Best demo of the party. Flawless execution and soundtrack. Similar but much more polished than Unlit. The ending was just "woooah". Big respect for everybody who contributed.

Mega rulez (as expected :) Clear highlight of the party. GR8 stuff!

What JAC! Said.

Far and away the best of the party. Some great design and atmosphere on the Lynx

Looks and sounds great. Overall I find this a much more consistent experience than the previous NG demos (which also had moments of awesomeness).

Too bad it requires a specific SD cart and is 9 mb, making it more of a "custom hw thing" instead of a vanilla Lynx demo.

Very crazy thing for the Lynx, even if it uses more hardcore hardware to run it

Very cool atmosphere! Well done!

Nice tune, great gfx, but the pacing is a bit off. Anyway, rulez.

Great strong design, visuals and music.

Great design and music. Scenes are a bit long though.

I thought this was an Amiga demo.

Some nice gfx and scenes with just the right amount of ”mystery”, but the music was a bit too bland for my taste, and as others have pointed out, the pacing was a tad off.

Still worth a weak thumb.

For me: Best Lynx demo, Best NG Demo, Best Party Demo. Great atmosphere with very well matched msx, great original ideas - and this is most important for me. Thanks for whole Team and please keep your strong and positive spirit to infect also others with the same in these difficult times especialy for our local community. For sure it was worth Your effort! Hope to see all team members next time to congratulate directly and to ask many questions about the prod if time allows and also maybe to add some criticism from lame Lynx supporter to keep you sharp (like a Tiger :)) ;) Sorry for long msg. Cheers 🙂

Wow, wow, wow. So many great ideas, and so nice execution. The music plays a great role to build the atmosphere which makes all scenes go together as a whole. I can't wait for your next demo, guys ! Cheers too :)

Very well made but "too much of the same" for me, so I lost interest after a while.

Great production for 8 bit hardware, especially the streamed music, which in this demo builds the atmosphere of the demo :)

Great demo, watched it on youtube. I have a real Lynx too (the older and bigger model), but i dont own the hardware, that is needed, to let this demo run on it, sadly. I tried to watch it in different emulators, like for example Handy, but not possible, to run it there. Therefore my question - is there an emulator, that can run this file and if yes, which one?

Not a fan of the Polish color scheme and the music could use more punch, but I appreciate the theme and consistent style. Worth a thumb up.

nice visuals, except for the greetings part, those texts looked a bitt off for me, and maybe was a tad too long, but really impressive for lynx.

at least, you could have credited the music you used in the demo (unless zoltarx is asc & subwave):

It feels like some lowres modern video, maybe the blocky detail and antialiasing on it tricks me. Hopefully a lot of the things I see is realtime, or maybe a mix. But it's good overall.

Great prod!!

This demo is the highlight of the party to me. I particularly like ideas such as the rain at the beginning and the cyclope's laser scene at the end which I find very atmospheric. The depth of the various scenes is also very well executed. Consistent from start to finish. That’s a really great demo by NG. Very well done. Congrats guys.

Good use of new hardware and an unbelievable demo for the Lynx, awesome!
rulez added on the 2023-12-15 20:13:55 by evil evil
not a fan of the 'palette reduced in photoshop'-dithering on the graphics, but the concept and effects still kind of carries it. and yeah, the pacing is bad

Felix (search GitHub) can run this demo.

Not only at this party… this is one of the best demoscene thing I watched this year! Instant nominee for Meteoriks, when nominations are open

Very ambitious prod for the Lynx with a very unique atmosphere. It really stood out in the competitions. The (streamed?) music sounds incredible for the Lynx.
The 2D/3D mix looks great overall, obviously. The scene with the giant creature is particularly memorable. I agree though the greetings would have looked better with a single, more subdued font. The very colourful last screen (with the title) really looks off too...

I've been to the party sitting next to JAC! I knew then this was going to be great. My vote at the party was 10/10. It's even better watching it at home now. Sound was somewhat distorted at the party. Great job as I said at the party!

Fantastic competition entry on Lynx's. these are the things that make it worth putting all this effort into organizing events like Silly Venture. I think New Generation will surprise us more than once. Great people, great group, great productions. NG Rulez!

Music, gfx. overall atmosphere... considering it's all on Lynx = just wow!
rulez added on the 2023-12-19 19:57:45 by lesnik lesnik
A great example how artwork and direction can lift a demo immensely. Having the same lowpoly 3D meshes rotate around on a black screen would be really boring, but add some animated parallax layers and a story-ish, and it works great. The music doesn't hurt either. Some of the scenes stay for a tiny bit too long, but otherwise great stuff on a fairly uncommon platform (though what Korvkiosken said, of course).

A very nice production indeed. I'm also curious about the music issue.

Wow ... been a while since i been jawdropped by a demo regardless the platform. This is one fine piece of work. If this is what the Atari Lynx is capable off i defiinitely need to give the games a closer look. Somehow reminds me of the obsurest platform demos like Tere-rai or maybe on million light years from earth and all that on the most active retroplatform. Such a shame Atari got invaded by Jobs from the inside before it could reach peak levels
