poor little guy :(
Love it to pieces! I was getting serious Bagiński vibes all over the place and I've missed animated story flybys a lot...
what Preacher said! Fantastic storydemo.
Cool stuff, and cool Gargaj BASS!
What everyone else said. :)
Nice direction with some clever camera angles, and wonderful atmosphere set by the movie-like soundtrack. The genre was also wholly unexpected, which is why I like it even more. Congrats guys!
kifejezetten kurvajó!
Hamm!
I got a Signal Lost message, before the action started. Is it normal?
I guess this was the one in the compo with a huge amount of work (i mean, even more than ours :)
Ah, the demoscene needs more storydemos <3 Love the atmosphere, and it would definitely be a nice intro to a game! Which I would love to play, ofc :)
What zoom said. Well done.
nice direction. But need more work on texturing/lighting. Look a bit outdated
this has some serious cinematics. totally worked for me!
UDS error occurred :(
Great stuff. Long time since I saw a good "story demo".
We want a prequel ;)
@ntsc_
Thanks for the crits :) I will practice more texturing. Lights were placed by gargaj, and I liked them, given the short time he had to put stuff into the engine.

This was great!
Oh nice! Awesome atmosphere due to the music and visuals.
Flyby... are good for you.
Please take time to polish you Textures :) proper UW would not hurt

nice. just bad to make me wait for the outro and the äctiön. ♪♫♪
really funny
video please
okay, it was mostly nice but a tad too flyby and slow for my taste.
Takes a while to go going, but pretty damn good when it does.
amazing storytelling, indeed screams narrative all over. :)
Very impressive for just two people. Great musical score. It's Conspiracy-quality, but I guess it'd need more people involved to qualify as such. :) Reminded me of The Fulcrum a little.
LOL, flubber's evil brother. oh well, enjoyable to watch. pace was on the slow side, but acceptable :)
Nice one, though it leaves me with more questions than answers, prequel or sequel would be thumbed up as well.
Music sets the mood and atmosphere nicely, found the cave scenes a bit too bright to be scary, however when that bins fell down I was as scared as that drone. Ending was splendid, loved when the music got even more furious there <3
One thing though, why do the doors look like Gargajs avatar?

It seems I really have to practice texturing :)
Thanks for the thümbs and the crits guys!

Great atmosphere and direction.
Epic! :)
Me Like!☺
story
Awesome demo! :D
Really cool! :)
Fuck yeah, this has it all, great modelling, artwork and design, great programming (especially liked the shadows), atmosphere and a soundtrack that adds a lot to it! Love it.
what gargaj made
Gargaj at Hollywood :')
Nice
Yes
To be continued...
Sometimes I miss those old storydemos even if not overall. This wasn't amazing, also not much happening, but visuals were fairly good and concept interesting.
\o/
Awsome !
it's great.
some random sensoric data from inside the probe would've been awesome in some scenes. SDS style alike.
cries for a sequel btw. :)

I saw it twice. i find the first part until just before we see the humans a bit too long. Apart from that, it's a polished, well synch, very good prod as the others said. I'am gonna invite friends to watch it with me ;).
Soso, but its ending reminded me of Terminator movies. :D
quick notes:
- definitively no prequel/sequel/etc planned. first, i think it doesnt need one, the story has a beginning/middle/end and doesnt need anything else. second, i dont like franchising and much rather do new things. that said, if you wanna do it, the ip is up for grabs for the right price. *cough*
- first person hud shots were in the script originally but were never tried because i thought they'd feel to gimmicky especially towards the end.
- wasnt aiming for terminator, but i admit it did turn out that way :D
- those bloody doors. wasnt really deliberate, they were supposed to have 4 bolts on one side and none on the other, but the blender export shuffled them up and when i rebuilt them, it just made more sense to have 2-2 each. the pareidolia didn't even strike me until i was editing.

Thumbs up to om-nom doors. Generally the demo could benefit from better graphics in many places. Good job on the soundscape, except the white noise sound effect :D
actually all the audio was done in one afternoon/night :D
great visuals and really nice atmosphere
Movie!
Nice! Like the soundscape too. Visuals could be a bit more realistic/darker in the cave scenes. The lighting in the first room is wrong somehow (e.g. table that lies on its side).
The low? shadow map resolution also shows sometimes.
Why not make a final?

jóóóó! i'm looking forward to see more from betasector
interesting atmosphere - tetszik!
Congratulation, the demo of tomorrow ;)

damn! Brilliant and creepy in a decidedly "Impossible:mission" kind of way :)
It's a bit disheartening to see how good work can be marred by tiny details (aliasing and shadows). Some parts are uneven, but the overall works.
Nice sound, modelling and camera-work! Some ugly texturing here and there though... Still rules a lot!
Joepie! Nice one!
Thumb up for trying to create an atmosphere, going with a concept, and using using 3d sculptures (i.e. good models). Overall, I felt it kind of missed the mark, but effort counts for something. Music is pretty cool too, though I could do without the synth lead and ambience throughout. Like 2:22 or whatever it's called.
What, so in your demo evil wins? That's so outdated... :)
I don't know whether this is my graphic card or not, but i feel like it seriously misses lights, reflections and all this stuff. And the textures were poor. As said, maybe it's my graphic card. Nvidia GTS 250. It still deserves a thumb.
Nice to watch on my GTS 420 (youtube)
what msqrt said
.
Nice atmosphere! I expected the daft punks to come to live and play something cool though.
nice try... second part looks uber suboptimal, fps drop, despite lowering res and all... (7900gts 512)
Nice one!
a bit flat gfx but altogether nice
Love the models and details, like when the probe is scared and then exhales when it realizes theres no threat, also the ending rocks pretty good :)
I think the detail is a little inconsistent - the caves are great, but the indoor 'lab' area seems a bit too flat. I like the modelling on the whole, and I really like the concept and atmosphere.
Nice - especially the music!
Looks pretty much like one of those 90s-rendervids, but the story about this flaying vacuum cleaner-like thing builds up quite well
Great atmosphere, but what Zavie said - jagged shadows are dragging the immersion down.
nice show! against all odds I enjoyed a bit of storydemo again. I miss a little bit of postprocessing or atmospheric effects.. More shadow, glow, dof, fog/gas, lightcones, dust in the air, bad surveilance cameras from the future and so on. The character models look great and the action is quite captivating. It made me think about some outer space medusa or something.
awesome!
Hey Gargaj! Great production!
I liked the part where the droid comes in front of this bomb looking model which for sure I was thinking it was going to explode, but then something in the back fall over! I was shocked!
And especially I liked the sound during that scene, really nice melody and bass sound! wow!
And then I noticed you guys have greeted us back! And is (if iI'm not mistaken) the first one greeting us!
Thanks a lot!!
I hope to see you at Revision!!

*fell over
Liked it, but a few more textures would have been nice. Also: "Fly By, Nothing ever moves!" ;)
Liked this - nice concept and entertaining!
A real nice one!
yes!
Great!
Even though the music isn't bad at all, the rest really is.
Maybe this demo would deserve a shorter version, cut down to 4 or 3 minutes ?
No matter what, I love the setting at 3:25!!!
Thumb up for the storyline :)

nice direction and sound, liked the atmosphere and narrative qualities of this one. visually it was less interesting unfortunately, models and texturing seemed kind of lo-fi and some scenes felt a bit empty (geometry-wise)
remember this one. very good one, so thumb up !
epic! loved the tune, the gfx andthe modelling... may favourite scene was the 'running around a circle, michaelangelo style'. great stuff!
Probably the first umlaut demo that has some feel of adventure.
A demo with a nicely directed story, beautiful scenes and a cool soundtrack.
