I personally consider this the "2nd Reality" of the C64 world, because it contained a remarkable combination of code, music, and gfx for the time, and helped the scene open up to the "trackmo" concept.

If you're wondering about the release date vs. the party year, yes, the final version was released a year late.

An old c64 classic and one of the first real trackmos on this machine.

We had a small meeting with The Obsessed Maniacs just at the time TP3 was held. It was great fun, and i wouldn't have missed it in any case, but a few days later, I got the disk with this demo from one of my contacts, watched it and thought "F*CK, why weren't we at TP, goddamnit"... I can only emphasize what phoenix has said, and this ws the reason why i was discouraged from demo coding for half a year and decided to make a trackmo of our to-be-released multipart demo later. Get this one.

a great demo.. great fx ,great gfx and a great soundtrack too.
This is the 100% version but i liked more the partyversion even if it contained some bugs..
Thumbs up for Slamer and the rest of Camelot.

I have the slight feeling that I have commented for this before. I have the same feeling for other pouet releases too. Perhaps I am glopping in my sleep???

Amazing hand drawn GFX, solid effects, good design, fine music.

This demo was probably a ass kicker for people who still had a C64 and showing this to Amiga Users. =D

Never liked the music, but the demo...
rulez added on the 2005-12-29 13:01:48 by Midfit Midfit
the 93% version is cooler than this one, music-wise.. :D great demos anyways, both of them.
rulez added on the 2005-12-29 22:08:15 by Krill Krill
Wow, totally cool! Thanks for the suggestion to watch this, Midfit. There are no parts I don't like here which is very seldom! The music was not bad in the beginning but towards the end it got annoying. Endpart tune is nice again. Great demo!

Krill: The 93% version was a 92% one from 1993? ;) Or did I miss it?

92% version ftw. A lot of vectors, but I guess on C64 that's actually OK
rulez added on the 2020-05-05 22:15:31 by Nosferatu Nosferatu
An absolute all time classic and one of my favourite demos ever. And there was actually a proper 100% version as well!
