Released at the Ultimate Meeting '07. Inviting YOU to Icons 2008

Helsinki, Finland

-DivX video and soundtrack (.mp3) are available at:
[ http://thygrion.untergrund.net/ ]
Along with more of our work.

-Mostly coded on a Pentium II 650mhz with 192MB RAM and a
Geforce MX 4000.

- To run this decently a 1.5GHz machine is required
and some horse power out of the GPU
(no shaders and only basic OpenGL stuff used so go figure)

-Ferris' Notes:
-This is the party version. And the final version.
To me, those shouldn't be two different things. As
far as bug fixes go for this, I haven't noticed any
except on some cards with low video memory none of
the particle effects work. If this occurs, run it
again with a lower resolution, or just download the
video version. Oh yeah, there have also been some
compatibility issues with Vista, but I think that's
expected. ;)

-I threw in the inverted mode because I was bored :) .
It inverts the colors and it's kinda neat, although
I think it looks better in the original color scheme.

-EVERYTHING in this intro has been hard-coded - all
animation, camera paths, etc., everything. I
really just don't feel like coding a WYSIWYG demomaker
like Farbrausch or Conspiracy or Stravaganza or any of
them - I don't have the time and I wouldn't like to
do it without the rest of my group, so maybe we will
once I have a stable internet connection again.

-I am 15 years old. However, when this demo will be
released, I will have only just turned 16. Just thought
I'd throw that out there. :D

-Final thoughts: I like the demo as a whole more than
anything I've ever done. Finally, especially with the
music, I'm producing in a style that I really feel
strongly about. I had more fun working on this project
than I have making a demo in a long time. The only
thing I regret is that the some of the group didn't
take part in the production - I can never seem to talk
to Decipher...well, at least I actually had something
that could be called design this time ;) .

-Waffle's Notes:
Well what do I see here. I wasn't going to participate
in making of the demo at all but seems like it's 3AM
and deadline approaches. :) Not much to add. It looks
nice.
