- initially a promising interpolation of the Das Boot theme that after the first minute or so sadly ends up staying on the general MIDI sound quality and completely ignores the "dramatic" action that's on screen
- no attention to detail - smokestack fumes underwater, console screen smoothscrolls text, you can see the edge of the water plane

i'm sure the response will be "but it's just for fun / you shouldnt take it seriously" but i don't buy that excuse.
As a self proclaimed färjan meme expert I would argue that it's likely you missing the details and not that the production would actually lack the attention to details. :)
The smokestack was a clear nudge to the earlier färjan productions that behave in same physically unrealistic manner. The models and textures had an impressive amount of somewhat obscure and not at all underlined details pointing to stuff in "färjanverse" and the actual ferry company.
As for other comments: yes, maybe the release could be fixed to take less disk space. I also agree that it was in some parts slightly longer than I would have liked it to be.
Overall this demo in all its details is quite a masterpiece in parody/satire category of demoscene demos. Great job Basscadet (and also lovely to notice that uncle-x, clearly a secret admirer of färjan saga, has apparently contributed to nearly all färjan cables.gl demos ever released)! - rulezadded on the 2023-08-27 19:19:51
