Is there a hd-version of Desert Dreams of Kefrens ??


As far as i know there was never a HD version of it made, Not really a bad thing (if using a real AGA machine) as only 2 disks, plus as far as i remember it needed some kickdown when used on AGA machines.

Fantastic demo though, easily in my top 3 favs.

@ Coder

Yeah lets hope we will see some good stuff for OS4  from the demo scene, that is one of the things i look forward to.

Wishfull thinking maybe but id love to see the old masters come back to the Amiga... Kefrens, Fairlight/Virtual Dreams, Scoopex, Spaceballs, Sanity etc etc

@ z5

 I agree with you that there has been some nice demos from '95 onwards, i was just mainly pointing out the guys in the Amiga demo scene when the Amiga was the main demo scene tool, all these guys done some great things for it back then and i know it helped push  sales of the amiga back then to, i was one of them :-)

As for more recent, yeah, The Black Lotus guys done some great stuff, on the PPC side of things Mankinds  "Deathtrail" is just amazing.

To me its not just the visuals that make the demo, its  everything combined and originalty, Amiga had that in buckets.
I'm a sucker though  for fast paced  visuals with the Audio synced, Remember Technological Death,SOTA,Extension or Acid demo ? :-D

Looking at the more recent demos on PC, those big demos, 90% of them for me our watch once only productions.
Tis good to see though that Fairlight our still doing quality productions even if it isnt on our beloved Amiga, check out Tatsu.

Great website btw z5, keep the good work up :-)
