This is a really neat demo. I am impressed with what people can come up with and then share! I watched a YouTube of the Amiga compilation demos (9 of them I think) and was really impressed with what people do. These events are great and shows how many of us still play with our old machines and not just collect them… Thank you for sharing -Ryan

Lots of neat demos at the revision competition over the weekend. I caught a bit of the livestream near the end.
A few good Amiga demos that target A500 512kb + 512kb OCS, no accelerators.
Razor 1911 stole the PC demo competition with this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dybkLM-1eQo
Killer throwback PC demo dialup days and all that. It looks better running on a real PC (Windows 10/11, doesn't work with Intel integreated you need a GPU I think? Also windows says it's a virus you need to whitelist it.) The compression of the youtube video looses that some of the pixels are ascii art at really hi res and stuff.
Also they chopped it at the end, it's got a lot of scroll on the real one but they cut it on the livestream.
There was some other good PC demos and a lot of stuff showing up in random languages and strange hardware.
