Keep in mind, this demo runs on a stock A1200. That's a 14mhz machine with 2 megabytes of SLOW ram. It's being done realtime in software with no hardware 3d acceleration on the AGA chipset. The AGA chipset was designed in 1988. So to put that in perspective, that's all of this in realtime on technology from 1988 in a machine that was essentially a low end budget version of the Amiga that retailed for $300 in 1994.
@RepoOne yeah sorry about that. Still the point is there, this is running on a budget machine using a chip set designed in the late 1980s. That's the important part.
Great atmosphere, great job, great spirit. Just perfect. I miss such good demos on AmigaOS 4. Please do some!!!

The music indeed uses the pieces of FSoL, anyway the production is simply classic already, just GREAT.

Ain't the music from the start of the demo sampled from Future Sound of London - Dirty Shadows? ;)

68060 is one of worlds best CPU's. Its shame that ColdFire only have few 060 parts left. Amiga and 68060 is fast! Can be pushed a lot! Great demo!

@luccaskunk As powerful as the stock A1200 is, this demo actually required 8MB of Fast RAM and recommended a 68060 for smooth playback.

A pyramid teabag really inspired me when making the Aztec temple graphics. Truth!
