My favourite Team210 demo now. <3

Very good colors at the beginning.

Wow, this prod is a mess :D

Not necessarily a bad thing, it certainly has an energy it carries through, but it's trying to be so many things at once (is the music electronic or orchestral/classical? is the prod dark/brooding or high energy? are you winking towards Cocoon/Absolute Territory or a more generic raymarch 4k?) that it feels very schizophrenic in the end :)

strange in many ways... but that kind of energy is important!
and dat not really smooth scroll caused a real pain :)

Should have ranked higher. I can really understand you’re upset.

thanks for the feedback :) will iterate & try and improve that in the next prod. :)

I love seeing the progression you guys made over the course of just two years - this one being a huge step up into the visual and musical department, simply because the two of you are so eager to learn and improve and it shows in some of the details that many take for granted because they look right :)

Also there's quite a lot to see in the demo and while I think that it could have profited from a little reduction here and there, it still has a very "you" vibe and I have nothing but respect for your passion for making stuff and that energy you put into the growth that's happening now. <3

Pretty cool and good stuff. Love the energetic music.

Good craftmanship, captivating visuals, the music alone seizes a domain of its own for this production. What hampers it is the invitation aspect - it breaks the immersion and allows the good stuff to go to waste.

Interesting.. and confusing.. and jarring.. and not quite a thumb up from me

Sorry, but the tune's a cacophonous mess.
added on the 2022-09-25 01:34:54 by phoenix phoenix
And it's painfully slow at 1080p, so I'm not sure I can even piggy.

it looks polished af but also extremely bland. nothing that sticks out. and the music is ruined by that weird piano (which is a shame because the rest of the tune is nice and pumping). but the scroller looks like it was slapped on some finished backlog prod just to make it somewhat an invitation. it mainly feels so for me because it comes out of nowhere scrolling away. overall not a really bad prod but for my taste it could have been way better with adjusting some things. oink.
hey, phoenix - the "mute den scheiss" checkbox and the "potato resolution" might be the correct choice for you ;) Also, there is a YouTube video. No need to thumb down because of slow framerates on your toaster.

Not bad. :)

Here are my "benchmarks" (first part only):

Ryzen 3700X, GeForce 3070Ti, 16MB RAM, Win10, Vsync off.

1080p (default settings): 14 fps
Mute den scheiss: same
1x MPAA: same
720p (default settings): 30 fps (next two parts are 75 and 58 fps)
320p: 188 fps (yeehaw)

The NVidia performance overlay I'm using doesn't show GPU mem usage, so I can't tell if it hits the 8 GB limit.

So, it's watchable at 720p, but nearly everything else in existence is watchable at 1440p, or at least 1080. Heck, even a GPU demolisher like Soul Splitter runs 40-80 fps at 1440p.

and that should be 16GB RAM of course.

Thanks for the benchmarks.
Hey, I totally get that you want to watch the prod without encoder artifacts. :) I'd personally like to host the videos somewhere else than youtube, where the subtle effects do not get butchered as fuck, but you know how it is.

The prod is made on RTX3090, and the reason for the high performance requirements is as usual volumetrics & glow.

I'd really hate to sacrifice those for better framerates on average GPUs, especially because the compo hardware in intro compos is beefy for the exact reason that we can watch the most beautiful eyecandy in the intros.

Yeah, sophisticated optimizations are always possible (and I'm capable of making them, that's not the point) - but they eat a lot of time, time that I'd really much rather invest in making another prod. Or making the same prod more beautiful.

Confusing, but strong piggie with high hardware-requirements and a very ugly scroller.
