Nifty multi-part scene demo from Amiga-loving Belarusian coding outfit, Dream Makers Software.
Gape in awe at the rotating halo of wireframe stars, the smoothly animated XOR-ed solid disc sprites, the chaotic psychedelic fractal effects and finally an oscillating view of a lunar-like landscape under a starry sky. Vibrant stereo AY chip music runs throughout.
It's not the absolute best demo I've ever seen, but pretty impressive nevertheless. It scores 10 in the WoS archive at the time of writing. I'm more inclined to give it 4 out of 5 to at least leave some room for the occasional outstanding demo which dare I suggest could exceed this one.
The demo requires a 128K system or better, but the ending (perhaps unintentionally) varies depending on hardware. Under emulation at least, the end-credits sequence crashes on a standard ZX Spectrum 128K system. It works fine on a Pentagon 128K or Scorpion ZS 256, revealing the fact that ELF and IMP are responsible for the demo GFX. That is at least in FUSE. In Spin 0.666/Pentagon 128K mode it ends with "Mental Masturbation ends here" screen and you don't see the credits. I can't pretend to understand why the ending is so dependant on the hardware config.
In any case, it's worth a quick look for people who have a passing interest in demos. Certainly impressive, but not quite going to blow your mind.
