- demo Amiga OCS/ECS Generation X by Binary
- Yeah, I don't agree with Photon here at all. It meets the requirements - it runs from disk on real hardware, it's delivered in ADF file format. There isn't even a limit of using just a single disk in the combo, is there?
So it isn't trying to circumvent any compo rules, it just doing something different and fun - that's what demos are all about, right? Respect for that.
I didn't even notice it was over 8 minutes, because there were SO MANY different scenes here! Good call to play it all, Charlie! - isokadded on the 2026-04-21 19:52:28

- Heh, I can't believe you were the one who asked me about that years ago. It WAS way too much effort, but it was worth it in the end. There are no plans for IV, though, I promise!
I hope you've got more coming in the future, though! - isokadded on the 2026-04-12 03:50:26
- 4k Amiga OCS/ECS 4 seasons by Binary
- This one is nice.
Voxel routine looks great, and has nice framerate. The 3x3 pixel pattern gives it a unique look. The roll looks very smooth for a 4x4 display, and I think that was a first on Amiga.
Add in solid music that fits the scene, a small intro part, logo and scroller, all in 4k - impressive. - rulezadded on the 2026-04-11 18:32:42

- So much amazing code in this demo!
I always love dot effect, and the 3d rotating dots are great. Not quite 7424 individual dots set each frame, though, right? I count 1856 per bitplane. But they do look like they have perspective correction, no symmetry (maybe 1 axis?), and are morphing, which makes it impressive. Dot tunnel is great, and I love the twisting rotzoomer.
I felt the demo was music and graphics didn't live up to the insanely high quality of the code, though. It was pretty solid, but IMO it didn't all fit together completely. I would have liked a more coherent art direction, consistent or complementary color schemes, and script effect changes timed to match music beats. I think that could have highlighted the effects further? Also, and any demo over 4k that uses system fonts feels lazy.
Still, this was a great production, that just feels a little rushed. - rulezadded on the 2026-04-07 09:06:10

- demo Amiga OCS/ECS Second Nature by Desire [web] & The Twitch Elite
- This was beautiful. There were giant showcase effects, like the tunnel, butterfly and waterdrop parts, which were very impressive. I was somehow even more impressed with the subtle effects like the partial image fading, bitplane scrolling tricks, and the fireflies though. And the soundtrack was amazing.
There were two technically stunning OCS demos in that compo, I'm not sure which one I prefer more - Binary's effects powerhouse or this one that mixes style and effects so well. - rulezadded on the 2026-04-06 19:18:30
- demo Amiga OCS/ECS HIGH SCORE
- I really liked this - the art, effects, and sound worked well together, giving me 90s Japanese shooter feeling :-) There weren't a lot of effects, but the ones there looked great and supported the theme. The text dissolving into the zooming display was great. It just felt highly polished and not rushed.

- Great to see something from you both again, Corial and Optima - a 3-year hiatus is too long!

- 64k Amiga OCS/ECS 64k-Silhouette by Oxygene [web]
- Technically excellent, as expected from Leonard. But also beautiful and atmospheric, especially the dot dissolves. Lovely work.

- demo Gameboy Advance Beyond the Pixels by Otomata Labs [web]
- This looks great. Well executed with lots of effects that take advantage of the subpixel trick.
