    This is hands down the most impressive technical A500 demo I have ever seen. Mind blown.

    1985 Amiga 1000 with RAM expansion runs this at full speed. 36 years old. Thats like an 80 year old bench pressing 200kg.

    Perfect OCS/ECS Amiga Demo, it's look like an AGA Demo on an Amiga 500
    10/10 Points. Technical impressive A500 Demo. I Love it.

      Perfect OCS/ECS demos are "Hardwired" and "Desert Dream"; this demo is not it. Sorry. No wait, actually I'm not sorry.

    i cant believe that this runs on an actual normal stock amiga 500 with 1mb of ram!
    this has to be with an turbo card/faster cpu or something! my mind simply cant accept it! :)
    its like the optimatization level of a modern c64 demo .. im freaking blown away and apart and to dust! wow!
    congratz guys! 6:40 how you guys used the stenzil vectors to generate the "mirroring" is geniuz level! im amazed!

      Actually it isn't: there are far more impressive Amiga demos, like for instance Bomb's "Motion Origin 2", or Unique's "Origin Part 3" (which can compete feature-for-feature with any contemporary PC bucket demo), or Oxygene's "Vision", or Capsule's "Phase One", or The Black Lotus' "Captured Dreams", or Darkage's "Neo", or The Black Lotus' "Starstruck"... The effects in this demo have been done before, people just forgot (or didn't have a clue in the first place).

    Amazing OCS flex. What an incredible command of the machine The Electronic Knights are demonstrating here. Truly a DEMO in the best sense of the word.
    Loving the stencil "reflections", so convincing and slick, especially on the platonic solids. The great choice of envionments and colors just adds to the effect.
    The torus later in the demo just has me "ok I thought I had a good guess how they did it, and it was ingenious, but now I am at a complete loss again."
    6:00 proves PS1 can go eat a bag of floppies. Ok, now I am just nostalgic and salty.
    Edit: The motion blur in 4:00 is also a huge wtf, I just realized. WOW!!!
