I really miss the days when there were still things we hadn't seen a computer do. Today I find PCs generally boring, but the ride up from monochrome text to textured 3D was amazing to live through.

By the time of its release, this demo was really amazing - and it still is, to me. Visually stunning and a master piece of tracker music! For those of you who're interested, the score's tracks are in order: "Decalogue" by Vogue (Intro, Text scroller, Linear algebra), "Ambient Power" by Vogue (Plasma, Mandelbrot zoomer, Vector slime, Virtual reality), "Desert Dawn" by Lizardking (Rendered pictures, Torus, Vector world, Chess game), and "Trans Atlantic" by Lizardkind (Menu).

yes, it was top notch technology back then. Triton guys were very talented, some of them were later in the team behind unfinished game "Into the shadows" (the released running demo of engine did put us on the floor, literally, very polished and very smart tricks in coding) , which turned into "Starbreeze Studios" (games like: Knights of the Temple, The Chronicles of Riddick, and more...)

Lol. People still with the Amiga vs. PC silly war. You needed a $2000 PC to run this, with a Gravis Ultrasound. You seem to forget that the typical Amiga demo was made on a $400 piece of equipment. There was no way you could make even an Amiga type demo on a $400 PC, because no $400 PC existed.

I used to write Amiga demos on the A1200, and was envious of PCs at the time, especially for textured polygon stuff. While a nice machine to program and it had some really nice features its raw performance was awful compared to a 486-66 running mode0x13/modeX.
