I have come back to this demo again to have another look because i remember it so fondly :) Fuck 2009, give me back the computing Amiga/C64 world of the 80's and 90's !!!!
Those years were OUR time my friend. We were lucky enough to experience a time in Computing that guys younger growing up will NEVER understand and missed out on in a big way.
It is SO true buddy! I will never forget that magic feeling - the feeling of meeting all the cool dudes and friends at "THE PARTY" in Denmark; a full blown scene party with thousands of Amiga's and C64 all over the place. I am proud'n'grateful to have been a part of it ! :o) Only AMIGA Makes It Possible!
Sigh. I'm an 89' model and I love Amiga demos/cracktros and the oldskool demoscene more than anything else. Your statement is very wrong. It wouldn't even surprise me if I was an even more Amiga enthusiast than you.
What is this supposed to be, an attack on me for stating something that in most cases is quite true!? My statement was not solely directed towards the Amiga scene but the whole computing scene in general when personal computing started becoming affordable in the early 80's for which you were not even born until the end of it, and the Amiga scene "as it happened" you still would not have been fully aware of until about 1994.
I am not saying that you are any less passionate about the Amiga that i ever was, but this is not about how much more of an Amiga enthusiast you were/are than me, you have NO IDEA how much time i spent in front of the Amiga EVERY DAY from 1990 till 2000 with 300 + Amiga publications, but it has more to do with the FACT that you just were not old enough "at the time" when the Amiga was BIG to comprehend it.
I respect the fact that you love the Amiga, but lets just see it in reality :)
But in saying all this, i am not trying to be some older elitist cock head that gets around saying "oh younger guys would know.. blah blah blah", its just that biologically and chronologically facts are facts for the majority of Computer users out there that are your age!, but after checking out your channel i can see you are truly an Amiga enthusiast, so there are exceptions such as yourself, but you must be able understand where i am coming from on this do you not?
Calm down, it's not an attack. You were just saying something quite stupid: "We were lucky enough to experience a time in Computing that guys younger growing up will NEVER understand[..]". It's like saying "You guys will never understand what the NES TV game was for its time".
I think quite many at my age is capable of understanding that a home computer from 1986 with custom chips (which was a rare sight these days) and 4 channel blasting PCM was way ahead its time.
The problem with some pride oldskoolers that "experienced the magic thing" is that they have no idea that today's generation people actually can reexperience that fantastic thing - I did. I don't have to live in 1992 to understand it - even not to feel the "whoa, this machine is a beast" feeling - I did and I do.
It's all about the comprehension of its hardware and its age!
Keep on living, be proud of what you experienced, but SORRY, there's no problem for today's generation to feel the same.
Sorry mate, its just that from experience, EVERY person younger than me that has seen the Amiga running or that i have talked with about are completely disinterested and seeing it old washed out technology.
Its very RARE to see someone of your caliber taking the Amiga onboard or even anything 8 bit such as the C64. I "have" seen younger guys into it, but not as young as you :)
So forgive my initial comment, and thank you for giving me a smack around the head and waking me up :)
So many cool gfx/music cobinations in this one, my favorite is break around 2m40s.

Man, I love this demo! Especially the intro with the raycast. I love the music when the Bomb logo appears. Great then, great now.

Listen to the music from 1:00 and forward in "The Prodigy • No Good (CJ Bolland Museum Remix)".
Both the remix and this demo came out in '94.
Would be nice to know who copied who.

The code was great ... I think later a 3D shooter was made from the same guys.

Right. This 3D shooter was "Fears".
