Looked and sounded amazing on the stream!

Very nice. Can't wait to see the custom shaders on shadetoy. The looooong audio precalc was annoying to begin with, but after seeing it. It kind of adds to the suspense.

Not exactly my genre of music, but still hats of for that synth and the quality you're tearing out of it. Took almost 5 minutes to precalc the track though :). On the visual side I didn't get anything but a white screen...

Worth the wait.

Wow. Looked extremely cool on the stream. The soundtrack is kicking some ass!

I get sound, but only white screen. AMD R9 270X, Windows 7.

Wow. Very nice style. Cubes and spheres for the win!

Sounds rather nice, but I get a white screen. Waiting for some visuals in the form of a final/a capture. AMD RAdeon HD6800 Win7n 64bit.

damn that's the longest precalc since 2004! and it looks like an inque 64k :P

great soundtracks come with great precalcs. not that fond of the visuals.

looks nice but the music is ruined by wob wob wob. so piggie.
A final to fix the apparent ATI bugs will likely come in a couple weeks when I'm on vacation. In the meantime, here's the link to the aforementioned shadertoy project, where I made all of the effects originally :D

Holy precalc, Batman!
Cool

Long precalc is long. But for the visuals and music, hell yeah! I just wish there were some kind of gfx or text, but with anything under 64k that's the stuff that gets cut first.

loooong precalc, ultimately not much in there for me personally, piggie.

A gazillion high-quality shaders in a neat little package.

Wouldn't a precalc of this length would warrant a proper precalc bar at least? Say one that you can actually see in fullscreen mode? :D
added on the 2015-07-13 12:24:45 by BoyC BoyC
perhaps I'll address that in the final too ;D was done in quite a hurry (as usual)...

The visuals feel too calm and slow-moving for the aggressive soundtrack. Other than that, awesome show!
rulez added on the 2015-07-13 13:53:12 by Blueberry Blueberry
I've prepared a final which addresses a few things:
- HOPEFULLY fixes AMD compatibility issues. I would love if someone with an AMD card could test it before I make it the official link :)
- added loading bar
- fixed a potential audio sync issue
- fixed audio stopping too early at the end
- added more resolutions

File is here: logicoma-backscatter-final-test1.zip

Thanks for the feedback everyone :)

I have an AMD card, if you want to, I can try your intro as soon as I get to Slovakia

The high quality prod you would thing is 64K, would wish it could be 40K, when you realize it's only 36K! :) Nice pacing, nice GFX, nice sound track. Only complaint: no bytes left for a progress bar for the extras long pre-calc?

Good! Excellent synth, though I don't like the style of music at all.

I only see the "fake" loading bar in the console window...
Rendering the audio takes ages on a pretty old i7.

The typical discontinuity artifacts could be fixed, in case the are not intended.
Can also test on AMD. You know where to find me.

Awesome audio, nice and simple scenes.

well, at least it renders, but has a very weird artifacts, seen in here http://pasteboard.co/26zooNca.png . This was viewed on AMD R9 295X2 on fullhd resolution on a 4k screen

Well, it´s a 4k with TextureMaps as BumpMaps and ace lighting in 4k*10! ;)
Everything is fine here, ace!, just not my cup of intro, newskool-music+lotsa-post-effects-synced-to-instrumentX+raymarchingWithUVCoordCalc! (i did the same stuff years ago, just never released, because wouldn´t have fitted in 4k!)

But what really makes me wonder is the category you put it here on pouet:
40k -> was the compo-intro-size for Amiga-Intros (before 4Ks got invented)
64k -> was the compo-intro-size for PC-Intros at the same time...
...lateron Amiga-Intros adapted and got extra-space in form of 24k -> 64k aswell!
...but i never ever before saw a PC-Intro-Compo with 40k-Limit! :p Was this a special case at this party? Or is it just your right as wellknown Amiga&&PC-Group to do so?
I love Anacharchism, just wondering! ;) :D
Anyway, ace job, keep on flashing me! ;)

hardy: the compo was "Combined intro", and this particular intro happens to be 40k.

Also: it rocks :)

Impressive music! Visuals are very simple but nicely done. (maybe get rid of those discontinuity artifacts as mentioned by las)

I was always a bit torn about this one musically, the actual groove and composition is catchy as hell, but the production just feels too synthetic and thin, though the actual editing / automation work shows that there was a lot of effort invested in it.

Gave me just a white screen after the very long precalc so I had to watch the video. Some nice visuals and fitting music.
