It works perfectly fine on a stock c64, if sid at $d420 is not detected it warns about it and allows to continue anyway. There are other C64 demos that take advantage if REU is present, or if run from a C128, and just run without extra features if extra HW is not present.

Agree with ZeSmasher. File type says 'c64 one-file demo' but it doesn't run properly on a stock 64...
C64 misc. seems more fitting.
Apart from that... Awesome production!

@ZeSmasher: And what would you add? 2SID Demo, 2SID One-File Demo, 2SID Music Collection etc? 2SID suffix is pretty much sufficient ;)

ZeSmasher: Ask for that in the Forum, or in a message to the mods etc.

since it needs special HW to run properly I demand a new entry type. same for REU, sure.

@Hedning+Ian, it's not true it works perfectly fine on a stock c64. It works, sure, but not properly, since you don't have sound. like a pal only game could work on a ntsc machine (or viceversa) if you don't mind some glitches or else, but if it runs properly you have the "ntsc fix" tag.

so what I suggest it's not 100 new entry types like Jammer said, but a single tag like "needs special h/w to run properly" or "not 100% on vanilla c64" or similar, which will be used in case of reu, 2sid, 4player adapters, and other releases.
