Another great story demo with our favorite blockheads. Romeo again has a message, although one from the Dire Straits like some people brought to our attention.
Tight, uncomplicated and angular artistic gfx with a good SID on top.
Nothing beats 1 Mil LY from Earth for me though. It felt like a mil years ago, a mil years away, with a vast and deserted high tech city save a few robot blockheads. The SIDs perfectly set the mood. | User Comment Submitted by cba on 26 April 2013 User Comment Submitted by bepp on 5 October 2010
Very artistic and clean. Good flow, accompanied by a great soundtrack. This proves that a demo is not all about breaking the most records. Thumbs up! | User Comment Submitted by MacGyver on 9 December 2008
Excellent story telling demo from Hollowman and friends. That robot character is somewhat facsinating. Combined with the lyrics and the music this makes an outstanding piece of melancholic art, with a touch of social critism. | User Comment Submitted by Jamais on 28 July 2007 User Comment Submitted by Ed on 4 December 2006
Looking back at it now, this is abit more
pale in comparison....

Well done, although those blocky guys somehow remind me of Terrance and Philip ;) | User Comment Submitted by gr on 31 October 2006

I will definately turn to a robot :> | User Comment Submitted by Proteque on 25 October 2006
Really like this style :) my fav from the party :) | User Comment Submitted by Mermaid on 22 October 2006 User Comment Submitted by Domey on 22 October 2006
All you need is black and white. And block-Romeo, the delegate for melancholy. 10/10 | User Comment Submitted by cba on 22 October 2006
My favorite demo of X-2006 ! | User Comment Submitted by ZZAP69 on 21 October 2006
Superb indeed! As always with Hollowman/Puterman demos : a good concept and good design. However, the concept sometimes spoils nice routines. Jaw-dropping routines are often very quickly displayed, while simple graphics gets a lot of the show time. This also goes for demos like "Postcards from STHLM" and "One million lightyears from Earth". | User Comment Submitted by tempest on 20 October 2006 User Comment Submitted by Joe on 18 October 2006
It's not really obvious what you did in this product, Oxidy: But since the internal problems we where faced with earlier this year... I'm glad that you are finally fit inside a general "thinking" inside of the group and not doing monsters and stuff... /James | User Comment Submitted by Higgie on 16 October 2006
hi... I just showed the demo to a colleague. he spontaneously noticed the lyrics were from the dire straits song "romeo & juliet" ;) | User Comment Submitted by Gildan Jondal on 15 October 2006
Another beautifully styled piece, I always look forward to FLT stuff | User Comment Submitted by Ninja on 15 October 2006
My personal favourite demo from X06. Great work! | User Comment Submitted by JackAsser on 15 October 2006
Top notch as always! And yes, gr8 with some oxidy coding again! ;) And yes! Great with physics going 3d on the c64.
But next time guys, please be finished a bit more early so that we can dance in the music compo together! :( | User Comment Submitted by chatGPZ on 15 October 2006
mmmh, after looking at it again, i think its a well deserved 4th place. i dig this style too, but demo is not only about style and story, imho. | User Comment Submitted by Style on 15 October 2006
sorry guys, this *really* deserved to rank higher - completely awesome demo, and one that Ill watch again in the future.
| User Comment Submitted by Burglar on 15 October 2006
really dig this, should indeed have been given a higher spot than 4th. | User Comment Submitted by Oswald on 15 October 2006
now this is one of the best scene poetry I've ever seen on any platform. What I'm missing is another manhood style demo which manages at the same time being funny self ironic and sad. :) | User Comment Submitted by Hate Bush on 15 October 2006
As I said to Hollowman at the party, he's good at making demos out of 'romantic stuff'. Couldn't decide if this one, Der Gummel or Wild Bunch is my favourite, and still can't.
Concerning the music, I made it back in 2001, covering an instrumental tune from the eighties. | User Comment Submitted by Skate on 15 October 2006
This demo has a great spirit. I was pretty sure that I'd see Romeo in the top three. | User Comment Submitted by TDJ on 15 October 2006
I'm torn between this one and the TWB demo for my x2006 favorite. Will need to check them both out again tomorrow .. | User Comment Submitted by Twoflower on 15 October 2006
This is a brilliant demo. Really brilliant. I want to see more stuff like this. I love and adore the use the vectorpeople vs people in reality. I love that much is in strict b/w hires. Somewhere deep inside, I wish I had made this. | User Comment Submitted by Deev on 14 October 2006
Really nice style, particularly the hires stuff. Deserved better than 4th IMO. | User Comment Submitted by jailbird on 14 October 2006
Excellent, emotional, lovely! | User Comment Submitted by Radiant on 14 October 2006
A nice routinely release, quite a bit of recycling but pleasurable anyway. Great to see Oxidy back to such activity after joining FLT. | User Comment Submitted by Scout on 14 October 2006
I <3 this demo!
My personal favourite from the X-party. | User Comment Submitted by Higgie on 14 October 2006
like the music! ... there is one moment in this demo where i saw tom jones in his underpants. ;) | User Comment Submitted by Trazan on 14 October 2006
So once again im falling in love, another top notch production by a team of devoted Kalsongdata-people.
Simple ideas, yet fulfilling the very needs for a brilliant demo.
Thumbs up, Apes! | User Comment Submitted by Motion on 14 October 2006
Another blinding concept! I love this shit *BIG* time guys! Love the guy swinging his hips at the end... but to be honest, I prefer the chick from Hollywood Strip Poker on the Amiga alot more! Hah! ;)
