The C64 demoscene never ceases to amaze me after all these years. It's so astounding how much these talented people can get out of that hardware.
0:10 Bitmap background layering in multi-color mode, with a shine effect using a single sprite Text are sprites. (21 possible characters per row, with 3 rows, 7 24x24 sprites.)
1:45 Using hi-res mode, math is used to calculate how big each block of color should be. Bitmap graphics are used here, as it requires a buffer. It only scales after the original image has stopped moving.
2:03 Just a simple multi-color mode image here.
2:40 This ball is a sprite.
2:49 Text is shown in bitmap multi-colour, where each column contains two rows of text placed at different Y positions, while also scrolling.
3:25 Sprites are rendered as particles before disappearing and drawing in the background.
3:54 This sphere is animating multiple frames, with the color cells changing to give the illusion of rotating donut.
4:28 Cubes are pre-rendered sprites.
4:55 That loop is also a pre-rendered array of sprites, using all 8 per scanline, with a maximum resolution of 192 out of 160 pixels wide.
5:43 Color cells inverting.
6:17 Basic image scroller while the next disk loads
7:57 Basic bubble sprites moving.
8:08 Can't explain that.
8:45 Text characters scrolling, with alternating color cells.
8:55 Static effect altering the framebuffer.
9:01 Fake Commodore boot screen made to appear smaller. Select few cells altered to make the cursor beep.
9:18 Rotation done with different sprites for each direction.
9:56 One image, or roughly 4 animating images, made to scroll, uses cells to show different colors for each thing. The whole screen is affected, as there's 3 scrollers at once.
10:55 3D rendered disk, using just text as a frame buffer.
11:32 Animation.
11:53 Same as 3:54 and 10:55, just the top half isn't affected.
12:22 Bitmap image uses 3 colors per cell to make way for scrolling columns.
13:05 Two images scrolling together.
14:03 Credits are sprites, this time, all 8 are used.
"Bitmap background layering in multi-color mode" - Please elaborate.
@@hanzohattori7058 It means that two backgrounds are layered together using software.
@@AnonymousFrogNG I guess the devil is in the details
8:08 Can't explain that.
Simple, bubbles are sprites, white, grey, and black colors are vertical strip in text mode slowly scrolled up, letters are inverted mask sprites moving faster up over grey stripe with wawes made by changing x position on every scan line. Of course, sprites are multiplicated vertically.
HOW is even half of these effects possible? Like how?! You guys are amazing. Your demo rocks. Scrollwars rocks!
Freaking amazing demo. I sometimes keep it running on my livingroom raspberry pi setup, and the soundtrack is perfect at subtle volume in the background. Can listen to it for hours on end.
+devjock Yeah... it's a great demo backed up with amazing audio
Coders have beautiful brains.
I love the picture of Leonard Cohen! And the music! And the bird! And the design! And the graphics! And everything in this demo! 💜💙👍
Great code
Great artwork
Great music
*MASTERPIECE*
I love this C64 Sound so much.....!!
Superb demo and superb music by Scarzix!
This is an awesome demo, excellent work!
The C64 was such a good computer in it's time. Great memories with that computer. Wonder how it would be like today if Commodore had survived.
There are more C64 in working conditions and still rocking today than Pentium 4s
simply amazing!
I LOVE C64 👍🥂🎩
Love the last tune, classic SID stuff
Trudne czasy tworzą silnych ludzi. Silni ludzie tworzą dobre czasy. Dobre czasy tworzą słabych ludzi i słabi ludzie tworzą trudne czasy...
Awesome.
Magical...
It's unfortunate that early color TVs didn't provide separate RGB or even Luma/Chroma inputs. Graphics tech might have advanced more quickly. NTSC/PAL/SECAM only inputs really held things back.
Europe has had SCART RGB since the 70's.
A-fucking-mazing!
yes
scrollers rock the highway and autobahn
The main thing is that there are no ghost paths.
Watching this is more fun than watching paint dry!
Here in 2024 and reminded just how good this is, even today, and how blown away I was 10+ years ago. 🫡
unbelievable to doing this on a 64er? - these Chips inside the Brotkasten must glow and melt?!? GREAT!
🤩
Holy shit what a demo! And the music ... Wow... Where i can find soundtrack?
Terminator
Check csdb.dk or the HVSC for the SID files.
you can also hear through the deepsid.chordian.net/ website
Who the hell downvoted this?
Slutty! :P Nah, real nice!
Where could I find it in order to play on a real c64?

Very good, but Booze Design - The Edge Of Disgrace beats you as the best.
