CPC is one of the examples, why C64 was always prefered. It's all with the (fat) SID sound. It has been something exceptional in the 80s. People liked that sound and tried to put the best around it. So other systems, even if faster, losed due to the "less good" sound.

Very good demo, impressive video effects. But you have still to improve the PSG usage over the SID in order to go completely beyond the C64 :P

Mode 3 - 160*200 - 4 colours
I am C64 guy but I really enjoy in yours great production. You guys are heroes.
Please tell us more about graphic modes that you used in this demo. Is there any new code that hack one of the graphic modes quoted above?
I saw CPC can use 16 colors from 27 color palette.

Thank you very much.
Yes, video modes have you listed are the standar documented modes. But this demo is in overscan:
192x272 for mode 0
384x272 for mode 1
768x272 for mode 2.
We also use rasters (or vertical split) to get extra colors.
And there is a screen in 384x272 (mode 1) and 16 colors + some extra colors due the flickering interlaced.
