"And my boyfriend can make you desapear !"

when i first saw it at the party , i didn't liked it. but when i watched it again at home, it became one of my favourites...
nice soundtrack, nice design, although some screens don't fit together.

great tune, nice ideas. missing something but it's still a nice and long demo to watch.
added on the 2000-11-18 16:45:30 by psenough psenough
overall it's quite good, but somehow it's not ... "round" i think.
added on the 2000-11-23 18:49:24 by robotriot robotriot
Well the style is good, but personaly i just think the effects look all ... not good ;^)
But its worth a look.

A *superb* demo with very cool effects. Newskool!!!.This demo is really cool. Super MSX from Vic. I.M.H.O - the best sountrack from any demo yet. Super original effects. Nice gals. Smooth design. The edge of democomputing. 3State forever. I LOVE THIS !!! Sarix, Sagacity, Stevie, and Vic RULEZZZ
I liked it.. But I will need 128Mb of Ram to enjoy it.. :P

I liked very much the music. Worth fx to see are that tiled tunnels which creates a pic when it zooms out and that great translucent jelly fish moving on space!

Liked it most from the music I think..
added on the 2001-03-08 12:17:35 by Optimus Optimus
excellent design !!!
music is cool, very good effects but a lack of true gfxs
a good demo, a must see
I really like this demo. The music, the samples from Fiona Apple's MTV speach (actually, I think the Jeneane Garafolo track from Denis Leary's Lock `N Load)

  • everybody out there that's watching, everybody that's watching this world. (Pause)
  • This world is BULLSHIT
  • This point is I have done it.
  • I am lean.

That and the poem about colors and lines.
rulez added on the 2001-06-14 13:34:15 by aancsiid aancsiid
Yep those samples are from 'Lock 'n Load'.

Nice demo, although not everything works out the way it's supposed to be. (I'll admit I *love* the face-effect with the plasma-thingies though)

I still don't have 128MB Ram but I shall vote for that..

Optimus: If you download the final patch it should work without swapping on a 64mb system.

this demo was starting like a massive bomb, but it seems that it has been achieved *very* quickly. Deadline psychosis ? Too bad that the second middle of this prod makes think that the parts were just put together "as is".
Vote for the very nice style thought!

? TOO MUCH ARROGANCE ERROR

but thats the way their nfofiles always are.. this time it doesnt live up with demo.. soundtrack sounds like poor orbital rip-off and design doesnt stand out much. nor there are any innovative fx etc.. ok, it looks nice all in all but thats about it.

i guess for the time it was pretty good, tho the code is a little lacking on some sides. designwise it somehow works out, tho i'm not sure why. i've seen some of the ugliest textures around :)

Much effort behind it, but honestly, I don't like it. The music is plain annoying (worst vic tune in a demo ever imho) and for the most part it just leaves me cold.

A pretty nice software demo, not the best ever but quite above average. Some decent design, although I'm not so sure about the "lean is better" sample -- for some reason I felt it didn't fit. The swimming jellyfish-esque object was way nifty.

Not quite sure why I like this so much, the music is great and it has alot of interesting effects and ideas, but most of the scenes seem isolated from the rest and only the music seems to tie it together.
Nevertheless a masterpiece, wish you would have created more.

Wait—I didn't comment on this yet?

It's an influential piece of work for me. When I see a crosshair, my brain autocompletes 512.200. "kimberly: ten thousand dollar$" randomly pops up when I think about money. When I listen to Trump, "This world is bullshit" is sounding in my head. "Black and white and straight lines are my friends.", "Clean is better".

The music made this creep under my skin. There's something uniquely enigmatic to this as a whole. And it certainly stood the test of time for me. <3
