• demo MS-Dos Wild New Horizons by Otomata Labs [web]
• Quote:

  Very artistic and thanks for showing what this 1982(!) PC is capable of!

  
  Well, we target later generations with a 4096-color output and an EGC blitter. The first one that has those (PC-9801VX) is released in 1986.
  This is like if you're saying that a complex VGA demo is what an IBM XT is capable of 😆

• Does this mean we can bruteforce a winning MS-DOS intro now? It's only 2^64 different intros for a program to check if there's any screen activity 😄

  Oh, and come on. Using 3 musicians in a VCS prod - seriously? Just kidding, definitely my favorite prod of the party.

  
  
  We even got 5 musicians originally btw, including Abstract 64 who made a really good beeper tune for the ending. Sadly it was too complex and couldn't fit in the ROM...

• Music is so good for being in a 4k

• demo Atari Lynx Unbound by New Generation
• Congrats for winning! Very nice animations but sadly no thumbs for requiring a modern disk streaming solution that never existed back in the day. Also no PSG usage beyond being a PCM DAC for most of the time.

  I'm quite curious about the 420 color screen, I understand what the code is doing but I'm not sure what I'm _supposed_ to be seeing. Composite artifact colors? Time-dithered blurring?

  
  
  It's using a hardware bug/feature that if all rendering is off and VRAM port address points to the palette memory, it will display the color of that entry as a background color. This is why there's a big PPUADDR read slide during active display.
  
  This effect, combined with color emphasis, had been discovered and made into a full color palette demo almost two decades ago. But nothing more had been done to it until now.

• 40k demo NES/Famicom Mapperless by Otomata Labs [web]
• NTSC NES / Famicom only. As official PAL machines have different PPU timings and we have to cycle count until the last line of raster effects :)

• 32k Atari VCS Twin by All You Can Execute
• This is a remix of original music and (barely) visuals by Petriform https://youtu.be/C0vqrmRgfM8. It is mostly a showcase of our new software pitch engine that expands the original 32 different pitches into 7937!
  
  Also this was ranked 1st in music compo. It's here because I added visuals to the ROM later ^^;

• demo SNES/Super Famicom D-Zero by Desire [web]
• Good to finally see a SNES demo, let alone the one that won the compo!
