Very atmospheric. I think it would've been better without the taxis though..

Massive amounts of z-fightings on my setup. very promising nevertheless !

great, especially for a 3-day-job

I happen to love white blocks with soft shadows and or ambient occlusion and such, and this one does it quite well. Therefore, thump up.

i don't see the point of it unless it's some sort of test scene for AO but even then it shouldn't be released as a prod.

Great! And very realistic! A city with that many taxis would have no other population at all because of all the accidents!

The ambient occlusion could look better and I don't like the black on it.

I love everything with cities in it. Prefer the countryside though.

Ok, I'll stay tuned for the final version because this lacks demo.

nothing special... could be done in 4k. i wait for the final version.

me too.

Thank you for thumb up's!

The z-fighting on some gfx cards is a known problem, but it was already after the deadline when I noticed it on a different card (this was developed on Radeon HD 3650 and it worked fine). I'll try to rescale the geometry or make adjustments to zNear and zFar.

I see that some things should be sorted out; the compo was to code an effect, not a full demo or an intro. Even the music wasn't required at all. Compo theme was: "Crazy checkerboard" (any interpretation).

And yes, I'm aware that what you can see here could be done in 4kB. The question is, will it be possible to code the final version in 4kB? :)

flyby.
I second Preacher for the yellow cab.
I like this kind of black/grey/white rendering

Cool

nah. greeble-plugin and something that looks like baked ao.

How to make this 4k: You can do the scene with very few vertices. Store the buildings, size optimize your shader. That could work, but it won't be as easy as it looks :)

yeah, taxis are out of place, or out of colour here. even if you do it with coloured taxis, then maybe you should add some more coloured elements along the trip - ribbons or whatever. anyway, it has nice vibe in here.

Looks like average-designed 4k demo but takes 10 Mbytes of hard drive space. I do not thumb it down only because I like scy-scrapers.

Taxis dont fit at all. Rest of it is nice.

Nice looking city. Thumbs up for that. A bit empty scene. Maybe something in the background instead of black?
