My sound blaster suffered with this "demo?"

The last iGUANA's prod until now. As allways great design & code, and mixed with cool music that gives his unique style! iGUANA rulez forever!!! :)

I like Iguana demos. This has some cool effects, a raytracer and a really nice music. I love the colourfull transparent stuff at the end: It's magnificent!

The best iguana demo. Fantastic music by estrayk. Great rythm

The Demo.

pretty pretty music, and very fast cool effects

I have seen this demo a lots of times, and every time I love it more. Impressive effects, nice raytracer and good music

yeah, this demo roxx !!
btw, i think there's a mistake in the dates above : release date is july 1984 whereas party is euskal 96 ????

fantastic demo...

the source is available on th Jare's site:

lots of effects, few good ideas, zero design

Thumbs upppp!

My thumbs up! Iguana rules!

I had forgot to vote this awesome demo!

my vote

Also today a very enjoyable demo, I agree that it's probably the best Iguana release

fantastic demo, yet i never understood the rotating 3D lump of earth =)

i don't remeber the demo - but i'll give a thumbs of for creating such a big NFO-file!

I remember running it over and over again just to stare at the tunnel and twister effects :D
The raytracing scenes were waay boring though.

This demo impressed the hell out of me. Design is sorely lacking, indeed, but the fx are sweet.

Haven't watched the "real" demo yet (will do it in the near future on my DOS machine), but the video of it is cool. After the video I've seen the [Win32 port] - better graphics and sound. \o/
Awesome!

Some nice fx and an enjoyable music.

Very nice

What, no comment from me yet? Absolutely fantastic and one of my old favourites.

Pretty cool intro by iguana, maybe the soundtrack is a little too influenced by second reality?

Did I mention that this was the first demo I downloaded from Internet? It fit nicely on a floppy, and since we didn't have Internet access at home, I went to the library to get some new demos. I downloaded this plus a bunch of 64k intros.. must've been 1997 or something like that.

Now I feel old. But I still love the demo.

great

:)

I ported it to OSX so you can enjoy it in fullscreen on linux/osx/etc. http://adrianboeing.blogspot.com/2011/02/despaire-by-iguana-ported-to-mac-osx.html

classic oldskool pc demo :)

More attention could've been paid to the design and color departments. Some cool effects though, I've always liked plane deformations, and the raytracing(?) was interesting, but the real highlight was the feedback which when done right is always something I love. A decent production but lacking in areas I particularly value.

Great demo

great!

Coder pr0n for that time, but I like Heartquake more.
