    Jesus on E's. Pure awesome. It was the first thing of its kind I had ever seen, and I just stared at my TV for ages (until it asked me to insert disk 2 anyway ).

    And one that has stuck in my mind forever, it was on a coverdisk from some mag, along with the game Extreme Violence. "The Eagle Has Landed" or something. Not really sure about the name though!

              There's some amazing stuff being produced for the PC hosted on this site in 64k. Demos I can't believe are composed in such a limited amount of memory, but they are.

                I'm not one for using shortcut slang often... but...

                OMFG.



                Must see material.

                Voodoo magic. How on earth is that made from 64k?

                If you're a fan of Rez, or mid-90s futurism, must see material. Beautiful music too.

                    Done by the same people too. I can't believe farbrausch aren't signed up to a game developer or publisher after discovering how prolific they've been and what a diverse body of work they've got. Imagine some of these demos distributed over Xbox Live for the 360?

                    I feel as though my birthday has come early finding all this.

                    I haven't been in touch with what's been going down in the demoscene (as opposed to homebrew game development) for about ten years. There's some truly awe-inspiring work going on.

                          OMFG. (Part 2):



                          Sure, the guitar is naff, but the visual style is gob smacking.

                            Beat me to it!

                            Yep ,the RSI Megademo has to be the best considering it isn't just one demo but a collection.

                              Neither can I; you might want to have a look at who was hired to help develop the game Spore. Which, coincidentally, also heavily employs procedural generation.
