Free trip to the party by alien abduction? YES PLEASE! :))
I'll be there to reclaim my stolen scene spirit of course :)
Fantastic <3
See you there!
See you there!
Wayfinder r3w1z!
SMELLS LIKE SCENE SPIRIT!!
Great one :)
omg.
Graphics <3 .. I'll bring my 80% demoscene spirit
Whoa, that SO took over my bran. Something completely different!
\o/
now that's what i call neat :) only very minor thing was that sometimes there was too much demo between the text :)

ça rosque didiou!
extraordinary invitro, but nice ;-)
statix's invitro to whatever in that decent clone was cooler, but this is just better :)
graphics does it all :)

DAMN FUCKING EXCELLENT!!!
heh errr... well, thumbs up for the pictures
wow what a marvellous tune : teh rulez!!!
also hardcore amount of gfx
great invitation

oh well, its amazing ye!
not my cup of booze
Amazing Stuff!! See you there!!
remindes me of melon stuff but this is new in a way and it totally rocks
When I manage to find words to describe this demo I will write them down somewhere. Right now I am going to go be stunned some more. Absolutely freaking stunning. I mean the 2d and the small bits of 3d that have been used to emphasise the 2d and the direction of it all and the music and the graphics and the way it FITS TOGETHER I mean it's just... I'm hoping one day I can actually pull something like this off. Really. Absolutely freaking incredible.
excellent!
Well yeah, kinda very cool, but somehow I don't feel like watching it second time.
ooh nice
good production, nice idea !
really nice.
really nice.
Amazing how everything fits together! Looks a lot like Jean Giraud (aka Moebius).
an absolutely wonderful production... Chaos, Wayfinder, KB, Floetus, I love you... what I think is great about the production is that it caused - with me at least - a lot of emotion.... it managed to touch the audience... and for that you have my fullest respect... (*takes a bow*) See you at Breakpoint, fellas. Brainstorm will be there. o/
different and cool!
\o/
Nice graphics!
![[self-ban]](https://content.pouet.net/avatars/intro.gif)
ok
Very touching. Good idea, good work. Especially thumbs up for kb for the stunning soundtrack.
Nicely done! Great soundtrack - and some amazing graphics - a zone66 relapse, which did all this, not so nicely of course, on the american scene 10 years ago... But great to see it back.
yeppa, parallax-scrolling. really nice invi. superb gfx and tune. see ya there guys...
damn, i wish i had pixelshaders card...
great sound - rest is not exactly my cup of tea, but wow - what an effort..so..
ah there was a video... :)
lovely one! superb graphics and sound. i donly don't really get what the pixelshaders are needed for...

A very refreshing demo idea.
very good.
omfg!!! The graphics... THE GRAPHICS!! I'm stunned....
at last an invitation that is really about inviting people to the party.
It's so-so. Really not fancy. Ok, it's not the mainstream demostyle, but really - you can't just throw something together and think that it rocks just because it's not what everyone else does these days.
Is it a demo or a short movie? Breathtaking, either way. It's emotional, but stays comfortably clear of any cheesiness. Great introduction to the BP06 theme.
Error "Could not create screen"
(I have Geforce5700LE 256mb)
I watched this in windowed mode and I personally thought it was dreadful! I thought the graphics were horrible scrawls, horrible colours, the concept was simple, it was jerky (in windowed mode at least) and the biggest WTF is that it needs pixel shaders?!?!
It was really boring too...picture layers, cast shadow, text, more picture layers, cast shadow, text...etc
I'd expect this kind of quality from JML or Speedfisters or even a Fearmoths joke prod, but not from Farbrausch!
I'm just so confused why all the thumbs up as I honestly can't see the appeal of this!

Ps. I'm not trolling with that comment I promise. I just don't get it! Paralax scrolling was done over a decade a go on a lesser platform with far superior graphics (I.e. Shadow of the Beast) and this looks like the inferior of the two.
woo .. is it my imagination or was the some hidden code inside in the end scroller music? ;)

if you had skipped the texts this wouldve been a true masterpiece
Thanks for having made and released this digital comics :)
fuck invitations, let's art!@#
seriously, this one was nice; especially because of the amount of neat graphics. using a filled bag of 2d became somewhat rare during the years, also the short mention of the code inside in the end part of the musick made me smile. =)

not really breathtaking but thumbs up for coolness.
yummy
scene spirit!!
Thump up for the graphics and the music!!
Smells like teen scene spirit ;-)
cool, the concept is so original :)
Sorry to say that but i agree 100% with Shanethewolf, its really nothing special as a DEMO. Im not thumbing this down just because of some parts of music was nice.
Excellent! this is a "production" - something which some people (no names) dont get.. it makes me even more excited about going to breakpoint this year! Right mood, right reason.. demo or fucking die yeah!
BRILLIANT
Oh man, this rules so hard. There are some things (like the text) that I think are not 100% perfect but anyways... now I need another 149 gloeps as fast as possible...
congrats wayfinder, this is just excellent
Shane: doesn't it create ANY kind of emotion for you? If not,then i'm kinda puzzled...
Thumbs because it's first of a kind - wouldn't want to see more of this, but it was quite good for a one-of-a-kind production.
The introscene in the japanese gardens looked lovely.
The introscene in the japanese gardens looked lovely.
really great work!
Plain and nice. A bit looong. The mixing of 2d and 3d is cool. A little bit too emo for me, but a clean production nonetheless.
Nice pictures.
Nice gfx, but that's all... more like a slideshow than a demo, imho, so a piggie
perfect for an invitation. that's all it needs to be.
wow ! Fantastic ! Mega rules and hope to see it get some nominations next year for direction and graphics.
It's a great invitation. It has some nice demo effects as well.
yes!
i've seen that, there was nice pictures but... it's for breakpoint and is far away from rendering quality of farbrush, seems like it's an old demo of orion ( nice gfx but thats all ), so thumb down.
Not my cup of tea and too long. Still worth a thumb up for the soundtrack, the graphics and for being totally different from what I expected from a new FR invitation anyway:)
Super cool.
Effects are for losers.
Effects are for losers.
this made my day. superb style, also big respect to kb!
great team work. Kb great sound. Wayfinder the direction alone deserves a thumb- congratulations. Constructive criticism: Too long between the text, the pace slackens and I lose attention.
Like a movie, i loved it... just loved it, great work!
Not for me sorry... Good music, nice graphics but, not my cup of tea.
The first demo since ages that crashed my XP so hard that it even got hickups after 2 reboots! (Otherwise it kinda ruled although)
not bad for some moving layers.
still i have to agree that its simply to long and slow.
anyway nice release

kicked ass big time.
The only negative things were that sometimes the pacing felt 'too slow' (can't really put my finger to it), some parts of the soundtrack sounded too 'digital' and i would've loved to see the birds flap their wings.
but still, great stuff with a really nice atmosphere!
melwyn: i think i heard some code inside too :-)

splendid artwork and emotional soundtrack, but
I somehow fail to build the connection between
"Taken Spirits" and "Rumble In The Jungle" o_O.

absolutely superb gfx and direction.
quite different from most other things.. nice that the conclusion will be at breakpoint :) ..see you there...
had some movie trailer feelings. :)
great graphics!
great graphics!
so pretty
remember that this is an invitation...
i love it, the soundtracks is great and the direction is awesome.
and please keep in mind that storytelling is harder work than creating an effectfest.

cool
What a bunch of shit for a DEMO! F***ing renderquality, no tentacle balls... but wait, wasn't that an Invitro? Remember the invitation files from c64 long ago? text (sometimes scrolling) with background music, inviting you to a party and giving you the data needed. And what do we have here? exactly that. Fullfills its purpose. Plus f***ing cool 2d-gfx. Plus overwhelming soundtrack. Plus cool story with open end, wanting you to see how it ends at breakpoint party (better: be part of what can be the solution there). Plus all fits damned good together. Plus Emo ;-) Plus.... Scene-Spirit! Got it??!?
Not something i'd watch over and over again, but it's decent and fresh lookin' nonetheless.
Nice direction, nice design& artworks, emotional soundtrack, nice spirit in sum ;)
This is the first time I enjoy a FarbRausch demo not considering technics but visual pleasure without kickarse fx, nice job !

What? I think you are wrong. I mean, at least if you are going for effects with something _new_ in them. At best, these are wildly different things and it's very hard to compare them.
(sorry, I'm not commenting the prod here.)
ruling. Great graphics and direction. Was a bit of a shock seeing those 2 skyscrapers though, my wife used to work there!
excellent
good job lads! see you there!
rulez! I just can't wait to be there :D
Looks nice, sounds nice. But hell, this is BORING!
This speaks directly to my heart. Awesome..
See you there! =)
See you there! =)
very good direction, the music is superb, and the mix of 2d graphics with strategically placed 3d effects are great!
It looked as a real comicbook... animated in realtime :)
Congratulations guys, i'm willing to go to the party and see the decoration for this year... I hope if we should go protected to avoid our spirit to be taken ;)

how deliberate itis!! imho
does that bum sitting in traditional chinese gloriette imply some regardful prospect of cnsceners looking toward thebp!? unpierceable, even unaccountable of spirits taken.

somehow reminds me of this http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=311
enthralling!
Yeah, too bad melon invented animation!
Hehe.. Fresh and very good :) Me Likez this!
not bad nor good...
It ran a bit slow on my card, jerky scrolling and so on. Which I find a bit weird considering it's pretty much only parallax scrolling 2d images.
But.. I couldn't possibly give a production with this amount of hand painted images anything but a thumb up.

nice work, but its soooo boring
nice!
sorry, but if I didn't thumb this one down, no-one would believe anything I said ever again. Oh my god this was boring!!
I can't help but feel that if this wasn't done by the famous krauts and not handed in as an invite, people would've lapped it up as if it were a C64 demo diskloading animations.
Nice artwork, far too much corn. Very nice anyway.

damn fine... fuckings to thumb-downers
Bof.
Nice graphics, nice music, nice shading and material effects, but it does not touch me at all.
(And well, I think it's not particularly impressively sequenced, or having a particuarly interesting theme).

I liked the style very much. Something completely different, at least from what I watched as yet.
However, I'm missing the party flavour of this one. In my opinion the production is too sophisticated...;) And, yeah, I really need to attend the opening ceremony, because I still don't know what "Rumble in the jungle" is supposed to be about.

Melon! ?
That's different... and that's good!
This one is too boring for me - greets to MFX and fuckings to Kewlers for their great invite last year :-)
Very nice. The graphics is very very good, as is the music.
I'm still rather clueless about the whole "rumble in the jungle" concept though, but I'm guessing that will solve itself durring the opening cermony. :)

i really enjoyed watching this
It's not just the gfx, but the music and presentation that counts. No effects in there, can't figure out why it should need pixelshaders, but wtf?
End scroller music was really nice, reminded me of unfinished sympathy in a very lush way. And hey, I've been on this scene spirit shit since evoke 04, great theme :D
Fine invitation all in all.

Fantastic invite.. design that really works.
Rather solid and polished all round.. nice msg ;)
Yeh this makes me emotional, but only because I can't afford to go goddamit..

Awesome direction, atmosphere and art - but misses the party atmosphere. Something cool should happen at the end. This way it's just not THAT killer, and painful to re-watch.
Does not run here..
Absolutely boring to my mind. Whats the purpose/message/content.
So many, really talented sceners where involved in this Prod ... too bad ... FR really degrades over the last 2 years. =((

good one
Great one , we see us at the Party :)
This was boring, although cool graphic style, but the way it was directed made it damn boring.
Nice, but boring. Wanna sleep.
this is very cool ;-)
gives a really fantastic atmosphere, especially considering the fact that one has been at the party location before. personally i really like the music, graphics and direction, so thumbs up. good job!
kewl beanz
I partly second thumbdowners' comments, but in my eyes a thumbdown is just not fair.
It's so brillantly produced !
I miss some in-your-face action ;)
Anyway, a nice party invitation with an original approach.
That is great.

not the best work...
... but also not the worst
very cool rendering techniques, didn't seem too long to me at all. the spirits being "taken away" were kinda freaky, but was nonetheless interesting.
I'm looking forward to part 2... :)

Not very technical code but good designed and screen sequence. Maybe a bit slow ;)

cool, i like demos that aren't only 3d objects, shaders and such 08/15 stuff
Thumbs up for being radically different.
Nice and different but a bit too slow paced...
Different style, but it was OK. I wasn't expecting it. Nice bass.
The one different from the current fr style.
gfx and music was great!
and very good design.

Awesome! Was expecting someting else at the end somehow - but I guess that wouldn't have fit with the whole invite thing. Bummer on the delays to the prod!
Nice Graphics, cool Music and an invtro does not need coder-pron
happiness :)
Wow!
Perfect! even without fancy 3D!!!
well... slow. Multilayer scrolling and some comic stuff...
fresh
Very nice illustrative music. I'm happy to see how scene music is still connected to the reality of nowadays productions instead of electronic thingies that only fit to the scene.
However, I think that less quantize would had make it less "digital" and more human as said by uncle-x.
And I am so pleased to see real graphics coming back. All in all, this prod has an emotional content and this is rare.
Great but unfortunately, the direction did not make it for me. I don't see the point and I don't want to. It just doesn't fit to the purpose of the intro: invitation and fun!

we've done lots of prods with a relatively technical focus over the last few years. i don't think we need to apologize for doing something that emphasizes its graphics for once, especially when it's as great as floetus' and wayfinders work.
it needs a pixelshaders for some relatively subtile postprocessing filters and blend modes. could've probably been done differently, but seriously, it's 2006. this stuff has been around long enough to just use it if seems fit. for me anyway.

Awaiting for the next part!
Couldn't watch the whole thing. Nice graphics, good effort, but boring as all get out.
Kudos for the creativity and daring to do differently...

best invitation demo so far.
Too long, too static, boring... graphics and music are nice, so piggie i supose.
Whoops! XD
compared to other production how can one thump this down? i would never have expected something like this from code-rausch
Brilliant, awesome... more demos in this style please! and .. and .. and .. they took the time to put it all in one archive.. no more dirs full of .jpgs, .oggs, mp3s .. Rule! I say.. this is like them good old days! *hurray*
Awesome gfx, direction and music.
great music and gfx, really.
... but it's just so boring, and why the hell does it need so much ressources?
... well nice try tho, still much better than most of the demos i've seen here these last few months, with balls boucing around, tunnels and pointless shit like that ...
... but still boring, too bad.
gruik.

very good FR prod! FR is dead? :D
good looking but boring...
I was positively surprised that this is something different than ordinary invitations. Theme and graphics were nice.
Just perfect !
easily forgettable
utterly stunning...! I love it...!
kinda strange, but great graphics and nice music
amazing
great great great ! ! prod
up for the graphics...
Very nice.
horrible, the sound played with cracks/jitters here... don't know if it's supposed to sound like this.
No comment... Congrat dudes!
rocks!
Congrats dudes this one is a killer, I'm blown away.
nice
i think it is great to see FR try new sides of expression; i think this is technicially wonderful and quite beautiful.
Great job :)
Great job :)
Nice style invitiation! But expected some more in idea, concept & coding. Something completely different :) at least not good as I expected from the comments here.
nice invitation... but as a demo I find this rather boring... Nice gfx though.
wow good music, good graphics but some parts are al little bit too long
i agree with nobbi
some more animations would be cool
some more animations would be cool
superb and enchaining!
beautiful graphics, great music, high image and sound quality.

wow. i was expecting 3d and ebm and i'm actually pleased i didn't get it!
geberlaune.... aber trotzdem bissel lahm
Great prod, love the music. And that 'code inside' cameo during the end theme: genius!
didnt get my demosenses going.
it`s not my cup of tea
it's totally my cup of tea !
(and with art !!)
(and with art !!)
Very nice GFX! Very nice music! :) i really love this demo... runs smooth. more of this please!
having a look at it again, this is sooo good. Shane saying he is not trolling ?.. he must be having a laugh...
This is the most awesome invitation I've ever seen. Thumbs Up++
very nice! :D
Lovely invitation!
Nice GFX
This is a cool invitro but i wasen't there to long to germany from me but think i will go there sometime when iam over 18 :D
unbeatable concept
this was beautiful.
direction+concept+gfx+music
jau
different
yes
It has very nice look and feel. I like it.
:)
love the style
pure lovely crap.
A bit too static, perhaps... but it looks so beautiful <3
you know, this is a really amazing story... and then it suddenly turns into a breakpoint advertisement which i find a bit of a forced turn.
nonetheless, sweet and inspired throughout.

nice graphics.. but way too boring for a invitation

Nice final fantasy styled music
Best Graphics award nomination? I thought is would be the Best Direction one.
Really enjoyable demo and the music RULEZ!
Different style, massive soundtrack.
Made a Highres Youtube video for it:

BP invit.
The overture promises a lot, and then... i felt asleep.
a massive thumb from the past!
Nice, and a very good idea.
Didn't enjoy the demo itself that much, but the soundtrack keeps coming back to me. Hence:
Haha.
I never thumbed this? Shame on me.
Wonderful 2d scenes drawn by Floetus and epic soundscape by kb!

Love this one. Puts me in mind of Broken Saints, don't know if that was an inspiration.
This is a bore and I can't stand to watch this all the way through but I appreciate the graphics work and overall stylistic boldness enough to give it my regards :)
Whenever the word invitation comes up, this is the first prod I think about. Love the graphics, and this must have been a serious amount of work to draw all these.
11/10 would come to BP 2006 =)
