Amstrad Scenedemo - Batman Forever by Batman Group (Forever 2011)

Amstrad CPC Scenedemo Batman forever by Batman Group. First place in CPC Demo compo at Forever 2011

Interesting Demo. Ive never really taken much notice of the amstrad and shrugged it off as a sglorified pectrum that can do colour !. Now here is a demo that shows it can do hires colour at 50fps !. Makes me wonder what all the game devs were doing back in the old days. What makes this production more amazing is that it only requires a standard cpc (non plus) with 128k ram.

WinAPE Amstrad cpc emulator was used to show demo. make sure Fast Disk loading is dissabled if watching in emu.

Its seems quite amiga like, so doesnt look too out of place on an Amiga channel ;)

Try to understand what I'm saying: I don't say that's the best 8bit demo. I don't say that it's better than the amiga. Hell I even told that this AND Edge of Disgrace are the best demos I 've ever seen! And don't give me shit about "good for cpc" and such. It's an excellent demo on all 8bit platforms. Just like Edge of Disgrace. Just like Robotic Liberation. Just like Numen etc. Isn't it fanatical and fanboysm claiming that EoD is the best all around demo just because it's on C64? Think about it

My jaws agape. Stunning work lads. I remember being a kid hacking around on my old CPC128, and discovering all sorts of undocumented shit like some extra graphics modes that the OS didnt really understand (couldnt align stuff up properly) but the hardware clearly did. There was a lot of unlocked potential in these machines, but with no internet ,BBSs still rare, and the game companies refusing to divolge secrets the info just wasnt getting to developers. This really was an underestimated machine

@FreeFireFull A stylish. seeing the little "slow" the big fast is more impressive. The message was "you think the CPC can only do this, but he does that". ;)

Holy shit, Batman! How is this possible?

Totally jawdropping! It seems more an Amiga demo than an 8Bit one. Compliments!
