... waiting for the win32 version :) ...
a beautiful piece of work but doesn't run correctly on certain scenes on my xbox, and I don't have an explanation why as of yet. Everyone would love atleast an AVI if not a win32 port.
Very, very nice feeling...
just ran it on a debug kit with attached to a rather very large sony TV. i'm not sure *what* it is that bugs, but i've seen it happening to certain games too. videosignal screwup..
but okay, the demo. well, it's uh.. the music is nice, i love the colors, but there's no action. alphablended/blurry 2d fractals won't cut it..

doesn't have the problem on a xdk/small sony tv btw.
Looked wonderful. I need an avi boys!
Doesn't even boot on my XBox (neither from HD nor from CD/RW). Would I need a debugkit?
Great stuff, probably my favorite in the demo compo. Complex suxx forever!
looked really confusing and cool on the bigscreen.
there will be even less action in the final version!
ps. it might take up to 5 minutes to boot party version on cdrw, if it even recognizes the disc...

somewhat cool, and the music rocks. there were some very long parts with "black screen(tm)" during the show though, seems like a bug but maybe it's supposed to be like that (xecuter2).
Hum, not one of the best Complex demos.
All I saw was some fractalzoomers.
I think it ended a bit too high in the compo.

Hmm, still won't boot (EvoX bios)
Though, the fractal zoomers were cool. They were NOT in "2d" since you could see that stuff was in front of other stuff when the camera moved etc. It was in 3d or atleast had some perspective stuff mangled into them (layers?)
Nice to see more demos on xbox :)
my favourite from the compo. fractals are just so _cool_...
Whoa. Rarely are fractals to be seen with THIS kind of beauty.
Codewise it's nothing really special (considering it was done with the XDK), but for the visual and soundtrack alone a thumb up.

the fractaldemo
beside the fact it's an xbox demo (i don't like xbox much) it was very well done! i guess the coders used the official XDK which would have been evil...
tried this from evox and from the xdk boot menu. didn't work.
Not my favorite. I'm still looking forward to an Xbox demo that demos the Xbox.
Be sure to watch it in a drunken stupor. :-)

Great. Just go and cut those stupid photo parts and voice samples in the music.
tomaes, the world war memoirs part is an absolute necessity.
true! special greetings to acumen ;) Firestorms tune has the necessary seriousness to the subject matter of fractals and boozing! Looks great in video. And Bukowski is a great poet.
Just booze and madness!
runs very fine on my xbox (after some time of loading that is).
a lot of fractals, but all look fine.
together with the music the demo nicely produces a mood.
i especially liked those bw slengpung pictures, retouched to produce an end-of-world atmosphere.

Great effect :)
hey-ho! it works flawlessly now, excellent excellent excellent! (especially the beginning..)
great music.
and cool fractal effect.

Watched the WMV. Looks fantastic. Can't wait to try it out on the Xbox.
beautiful.
.so. beautiful.
.so. beautiful.
great. but i think the photos were the weak part of the demo..
i was wrong. it's actually cool :)
what? another of my comments gone! well... anyway, I really like this and it's nice to see some new prods by jmagic. the favourite part is that really creamy fractal-zoom. it could have lasted for minutes imho!
stefan: i've been thinking about that too. in most parts it must be layers but there are some parts that feel really 3d (like the one in the screenshot)...
five thumbs up (and one in the ass) as jugi would have said ;)

gloom: yeah. i have the same problem about 50 % of the times i watch it. just reset and try again ;)
i like it a lot
rather boring.
the music! the demo!
Finally watched it on the xbox, and it looked fantastic.
as far as i can remember, i didn't like this at all :(
because you sux shadez..
I really enjoyed this one.
fantastic
I love it. Get the wmv at: http://www.komplex.org/~manko/complex-doomsday-xbox-demo-partyversion.wmv
I liked these effects and atmosphere. I does not work on my Debug Kit at the office. I'll have to watch it on a modded xbox to get a complete opinion about it ;)
schweeeeeeeeeeeeeet.
we
fractals :)
wanna watch it on a real machine.

It does not work on a real machine either, damn iso, I hope its not that. Please give an xbe and datas ;)
dead link, plz fix! =)
Pretty darn cool fractals in this one, though I have trouble determining the nature of some. Anyways, it's really atmospheric =)
Beautifull demo. Great colour combinations in farctal. I liked the music , though kinda repeative. A thumb up for the atmosphere
... and another one for the platform choice!!!
...
It was great
Hypnotic!
ok this prod absolutely kicks ass! best non commercial software on xbox to date!
i had no probs running this, didnt even bother burning the iso, just extracted the contents of the iso (soundtrack inside :-D ) using XDFSExtract and made a menu for demos on my Evo-X dashboard and it loaded and executed in around 10secs.
Superb prod with massive respect to Complex not only for this demo but for all they're doing for the xbox scene also.

also strange to note that the internal name given from the .xbe file for the demo in the evo-x launcher is RUINS, perhpas a working project title maybe?
also forgot to say the soundtrack rox aswell!

Proves that fractals aren't boring.
Refreshingly awesome.
ugh, 5 minutes of fractals? I mean, come on, even if they are beautiful fractals, building a demo on one routine is a no-no.
Oh, wait, there were also those spinning cubes. Great 3D graphics. On par with an 8 MHz Amiga500.

Best fractals ever!
Amazing! Excellent soundtrack, really kicked! I'm a sucker for these v/o things in the music. Really cool fractals.
incredible fractal, remember me the buddhabrot
couldn't watch the video since it was in some insane proprietary format that mplayer didn't understand.
anyway, building a demo on one routine is a big yes-yes.

i cannot downlad the video :(. link is broken...
yes, it would be cool to have an working link for the divX version, i want to see it! i looooved "complex" from bp04
boring shit.
there's a 25fps capture from demo competition in assembly 03 dvd.
50hz widescreen framebuffer capture will be out with the komplex anthology dvd.

wow
Its a bloddy universe populated by fractals.. looks surprisingly 3d compared to other fractal zoomers Ive seen. This rocked!
It is so beatiful
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
partly beautiful, partly boring
i agree with Preacher
YEEEESSSS!!! YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I so much would like to see this in realtime. Or atleast a non-sucky capture. Absolutely fantastic soundtrack and unbelievable visuals. All thumbs up.
This thing RULES! Wonderful soundtrack!
This was really nice, i'd like to see it running on real hardware sometime (or at least the dvd version.. whatever that will be :)
this just rules the shit out off all other pouet prods all together!
whoooo
a work of art
very cool
I've seen this on the real hardware now, and man! THIS IS TEH SHIT!
YES IT IS!
This is sooooo great!
fucking great fx
aaaand the music! oooooooooooooooh! i'm watching, no wait, i'm EXPERIENCING this over and over. its so fucking brilliant! i wish i had an xbox :/ hires vidcap anyone?
This was damn nice! Best xbox-demo I have seen. and one of the top demos! As earlier stated. Nice soundtrack, nice effects etc!
atmosphere, maybe a bit too long
Rockz!
Its nice, but I miss something real amazing and some variety.
Very nice.
fractalaganza! not enough thumbs on both my hands for this one ...
Lovely load of fractals!
Zoom with multiple maps or real-time computation? Guess it's the latter...

Nice.
a good fractal example, smooth, and breathtaking.!
brilliant !!!
I love fractals !
amazing

Someone with an xbox should really make a quality vidcap of this. Pleeeease? :)
no hope - just booze and madness.
Zoom, JMagic has promised to make one as soon as someone donates a modded XBox to him :)
broderick, this has several MINUTES of black screen ("loading time") on a real xbox, so i guess a lot of it is precomputed.
Great fractals.
break: oh great, i can make that promise too :D
Zoom: He has the sources and can make a framebuffer capture.
oh i see
great fractals neverless
yes
Very, very, very good. The first time I saw it I didn't think much of it, but it got better, and better, and it still does.
wow this rocks,
the mood that the second half is creating is fantastic!

Aaaaah trippy
A fractal demo done right.
.good!
out of this universe. it has such an excellent atmosphere.
there are repeated same effects. but i liked despite that. great fractals.
Absolutely Stunning!
fantastic fractals!
Advantage. Very nice. Almost like a Dream.
Really nice visuals, and a good soundtrack. Rulz.
excellent
Beautiful use of fractals!
Can someone do a windows port, or a higher quality video?

Fucking beautiful. Higher quality video would be nice.
Just watched the video version of this one and was amazed.
Nice
fractals
thats some funky fractals you got there bitches
I would love a Windows port of this.
good sfx
just booze and madness ... one of the best demos
do the hustle.
Lovely.
But someone grab a higher res video cap or send me a PAL xbox please. :)

Sadly I can't view it on an xbox since I don't have one but the youtube video looks awesome! Someone has a love for fractal patterns
X2!
I dont like it, but music saved it.
"The Secret of My Endurance"
(from Dangling In The Tourne)
by Charles Bukowski
I still get letters in the mail, mostly from cracked-up
men in tiny rooms with factory jobs or no jobs who are
living with whores or no woman at all, no hope, just
booze and madness.
Most of their letters are on lined paper
written with an unsharpened pencil
or in ink
in tiny handwriting that slants to the
left
and the paper is often torn
usually halfway up the middle
and they say they like my stuff,
I’ve written from where it’s at, and
they recognize that. truly, I’ve given them a second
chance, some recognition of where they’re at.
it’s true, I was there, worse off than most
of them.
but I wonder if they realize where their letters
arrive?
well, they are dropped into a box
behind a six-foot hedge with a long driveway leading
to a two car garage, rose garden, fruit trees,
animals, a beautiful woman, mortgage about half
paid after a year, a new car,
fireplace and a green rug two-inches thick
with a young boy to write my stuff now,
I keep him in a ten-foot cage with a
typewriter, feed him whiskey and raw whores,
belt him pretty good three or four times
a week.
I’m 59 years old now and the critics say
my stuff is getting better than ever.

Excellent demo! Waiting for the Mac port ;-P
Yep
simply rocks
solid
nice fractal show!
Why haven't i thumb this up yet?
I don't have a big hard on for fractals typically but this is a very very good show. Music in all its cheesiness helps.
yes
and what a fucking nice demo it is
<3 to gargaj for the perfect w32 port.
<3 to gargaj for the perfect w32 port.
Neat. And thank you for the win32 port
What a trip!
Some scenes like the photo cubes feel a bit out of place, but wow zoom zoom zoom :D
Thanks Gargaj! Worked perfectly fine in 1920x1080 on a 7950 on W7/64 <3

Awesome trip in proper quality!
Windows Port: Smoother and more High-res than the original!
Some of the best 2D fractals in any demo and lovely Bukowskian scenerpics and a nice track.
oh
well directed, thx for porting!
just WOW! and thanks for the w32 port!
Got an orginal Xbox of a friend, so tried it with this nice demo :)
Köszönöm Gargaj!
some nice fractals here and there, but didn't quite work as a whole imho.
oh yes <3
still looking good.
8> nowadays, this should be declared as a classic in early 2d->3d fractal aesthetics <3
so pretty
one of the best portraying of fractal effects in demoscene
boring crap
soundtrack itself deserves a thumb up. very atmospheric, even after years.
... watching this on a modded xbox was a blast back in these days. Nowadays this is still a decent demo with a killer soundtrack! Glöp!
fractals
I don't know how they did that.
Just watched it for the first time ever, and yeah well, I liked it very much!
Blast from the past.
Killer soundtrack.
