Disjointed, felt a bit like two separate demos bolted together but lots of Checkpoint genius throughout, so one for the win!

Kick ass effect. The best in the competition.
i agree it was a bit disjointed, but on the other hand lots of lovely coder pr0n. it has to be a thumb! loved the 3D thunderdome wizard.
Mindblowing code, concept, music and finally graphics!
excellent!! i love this crazy ST prod!! perfect party demo on big screen!! mega gratz..
The demo is very good, music, effects rulz!
design is weak point, but there were many nice moments - like 3d wizard
..and please remove me from credits on this page - there was not my gfx
.. as far as I know

Great!!
Impressed.. really, super impressed. I did not expect seeing 3D Metaballs on ST!
this is just fantastic! that raymarching-scene and the 3d wizard <3
nice effects! the second part is solid :D
jok i fixed it now, hints about the cause is in fix me beautfull
Loved the 3d wizard a lot!
now that was awesome ♥
What rez said: The second part has some impressive moments :)
nice code but the music really isnt mine =)
From the first part, I only liked the morphing letters. The rest looked just not good, and the music was horrible. Still, this must have been a lot of work.
The second part was very good, although a bit more design wouldn't have hurt. ;-) Overall thumb up!

Just thumb, too complicated music at the first part :)
massive, tons of nice effects, enough for two different productions
ouch ! i can't wait more to test thursday on real hardware ! f---g wonderfull
yay Thunderdome Atari ST demo, born and raised on Thunderdome and started to like Atari ST a couple of years ago a perfect combo :)
hell yes!
Phat effect show. 3D-Metaballs on ST are crazy. Respect!
Very nice coderpr0n from checkpoint. I still think it feels like 2 prods merged into one tho, and the design could use a little touch up. Still, a great demo and a worthy winner. Texturemapping is crazy fast!
Coder pr0n as they say. ;)
Great effects but I think something more pleasant could have been done with them...
great!
Nice coder pron, design and soundtrack - sux
Unbelievable fast kick ass demo effects ! I was wondering if that was a Falcon demo :) (first soundtrack in not my taste, but audio compression is technically impressive)
Extremely impressive code - cannot believe it is just ST 1MB :)
nice, the hardcore version for jesus on e's ;)
That raymarching part looks awesome! Lots of other cool effects as well.
This can't and shouldn't be compared to Jesus on E's which is a plain no-code animplayer!

Waouh !! oO One more time Checkpoint does another big step in new school amazing effects on ATARI STf.
1st part has good techno vibes / atmosphear.
3D dots plane moving, text Morphing, anim, polygons, ... quite fine :)
2nd part is technically VERY amazing !
Ray marching, 3D Metaballs, 3D bumpmapping with 3D distorsion, 3D wizard, blending fx, ...
If each effect can run separately on a bare 520 Stf !! Respects !
Cool music especially 2nd one.
Several nice gfx.
I cannot imagine how much time you've spent on this !
With a little more design it would have even better. Question of time i can imagine.
GREAT work !

Some brutal FX in this prod ! Some designs & musax are not my cup of tea.
Moar of this please ! (just a little more polished)

If only Amiga ECS/OCS demos were this good lately. Defo thumbup.
o__O;
Cool stuff. more a fan of the 2nd part though but rocks imho.
I was not aware that C2P is now fast enough on ST ;) need to check that out.

+ impressive advanced effects (all that 3d stuff, etc.)
+ a lot of content
+ some nice gfx (although sometimes a bit inconsistent)
- unfortunately awful music (especially in the 1st part)
- in the first part the flow / action / synchro is too slow compared to the music
Summary, solid demo with strong code.

Didn't even know this was possible on ST! Thank you for keeping and evolving the highest standards of code - that's what the demoscene needs today!
I like all effects, specially the 3d at the second part :)
Exactly what Slayer said.
That was _REALLY_ massive !!! Thanx for another SV2k14 highlight, Lsl! :) Fantastic in every detail !
EFFECTS!
Massive coding!!! I love the 3D wizard...
I don't like the low quality of the soundtrack in the 1st part - its sooo noisy.

Ace!
I saw the Club X logo in the video loop, Therefore I approve.
Cool... I also redrawed the thunderdome logo on amiga ago years!
nice prod! :)
nice prod! :)
Part 2 has some nice technical stuff,the bumpmapped rubber vector is ace!
I liked the second part more but the first part did have some nice effects, the problem was that the first part was not very fluent. Overall this one had some killer effects.
Ruling effects show with some good design flow and too
Scary clown like It! So so demo!
Disjointed indeed... the music not really my cup of tea... but who cares? It totally rocks! Frikkin' amazing code!
\../
awesome
Did not like the music of the first part much, but the rest was truly amazing, great one :)
WTF !!!!! Ok Defjam, you won, I pledge allegiance...
second part kicked ass, indeed
Really great atari demo. You rulez
for the memories and some of the effects:
mayby ok, but i see: state of the arts, nine fingers and others old Amiga's demos.
this is 2014, not 1991. more creativity, please.

So go and make a demo about it ;-)
Your tools will be - Atari STFM, one megabyte, floppy drive. Enjoy!
untz-untz
how is this possible on ST??
and music is AWESOME!

1991 calling?
raymarching, marching cubes, complex 3d models(for Atari ST) even animated? :)

hehe... even though the oldskool hardcore tekkno stuff was never my cup of tea (not even 20 years ago) I liked the stuff that teased my eyes in here very much... wie war das mit Weltherrrrrschaft?! ;)
WOW!!!
Top notch code as usual.
(Didn't like the music in 1st part though...)

Have been watching it again. Damn, your 3d is cool! :D
Waiting for more!
Waiting for more!
Great code and nice effetcs, such a pity the musics are so lame and boring ! :/
I'm totally with RA on this one. The first part is rather mixed, the second part totally rocks!
Also, I'm not in Enydimion, honest:
It's definitely impressive for the most part. However I really think some effects should not be done on an ST. They are just too slow to be enjoyable.
I'm really happy Defjam asked me to take part to this great adventure even tho I mostly reworked TC gfx :) Another huge and ass kicking Checkpoint prod with huge balls !
Yes, plain st with 512 mem and without co-chips. The teknique of 130 poly textured wirzard is amazing, if you know that an ST is basically a frame buffer.
Impressive effects, crappy music in the 1st part, fantastic music in a 2nd part. Overall: great job!
TECHNO FORCE FUCK YOUR HORSE
very good colours all the way! cool effects & style
marching cubes ? that's neat
Nein, wirklich nicht!
Nope.
Amazing code.
Just not fond of the theme.

So cool !!!! Thanxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx !
yep
sound's a bit weak in the first part
nice effects
end 5 minutes of scroller / credits is too long imho

Logo ripping
you are such a f'n lamertroll..
Saw it on real hardware on a bigscreen this weekend. Holy motherfucking awesome!
Hats off my friends, the wizard and turntable scenes killed it all
Second part has some impressive effects, but the first part could be skipped completely, and then add some design to the last part. Too much code with too little wrapping.
Just wondering -- is it the first time metaballs were made on 68000-class machine like atari st or amiga 500?
The design and the incoherency with the music are not something good to remember, but the code sure is. So....
atari sucks.
good one... even if the music isn't my cup of tea ;)
I played a small role in this one :-) Thanks LSL/DefJam! Nice to see great new Atari ST demos, given that the Atari ST came out in 1985!
Alien - it was a pleasure to reverse your code :) .... ment as damn big compliment!
Pretty good if you like this kind of thing, music quality seems quite low bit, but i know nothing of the code or hardware here, but thumb for being a good atari rave demo :(
That was meant as a :) smiley btw, freudian keyboard slip :D

It's a good demo, but... well it lacks something in my opinion... Dunno.
Perhaps not my cup as for the music.

1st part: content thumb down, realization thumb up
2nd part: content thumb up (and a bit for the music), realization thumb down
In final it equals piggy.

Part 2 soundtrack is massive. FPS is low to look good.
Awesome!
Nice tech (goat cheese effect), nice music (the ym part); overall design and presentation leave a lot to be desired. A weak thumb it is!
technical merit
that's real shit !
Fun
