Thumbs up for one of the best invtros ever! Cool idea, engine, music and everything.

goddamn kickass invitation demo.

Because of this I just had to get to make wired98 inv, but on the other hand I knew I could never outrank this one.

skypher: It's listed in the demo hidden parts list (which I used to maintain) at http://www.inf.bme.hu/~mandula/secret.txt (figured that could use a plug :).

phred said it best. Still impressive even when I fired it up a couple months back.

that was a great one! the music, the movement, the scenario, the textures.. :O:O!!

One of the greatest pieces of code I'd ever seen at the time. To think that he did this in such a short time is simply marvelous! Statix rulez.

Excellent music, design and graphics too - and of course it was a fairly original.

Masterpiece.

runs under dosbox by using the /n option of the invitro.

yet another incredible statix production.

1997 - DAMN.

I still remember being impressed like fuck back then. Too bad the party didn't _really_ live up to that standard ;)

<3 to Acme. This was really different and I remember how much I liked it when I ran it.

Ha yes I remember that of course, nice interactive-wipeout-invit-demo :)

Best invite intro ever!

Seriously a jaw dropper and technically superb for it's time. This had RGB lighting was released inbetween Quake(greyscale lighting) and Unreal(RGB).. but unlike unreal it didn't require(or even use?) MMX!

I think it was partly this that made molyneux proclaim statix as the best coder in the industry in some interview. (the reporter thought he was talking about Carmack)

I remember when I started to code and saw this mindblowing invit.

This was really cool at the time, indeed. Didn't really feel like a proper invitation, but meh. The tech made up for it.
