farbrauch does it again.
I have a recommended setup but it was still sluggish (with all the options on)

- recommended:
  * core2duo or athlon x2 with >=2.4ghz
  * 1024mb ram
  * geforce 7600/radeon x1600 or better with 256mb vram

amazing to see a 177kb demo make use of 1gb of ram ? But yeah, great demo ...

I love fr (probably one of my personal top three PC groups) but this simply blew me away. Amazing.

That C64 Desert Dream remake was pretty amazing, true, but it still is that: a remake.

It'll probably win the C64 democompo, however :-)

LOL, yeah, Desert Dream was truly teh OMGWTFz0rz of its day... :-) Still pretty impressive for a bare A500 demo!

Anyhow, stuff like this amazes me. I don't understand it (the coding aspect), so to me it's pure wizardry.

EDIT -- DOH! It's for the C64... that's a shocker. I'll have to check it out.
