Bet it actually was a video from the start, and there isn't any real C64 demo. I mean come on, it was a little too good to be true.

I'd like to see it. It's beyond me how they keep squeezing the hardware like this.
What Hollowman said.

Hahaha Gargaj, stop being cruel to magic.

Hmm, I was thinking about making a video capture but the .d64 is really worth the wait. So please be a bit more patient, HCL is probably on it and will show up soon.

For those who will watch it for the first time in vice at home, it will probably just be a fantastic demo. At the party with the bigscreen and soundsystem, the enthuiastic crowd and the probably best line up of c64 demos in a single compo ever, it was a religious experience.

Gotto second this remark by Hollowman..

So the c64 guys have now their own debris/lifeforce "omg! I quit the scene!"-like moment. :)

I would have to add i've had a moment (like many people) like this when Dutch Breeze was released back in 1992, i even quite the scene for 1 year after that. And there've been more moments like this throughout history..

Looking at how this demo is being hyped at the moment, i seriously doubt it'll meet anyone's expectations. I have a feeling especially non-c64 sceners might have grown unrealistic expectations.
The demo mostly features coder-pron, super well-polished. And i have to add i wasn't shocked myself throughout the entire demo. Personally i feel this mostly tops a popular path in the scene, not groundbreaking in concept, direction or even design, but mostly perfecting their own style.

oK... so what's so special in these 2 minutes?

I wish I knew more about the C64 so that I can fully appreciate ( as in beyond the surface ) the big productions.

*stands up*

I'am the one who voted 7 on this demo, based on the youtube video.

Why i hear you all scream, well yes it's pure vicporn made for the big screen, dressed to impress, and that worked. But it is pure layering of effect upon effect. But in concept this demo kinda lacks everything. Sure it has nice graphics, brilliant code. But as one, it does not work as well as it could have worked.

I predict a lot of disappointment when released and folks are rewatching this in vice on or their breadbox at home because that misses the shine of the moment, the atmosphere of the X magic.

Nice, but not certainly not nicer then anyother vicporn demo i saw the past years and certainly not worth the perfect 10's that are handed out.


Apparently this is really getting out of hand now. Judging a demo based on 2 of 15 minutes? I think it is about time that the .D64 gets out.

Ok, latest news. The demo looks rather bugfree and HCL is aiming for a release tonight. Sorry about the delay, but we want to put out a finished product.
