- 4k Amstrad CPC Pixel Free by Flush & Vital-Motion! [web] & Revival
- I find the idea of only racing the beam without showing a byte of video RAM is nice ! I would be very glad to see some other productions trying the same kind of exercise in style.
The introductive "Flush" logo in rasters is nice, too. - rulezadded on the 2022-04-17 22:18:54
- demo Amstrad CPC Onescreen Colonies #2 by Vanity [web]
- This is not a "technical achievement never seen before" : It's a mode "R" effect which has been used in a Batman Group demo years ago.
Nevertheless the 2nd part of this intro is quite eye-catching to me, although it might have been worked on a little bit.
Unfortunately, as usual when it comes from Vanity, they are very agressive and condescending in their scroll texts. One of the people "greeted" into this intro told me he's filing a complaint against them.
This intro runs only on 1 CPC on 2 because they haven't managed to be compliant with every Amstrad CPC, justifying themselves this way : "Why should we make our demos run on the low-quality hardware of an ungrateful public ?". Just think, Vanity : You may earn or deserve gratitude, not claim for it ! And please don't hide your incompetence in CRTC adaptation under some kind of "elitist" considerations.
Your scrolltexts are absolute rubbish. You are turning 40, dudes, why do you keep acting like 14 yo kids ? - sucksadded on the 2022-03-24 22:43:52
