copes much better with this intro.)

It's been 5 years, and I can't... actually think of any demo, intro, whatever that I like more?

Lately I bookmarked the youtube video of this on my phone, and I've been watching it before bed most nights to help me wind down and process my thoughts.

I hate to say "this is art" or some shit, but... right?

Anyway, thank you for putting this out there.
