• 64k MS-Dos Motion by The Zealots
• Cute. Basic effects (and shadebobs always bore me) but nice adlib and plays smoothly on 386sx.

• 64k MS-Dos Once - The Intro by LaSerDance
• Still fun music and some fake attempts at 3D which are funny. Like blob overlay on cube that's supposed to be phong, rotated animation of mask that distorts, weird interesting wolfenstein,. some things are weird meh but fun with adlib music.

• demo Amiga AGA when we ride on our enemies by Skarla
• Hehe, I never realized Essence became Skarla. I even see similar 3d objects reused from older demos :)

• demo Windows The nonstop Ibiza experience by orange
• I said then it was slow, now on 512x384 on computers at the time, with billenear filtered and blended effects, they did an effort compared to some random 320x240 soft demo in modern PCs. We could be doing HD soft rendering now.

• demo MS-Dos/gus x14 by orange
• Never was big fun of this scan-line fake mode in some demos. However I see that historically that must be the first one to do it? I do rewatch it and I see either scanline effects or lowres blocky, not liking the looks of it enough, however the music is good.

• demo Amiga AGA thuglife by Essence [web]
• That's my go to demo to prove more can be done on early 32bit. Like, from my understanding a 68030 is closer to 386. Plus the fact you have to do it with bitplanes in mind harder than VGA chunky pixel. And yet the size and shading of these 3d objects and scenes are more of a 486 class than anything you would ever believe to see in 386. That would be a good demo for 486 or Pentium 1.
  
  p.s. Sometimes I wake up and say "THUG LIFE man!!!" before coding for DOS PCs :)

• demo Wild Second Reality X16
• It's really cool port. Some of the parts look really close to the original and the audio is great. Only that voxel plasma parts is replaced by a very bad wavy sea sinus part.
  
  So, what's that hardware made off? How does it compare? Is there some GPU also helping with some parts, like that Vera mentioned?
