@xernobyl: I think you do not have win7/vista + dx10 card, am I right?
Nice atmosphere. It somehow reminded me another demo of yours. Actually these two demos don't have much in common including the platform but I think music and speed made them closer in my mind.
me likes :D
You're wrong, I have both.
Just noticed it only gives that error when I try running with antialiasing.
Greetings part is cool. I like the calm atmosphere of the intro. And you delivered the completed intro man. Congratulations.
Best 64kb of the year so far.
Really good 64k. I especially liked the comfomity and patterns of madness parts. Clean, stylish design and the music fits.
Gratz...
Gratz...
i am proud of that you dedicated this great demo to me. thanks nightlord.
i hope you continue on producing for pc scene ;)

GG nighty-lordy!.
loved it!
Quite good for a One-man show. Also consider it is from a country that demoscene is struggling.
one man show ! good work :)
Great show! And suprise: works fine on my old xps m1330! Original, simple, clean, fast. A total win.
Has some of the calming qualities found in older replay intros. And it is 64k. so thumb!
Cool greetings part. 64k!
nice first try, but a bit dull and bad quality sound ...
nice 64k. massive greetings part
I miss some transitions, but really nice overall.
okayish; not bad per se. But.
1) you should ask a musician to write music.
2) judging from the video, there is absolutely no possible reason why this should be vista/dx10 only.
3) a bit short, and a bit empty.

Hey, quite ok for a 1st prod on windows, a bit too short, colors could be also more stylish, music probably too basic... but effects are cool in an old fashion way!
@blabla, 2). Of course that could be done with dx9 but I'm also facing the same issue while developing stuff in dx this year : I just want to be able to move quickly to the dx11 DirectCompute API asap, and building a small framework on top of dx10 will ease the move to dx11, imho, there is at least a reason for using dx10 : prepare for moving to next gen dx11. And well, dx9 is quite old now... at some point, we'll need to move on... no?

^ I meant blala ;)
Just use OpenGL and there are no more problems ;)
Not bad for a first prod, but it sort of reminds me of what Replay-intros would be like if they didn't really care. ;) Keep going, and get a musician and some more contrast in your graphics.
Simple, but not bad.
Soothing and nice. Extra Props for DX10!
blala: there's a lot of smaller benefits of DX10 over DX9, like being able to combine multisampling and HDR in a sensible way.
Uhm, and by "smaller" I mean "smaller impact for the end-user, but massively important for the saneness of the coder".
made me think "replay meets traction", which is probably a good thing :D
very nice for a firsty (on pc that is).. I think you were the one which coded that very good 3d engine on c64 that is.. thanx for sharing that source (if i'm right)..
that thingy here makes somehow a timetravel in style.. which is.. a good thing..

What gloom said...but a little more nicely hehe :)
Sir Dancealot +1
s'alright
Cool, I like the greets
What gloom said indeed, minus Ferris' generic love for everything :P.
scenes felt and looked unfinished (horrible aliasing, visible end of world, no details) and the music sounded like it was a test track for softsynth. not too bad for a first (pc) prod though.
I liked the soundtrack. With cleaner visuals it would have been a good replay substitute.

Requires an OK dx10 card and Windows 7 or Vista.
Your employer will be happy about this ;)
very nice! good mood, cool style. a bit too short, though.
Nice!
video is really jerky !
i like the greetings-part !

Ugly and boring
like others said, that's a nice start, but the DX10 req is sad. Also, find youself a musician and boost your softsynth a bit (felt a bit too fm/sine-ish to my taste). And the fact that you chose to do a 64k as your first PC demo deserves a thumb up :D
Video please.
Vista/Win7 - DX10 req is very SAD.

Ouch sorry, there is a video ;)
Okay for a firsty.
The synth sounds like a bad 4k synth.

I really don't understand why using Windows Vista and DX10 sucks. Is everything going to be OK if XP and DX9 are used?
I can understand if you say "use software rendering, hardware rendering sucks" because they really require different disciplines.
I can also understand if you say "use Amiga, PC sucks" since Amiga can sometimes induce a nostalgic joy whereas the PC never had this kind of feel to it.
But I can find no meaning in "use DX9, DX10 sucks". In the end, they are both very similar libraries. The difference between DX9 and DX10 cannot even be compared to the difference between hardware and software rendering. I also don't remember establishing nostalgic links to DX9.0c.
In this case, why does it suck if a scener prefers to use a new library? Especially if he contributed to the development of this library (Nightlord is working on the DX team). Furthermore, how many people will there be left who still use DX9.0c a few years from now? How many people do we see who still use DX7.0 today?
The quality of a demo is determined by not the oldness of the operating system used, but the minimum configuration that is required to run it. Pattern of madness runs very well on average graphics cards (for example, on my 8600 gts). For me, this tells me more about the quality of the demo than whether it runs on XP or Vista.

dx10, thus no go...

have you video?
you from Turkey?

@mitchel: yes and yes :) a badly captured youtube video is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rh6-qBmtksA
worked for me.
This is a touch of perfection!
quite OK but stop selfvoting
i actually didn't know that self voting in Pouet was such a big deal. I don't self vote at parties or csdb. adding a comment forces you to vote here and i sincerely thought this is an ok product and thus thumbed it up. is there a way i can change it to piggy?
I've seen better.
nice mood. reminds me of millenium nuschool/replay/3state stuff which is good.
Soso and it wants Vista/W7's DirectX 10. :(
Maybe a little bit short, but really nice for a 64k - especially for the first pc demo. I like the greetings part most :D
ok prod
Nice but short.
nice mood - except for the font I like this one !
Nice, moody, catchy and effort worthy.
only 64 k! thumbs up!
only 64 k! thumbs up!
I wish it was longer.
Great one man show, nightlord!
nice mood, decent visuals, but ultimately too short for my taste
Nice !
good effects

ok cube effect, rest not worth a thumb.
DX10/11 are the way. Vista/7 WIN, XP/2K FAIL.
Good job dude! :D
Good job dude! :D
meh
Great demo in 64K. Congratulations Nightlord.
Niiiiiiiiiiiiiice.
w00tz !
selfvoting
Thumb up because two thumbs down for self voting is just way over reacting.
This is really not bad by the way. On down side, what pommak said, plus the text rendering was broken here, resulting in an interesting effect though.
great!
Text rendering bug going on here. Other than that, nice first prod.
Thumbs up for making a 64k as a first prod

if this prod is a fake, some info is false or the download link is broken,
do not post about it in the comments, it will get lost.
