@ Dr.Science: We got a list and it's pinned and updated :) But that does not mean there is not more to come very soon.

@Dr.Science: what is this “GreetingsList” you speak of? Don’t we all just type the greetings in every time, recounting group names from memory?? I do! :p

Congrats guys! Another high enjoyable demo from you! Lovely storytelling (like in "looking for atlantis"). I like the positive energy! Oh, and is your greetingslist now up to date or can we expect another one in this series? ;-)

@anonym: we missed greeting atlantis in Hues so we made Looking for Atlantis . the first draft of the greetings pictures in that demo consisted only of a single logo - padua - but in the end padua completely disappeared and we're not sure why. fortunately we were able to get hold of this 13th century scroll and now we could greet padua properly :)

@ian coog: while it is not impossible to read it in memory, the scroller is probably still easier to read on screen than in memory. (it is stored in a format that is highly suitable for 6510 consumption, but less so for human consumption.) but reading the scroller - in full - can be quite rewarding, i think.

@raistlin: next to that scroll, on the bottom of the sea, was found what to the untrained eye looked like a 1000 uF capacitor. closer inspection revealed that it was actually a vial of pure demoscener energy that could be established to have been produced exactly 686 years ago. it contains enough energy to last for many thousands of years, and for hundreds of thousands of sceners, but the only way to extract it is to produce more demos. so we all just have to keep going at it to keep that energy flowing :)

What Raistlin said :)

I can only imagine what would have happened if the recent small demos by FLT were put together in a good way in one BIG demo..

FLT World Domination 2023 for sure going on now anyway! Keep em coming!

Thumbs-up to the all border starfield. This just might be the prettiest most balanced all border starfield on C64
The un_readbale tunnel/loop scroller looks great!
Shout out to the audio. I like the audio ^_^

Absolutely fantastic demo!

Beautiful - what a work of art, what a flurry of activity, wonderful. Also, some conclusions:

1. Padua is one of the oldest demogroups.
2. The c64 yellow scenemarine sank in the baltic see and lead to a discovery of a scroll during its recovery.
3. Padua kinda had a demo at Assembly.
4. Fairlight made up for forgetting to greet Padua in previous demos.

Overall great demo fx. The unreadable twisting scroller is amazing, now I'll have to peek in memory to read it

Great tunnel-scroller.. or .. don't know what to call it. Actually quite impossible to read the text, if ever there is any text there :D.. but it looks great, and that is all that counts!!

Nice work, Trident! It feels like only a week since your last demo? Have you been drinking Youth Elixir to get the energy of a teenage scener again???

Really nice demo, this one, some nice effects!
