I love it all! Especially the art style of the image at @5:50. The music is super catchy.

Sorry to be dropping so many comments, but I just love this demo so much… I am extremely curious how they did the melody for the segment at 5:50. Maybe my ears are playing tricks on me this late at night but there’s gotta be something clever going on with the instruments here throughout this demo… it seems every instrument starts off like a SID and then has these flourishes and details that push it up to sounding like it belongs on a Mega Drive. Whatever the secret is, it’s great!

Trailer Park Boys tribute? :P
