- I wrote a long post, but deleted it because I think it came across too harsh. Anyway, this demo doesn't quite work for me, I think something went "wrong" in the color-processing that somehow makes it look both muddy and overly saturated at the same time.
By no means a bad demo, it's just that it tries to set up some strong atmosphere, but the rendering completely takes me out of it. Obviously other people feels differently, so I guess it's a "me"-problem.
There's some neat-looking effects in here, for sure. - isokadded on the 2024-04-16 11:31:34

- This is just not enjoyable to watch in the end.. I just don't see why this was done in the first place, there's not even a single part that feels like it justifies making a demake. It feels very forced, and a bad fit for the hardware.

these guys know their target audience :D
Yes, we do, because it's ourselves!
And just in case it's not 100% obvious: we didn't make this as a trick to emotionally manipulate the voters into giving us yet another golden duck. I mean, that kinda did happen, but it's not the reason we made this.
This is made as our love-letter to the Danish scene, TRSAC, TBC... and Cheesy in particular. We love you Hans!
TBC DVD Experience is a classic, for all the right reasons. But it's old, and the world needed a higher fidelity version. And when poking at that, we found out that there were more languages, so we just had to lean into that a bit ;)
We originally wanted to release this last year, when the original turned 20 years old... But we didn't even come close. And even this time, with something like 1.5 years of off-again/on-again production time, we still missed the deadline by a long shot, driving Puryx crazy by not handing in the release until just as the compo was starting. I think the risk payed off in the end, because two hours earlier, the last minute of the demo was entirely static. But thank again for bearing with us, Puryx!
Seeing this on the big screen, with smoke, lights and the crowd dancing was awesome. It was even better received than what we hoped for, and seeing that is for sure one of the highlights of my scene career!
A final version will come, but we need to rest a bit more before we're getting onto that. The demo has too many imperfections that shouldn't be too much work to fix. And then we can finally close the book on this years long chapter.
Quote:It takes a minute or two to load/precalc, though?
Yes, the loading-times are awful. That's my fault.
The primary reason for that is mostly that all the animations are baked as mesh sequences, because getting stencil shadows working on top of GPU skinning without geometry shader support (ugh WebGL) proved tricky and time-consuming. So we're loading and generating shadow-caster geometry from all the meshes, and that's sadly pretty slow.
It should be possible to do it without the baking, but we ran out of time trying to get that to work, and it was holding back the artwork. Oh well.
We're not planning on fixing this for the final version, though... - isokadded on the 2023-11-01 11:09:32

- Some more context:
The original soundtrack is a remix of a cover of a Danish translation of the Spanish Eurovision song-contest entry from 1973. Our version throws the Swedish translation as well as the original Spanish version into the mix. Hence the triple start.
We didn't go as far as the Yugoslavian song the Eurovision song has been accused if plagiarism of, though. - isokadded on the 2023-10-23 17:59:27
