When we set sail for this demo we had nothing, and then we had this idea that we really wanted to create a demo for the ones that have been arranging Datastorm and them in focus and also things that had been on Datastorms... MUSIC, CODE, GFX and THE MOST important part of the demo in my humble opinion - THE SCENE LOVING TEXT that we all did but LEMMING mostly did write and struggle with to fit the demo that we all wanted to be great and portray our LOVE for you all.... God damn it - this is Lemmings demo and we had a bug when we changed the final imageas so that he is not even in the demo around the scene glory hole of love where sceners are open handed grabbing the one out of there... Lemming this is your demo. Me and Perplex are so sorry for the bugs we got there because you made this demo special and beyond! We are all connected!

But most of all: brilliant demo. Loved the graphics!

Haha!
I saw the demo on youtube (not really an active follower of all the demos) but was surprised to see an effect I made for Excel,sometime around 2003 I think!
The effect at 9:00 is strikingly similar to the effect of the Excel document you can find at: http://excel.goerp.nl/letters4.xls
Or watch at http://youtu.be/V2M2PLGmlDM

I can't imagine people finding that but otherwise I would have cried foul!

PS: If you WERE inspired by my Excel sheet: thanks!

A demo full of beautiful art with high level production values. The scroller is one of the coolest I've seen in a long time. The falling little cubes put a smile on my face and they reminded me a bit of Groepaz his Crowd Pleaser demo. Poor sheep in the intro, I hope they are ok lol. The jumpman bit at the end made me smile even more. Great work on the whole demo guys.

I have mixed feelings. At the party I was so blown away (and still am) by all the emotions that the Shape demo made me feel, that I thought this was just a whole lot of more-of-the-same from FLT and Prosonix.

I still haven't watched it at home and will probably have something more to say after that.

Usually I try to hold back with comments, but the hires gfx in this piece is from above the skies...

The pics seemingly turn into hires interlace while moving which is wonderful but they are just as nice when not moving.

Seeing your demos makes me think anew of the phrase "design drugs" - you definatly take a whole lot of plenty of them;)

Wowsers. I have deliberately let this sit with me for a few days before commenting on it. The amount of work and talent that has gone into this is yet again huge. One cannot but feel a sense of gratefulness for some truly beautiful moments in this demo. Moments that spring to mind are the tornado, the girl blowing bubbles, the scroller twisting around the vertical bars, the star with the bouncing balls and some very nice graphics that that to some extent of reinvents the whole technical approach to hires. The music that goes with it is clearly the 2nd best demo soundtrack in the whole democompetition at DS, and like everybody else present at the party, I had my mind blown by it when watching it on the bigscreen.

As you know, I love all of you both as craftsmen of demos and as true friends, and therefore I'm sure that you'll permit me a minor gripe here as well. As with the previous Offence demos of recent years, I think it that it suffers from being too big and too wide in scope. It seems to be made from the principle of letting everybody come to the table with whatever they want, which of course should be no problem when everybody is as talented as the people involved. And it's not that it doesn't work. It's more that I personally disagree with the approach, and that the worn out saying about the amount of chefs springs to mind. Contentwise, I feel that I could just as well be looking at as much three demos here, which again tells me that there is no one direction.

I hope, for the future, that we'll see a will in FLT/Offence/Prosonix to juggle things up a bit in order to make some smaller meals as well - made by smaller constellations of chefs. But hey, I'm well aware that I'm eating at a luxury restaurant here and I shouldn't really be complaining about the fact that there is too much on the plate and that the meal isn't as cold as I would want it.

I really liked this one, the black-dither-shaded hires graphics was a fresh new look. And thanks for not using VSP this time so I actually could watch it on my C64! :)

PAL must be astonishingly productive with the immense amount of pictures he produces for every demo, respect!

The second scrolling part created a very nice atmosphere with the graphic motives, the music and the scroller combining to at least give me a kind of feeling of friendliness and overall good vibes, even though I don't go to many parties and never even have been to Datastorm. So I guess that as the demo succeeded in conveying that emotion it has really lived up to its name! We are all connected.

This is the post-2010 C64 demo to show around to people, unlike those overrated entries on CSDb Top 10. The formidable group of coders shows in the breadth of content -- every demo should have this much to be worth released. Converted or not, both the large amount of GFX and the direction was stylish and coherent -- Cheers and Respect guys!

the only downer for me in this one is the excessive dithering in the gfx style.. its probably jut my bad taste but oh well.
apart from that this demo is in its usual own league, i love the game ending idea and think its one of wiklunds best demo soundtracks.

Thanks for the kind words, guys! We had a great time at Datastorm as usual and we really wanted to make a demo that showed our appreciation for what the organizers are doing to keep the scene alive.

gfx and music is really outstanding in this one... however, i still couldnt resist warpmode in some places.

i think a good practise for you guys would be designing a demo that has no scrolling whatsoever =)
