- demo Amstrad Plus 3DManiaks2 by Impact
- It's great to see a first CPC Plus demo on Revision! Some effects are very good, like the voxel, the raycast dungeon, the mapped planet. I liked you trying to get some kind of concept and scripts. The "odyssey" kind of part towards the end was really promising. There's obviously a lot of work in this demo.
Now, allow me some constructive criticisms, which may explain why it only was ranked 5th on the competition... and why I personally didn't really enjoy the demo:
- Please Impact, you NEVER used any original song in the last two decades. How come?? There are many CPC musicians to compose for you. Plus, why don't you showcase the Plus possibilities with Zik's Soundtracker DMA? The music loops back BEFORE the demo is over!
- The 3D engine is, sadly, getting old, especially since Optimus last excellent demo. Perspective is not managed, clipping is clumsy (if you cannot manage clipping, then keep your objects away from the borders). The framerate increases when the shape is getting in the background, but the framerate gets too quick, which makes the rotation completely un-natural.
- The sprites are often ugly, with clipping badly managed once again, often out of place in the context. Fortunately, the backgrounds are great most of the time.
- Most colour shades are so 80's they should be forbidden.
- The greetings logos, sadly don't look good. The explosion effect isn't great...
- The end of the demo abruptly, which would have work with the music following the counter, but it doesn't, so the demo ends with a feeling of being rushed.
- Basically, too many things, but nothing polished enough, in my opinion.
I hope you won't get hurt by all these remarks. But I'd really like to see you win the first place next time! - isokadded on the 2025-04-22 22:21:49
- 4k Amstrad CPC Amstrad Plus 4deKades by Creative People for CPC
- Nice prod! I'm not too fond of the colours, but I'm sure Laurent Voulzy would be proud of the song :).
Too bad also for the song frame skip between each effects, but I guess a 4k doesn't always allow for perfection. - rulezadded on the 2025-04-22 21:57:07

- It think it's beautiful. I love those landscape demo, and doing it in 256 bytes is simply stunning. Congratulations!

- Very nice! Very well polished production. I especially liked the "wrong crtc" part with the 2 overlapping scrollers!

- game Amstrad CPC Hypernoid Zero by Bitplane Technomantes
- Very cool! I finished it on my second try :). Thanks for the message you shown at the Revision, it made me burst with laughter.
It is a fun game that maybe would have required a bit of more work to make it perfect. The learning curve is a bit too steep for most players. The graphics are very good and original, but lack sometimes a bit of readability. The second level seems unfinished, with empty screens leading to nothing but a (rather useful indeed) bonus. The music is fine, but I'm not fond of the shooting fx.
I feel the ship should have a little inertia to move in a more "realistic" way. Sorry, I'm very picky when it comes to games :).
All in all, a very good effort and an enjoyable game, well done! - rulezadded on the 2024-04-04 16:24:26

- demo Amstrad CPC Ghost NOP by Pulpo Corrosivo & Futurs [web]
- One of the best CPC demo! The graphics are original, so is the music, which is perfectly synced. As for the effects, they are very well done. I loved the Starstrike 2-like tunnel! The rhythm is also excellent. Nice to see Offset go back to demo, with an impressive effect. Congrats to the whole team!
