100% awesome

Really smooth show with great graphics, music and code!

Does interlaced here mean 320x512 resolution?

My favorite from the compo. Great work. Also, what rloaderro asked.

Loady, Yes with 2:1 widescreen the viewport resolution is 320x320.

What a great stuff, Lauri, you rock! Thank you.

+ opening palette pulsing synced to LFO
+ majestically rotating galaxy with this delicious space age music!
+ good sync that doesn't feel forced
+ the stunning final scene!
+ some musical repetitions are bound up with certain scenes and that's very cool, it's clear that someone put some thought into this
+ fitting and well produced soundtrack
+ awesome choice of palettes!!!
- I feel the demo doesn't go anywhere, it's just a bunch of more or less random scenes
- the organ theme from intro section repeats later, but there's no visual connection between these two parts
- a bit too much 3D stuff for my taste
- typography from credits part

Awesome stuff!!! Had to make Pouet account to come give you big thumbs up!

Here's a new video on YouTube. (The earlier link has a whole range of issues.)

Thanks for the nice comments!
The demo once again ended up being extremely rushed so we're looking to release a slightly improved final version soon.
added on the 2017-04-18 20:24:29 by dodke dodke
The best Unique demo so far. Great 3d graphics / textures / colors, cool hires resolution and nice post processing effects (noise, lights). And it runs smooth on a real Amiga 060. Good work!
rulez added on the 2017-04-18 22:04:49 by slayer slayer
Well deserved win in the compo! Good stuff!

Mostly what Jazzcat said about the whole thing, especially liked the organ in tune. Too short!
rulez added on the 2017-04-19 07:31:40 by Serpent Serpent
Looks superb! Worthy winner!
rulez added on the 2017-04-19 11:01:16 by malmix malmix
really nice demo. i wish it would've been a lil bit more uptempo. Watching it on my A1200 with a 1538S CRT monitor makes this demo graphically even better! it looks so damn good and it runs pretty smooth on my 060@80MHz :)
Next year i wanna see Unique, Skarla, Ephidrena, TBL, Elude, Ghosttown and Focus Design battle each other in the Amiga Demo compo!!! :D
rulez added on the 2017-04-19 17:40:08 by Cego Cego
Great graphics, but pretty generic and I'm not fond of the music.

Worthy winner of the compo, though I very much dislike the use of interlace in Amiga demos these days, as it essentially means you have to have either a CRT or a decent de-interlacer in order to watch the demo properly.

Some technical feedback:
- The 3D engine could use some sub-pixel precision.
- I noticed one or two bitplane glitches (for instance, at 1:55 in the youtube). Are you writing bitplane pointers to the copperlist unsynchronized with the copper?
rulez added on the 2017-04-20 12:21:36 by Blueberry Blueberry
Blueberry, It should de-interlace fine on a standard LCD TV too but I know what you mean. The problem is mainly that emulators don't support it. Not sure if I should use it next time or not.
It has (some) sub-pixel precision but the polygon routine is buggy. I should figure out how to do it better and rewrite it one day. Most of all the fixed point transformations are low precision and jumpy. The final should be slightly improved due to some scene optimisations. Also the bitplane pointer issue is fixed I hope. I think the audio replay was making the vblank interrupt late sometimes so I've added a wait in the copperlist to give it more time.

fantastic

nice!

Lots of 3D. Direction felt a bit rushed at times, but otherwise a very solid entry that made it look more like a PPC or a late-90s PC demo.
rulez added on the 2017-04-21 16:58:40 by moozooh moozooh
Looked spectacular and great tune; and what jazzcat said.
rulez added on the 2017-04-21 21:31:24 by Kylearan Kylearan
love this one.
I've done a laced capture here, seems error free. I think is as good as it gets in order to keep 50fps and avoid using some lossy de-interlacing algorithm :) (Revert link if old capture preferred)

This is awesome. It really is. Soundtrack in general and the direction especially in the logo scene is just pure orgasm.

Obviously a very worthy winner with the overall best package of code, design, and music. Very enjoyable!

I didn't see the benefit of using lowres interlace.

Really great looking, and good pacing - I am missing a bit of "action" in all the nice looking (but static) scenes though :)

Derserved winner!
