Added SIDs and the big picture by Facet | User Comment Submitted by Yogibear on 18 November 2024 User Comment Submitted by Brush on 16 November 2024
It take a lot of effort to make the glitches looks so consistent :) It was a very unexpected ride and you really got me thinking with "it ends with us". Really.
+ loved the music in the end part! | User Comment Submitted by El Jefe on 12 November 2024
I love the glitch style of the demo and that Bonzai has tried something new! The combination with Facet's pics for the glitch style does not work for me though.
A great demo! | User Comment Submitted by MCM on 5 November 2024
Sweeet , i want moooorre ! I don´t need records to be broken or codepron as longs as such demos are entertaining me so much. Really great glitch stuff over all. Please keep digging into new territories from time to time guys. | User Comment Submitted by Mixer on 5 November 2024
Looks easy, but isn't. It's a Trap! | User Comment Submitted by Bob on 5 November 2024 User Comment Submitted by Aomeba on 5 November 2024
I loved this at the compo, just my kind of a cup of tea. I was sure this would be the winner. Hope to see Bonzai get out of their comfort zone more often!
Nice to chat with you guys @ Zoo as well! | User Comment Submitted by Flotsam on 5 November 2024
If it's not just a one-off, then please venture even further into the uncharted and scary world of anarchy. I liked the old stuff, but I can see myself liking a little more unexpected Bonzai even more, if possible. :) | User Comment Submitted by Mirage on 4 November 2024
Oh, that's right. I _was_ in bonzai PC for lethal display 5. Oh well, lesson learned. | User Comment Submitted by The Phantom on 4 November 2024
Early Christmas.. I'm a bit overly excited, and haven't even watched it yet :) | User Comment Submitted by CreaMD on 4 November 2024 User Comment Submitted by vincenzo on 4 November 2024
I understand the need for codepr0n, but I don't usually understand what's going on if it's pure codepr0n only.
I don't understand - and I don't care of - the technical background here. I do appreciate that this is different, this has a flow, direction, theme, and an overall completion feel when it's over.
Thanks, Bonzai. | User Comment Submitted by Hate Bush on 4 November 2024
how i do love the unexpected!
i'm so bought by this, infinitely more than even by your finest usual efforts. probably they just don't speak my aesthetical language that much.
"respect your mistakes" and so on. thank you from the heart of my bottom ;) | User Comment Submitted by Raistlin on 4 November 2024
Trap: as I said, it’s a very nice demo and, of course, not all demos need codep0rn :-) .. I saw the callout to me and just wondered if something was going to follow that would shock. No biggie :-) | User Comment Submitted by Trap on 4 November 2024
Thank you for all the comments. This demo was fun to make. We did it in 5 weeks and the point of it was never to satisfy the programming afficionados like Raistlin and Trident. Trident did spot some of our "this shit isn't easy to make" spots though - thanks :) This demo is about something else and less about technical abilities. We are fully aware that it will split the audiences. Some will like it and some will not. This time we (try to) satisfy a different demography than what is our usual audience. Bonzai can be an acquired taste, so I wanted for us to step outside of our comfort zone and try something different. Try it, you might like it :)
Another thing you maybe consider when looking at this demo from a technical perspective - loading times. See any? Raistlin the 18 seconds in the beginning is called "build up" ;)
Looking back maybe using the Lethal Display series for this experiment wasn't the best idea, but then again. We set our own rules I guess.
Zoo was the best party experience I have had in many, many years. As a scandinavian it is really fantastic to have an alternative to X, that is just as good. If you are only planning one party in the next years, Zoo should be on your shortlist. Thank you organizers for a fantastic party.
Some people asked about Lethal Display 5. It certainly exists. We made on PC in 1994. It was a different time in so many ways and that demo is a very good window into the demo scene of that time. Not saying the demo is good, it most certainly isn't our finest moment.
If you wonder who Mirage is, then yes. Mirage of Booze was once in Bonzai.
Here's a link to the video recording. Get it before Youtube bans it (when you see it you will know what I mean): https://youtu.be/ZT2eCznu2sg | User Comment Submitted by trident on 4 November 2024
personally i'm not a big fan of the glitch aesthetics. so for me the stuff that i like most in this demo is the non-glitchy things (yes, there are a bunch of those too, if you mentally filter out the little glitchie thingies ;) ). such as:
- the basic fader is cool!
- the geometrical pattern under the Glitch logo
- the big Glitch logo moving over the blurry pattern
- "it ends with us" :O
- "tree than just a more"
but mostly i am deeply saddened that there are no scrollers in there! i was soo looking forward to some new juicy scrollers :( sure there are a few scrollers in there, but not enough!
so maybe the ultra-secret lethal display 5 will be released at some point in the not-too-distant future filled to the brim with new, wonderful scrollers...! | User Comment Submitted by Raistlin on 4 November 2024
Quite stylish!
Nice to be referenced again - but felt a bit weird to not follow that up with some sort of record-breaker or codep0rn ;p .. I didn’t see any codep0rn in this demo so was a little sad :’( .. I can only assume you’re holding it back for something bigger.
Music and Art throughout is very very nice! Both Facet and Fox did stellar work.
After the awesome transitions in Bromance, I feel like I expect that from Bonzai demos now… so the 18secs pause before the wireframe tunnel effect was a shame.
Great demo to release at Zoo, though, nice to see you guys continuing to support so many parties :-)
Oh, great to see our No Bounds disk-squeezing efforts carried across here - “Make Small Demos Great Again” indeed! - let’s put an end to 2-side demos relaxing over 4 sides :-) | User Comment Submitted by Mibri on 3 November 2024
Love this new direction, it suits you! All that coolness in a single D64...! | User Comment Submitted by Smasher on 3 November 2024
great demo! besides all the technical, visual and audial top notch effects, the perfect pace here is what I like most.
hi Walt and Trap, it was cool to chat with you at Zoo! | User Comment Submitted by Case on 3 November 2024
Where's lethal display 5 ? | User Comment Submitted by 4gentE on 3 November 2024
<3 It's beautiful. One-siders rule! | User Comment Submitted by The Sarge on 3 November 2024
Congratulations on getting second place. Well deserved!
I really liked how you transformed the text at the beginning. Very clever.
The text, (I think Trap wrote them?), are beautiful. I think they deserved more attention in the demo than they got. Now the message got a bit lost.
Grid animation and circle at the end, really nice!
Good work! | User Comment Submitted by Magic on 3 November 2024
Nice demo! Re-invented yourselfs are you?
Just one question where is Lethal Display 5 ? | User Comment Submitted by Jammer on 3 November 2024
You all guys totally quit your comfort zones. That's the freshest C64 thing I've seen recently! <3 | User Comment Submitted by Scrap on 3 November 2024
awesome work and concept, but it could need some scrollers… 馃槈 (just kidding…) | User Comment Submitted by Aomeba on 3 November 2024
I liked this one a lot. Glitching is my kind of a thing and I admire the totally different route this time. You're great at this territory as well and I was expecting you to win the compo.
Nice talking with Trap & Walt as well! | User Comment Submitted by Mikael on 3 November 2024
Congratulations to a different Bonzai demo and the 2nd place! Loved hanging out with you at Zoo Trap and Walt! | User Comment Submitted by Dymo on 3 November 2024 User Comment Submitted by Joe on 3 November 2024
Nice glitchy stuff. Actually I could have been without the poetry-parts myself and just kept it to the rough parts. Even got a CPU Jam in the end-part(!) | User Comment Submitted by Clarence on 3 November 2024
Congrats, it's a decent demo, but feels a bit out of place in the LD series. I like your classic style more, but appreciate the effort put into this too. | User Comment Submitted by psych on 3 November 2024
Bonzai mk II. Love the fact that you explore new territories! Awesome! | User Comment Submitted by rambo on 3 November 2024 User Comment Submitted by katon on 3 November 2024
Congratulations, amazing and innovative Demo! | User Comment Submitted by Dr.Science on 3 November 2024
Remarkable how Bonzai has reinvented itself for this demo! Glitches never looked that sexy :-) | User Comment Submitted by wacek on 3 November 2024
Yes. That's what we call design, music sync and cool ideas developed into a great production.
To the list Isildur mentioned I would add puppies-kittens-holidays-popculture crap ;)
Welcome to the dark side, Bonzai. You'll love it here. | User Comment Submitted by Isildur on 3 November 2024
Perfect design and music. Thank you guys for this excellent newschool demo. C64 deserves some more stylish demos like this. Enough with decades of candy-funky-flowers-skulls-barbie crap :D | User Comment Submitted by Digger on 3 November 2024
Whoah! So different, very me likes. <3 | User Comment Submitted by metalux on 3 November 2024
