Party Reports

Report on Amiga Expo

It was early in the morning (4:25 AM to be exact) as my alarm clock radio roughly woke me (Majestic) up. Following a quick breakfast I went to pick up Com. As I entered his house he was watching Video (at 5:15 AM!). Anyway, we both then drove to the railway station in Basel (Switzerland). A four hour railway ride awaited us. Would it be worth it? 
Around 11 o'clock we arrived in K]ln. A long queue at the "Change Booth" extended the time before entering the Expo. The Expo was about 20 minutes (by

Review on Laser Light

2. Name: Laser demo 
   Group: Scoopex 
   2 Parts 
 
Yeah, Scoopex strikes again. This time it's again a new production from the famous coders Shark The Master. Some messages are writing not like a boring scroll, but like a computer space (Hope you'll understand..). 
The message is very funny. The second part is another vector demo. But the objects are drawn by a laser. It's really fantastic! 
  I like:       80 % 
  Gfx:          69 % (Only vector) 
  Sound:        91 % 
  Animation:    81 %

Review on Experiment

4. Name: Crusaders Music Disk 
   Group: Crusaders 
   2 parts 
Dr.Awesome, the famous musician is back with his really great sounds. The Crusaders made a new music disks with better music and better coding. In the beginning of the demo a circle scroll, it's a very cool, but it's just the loader. 
Ouah! After pressing the rat, a great purple planet is moving on the screen with a really great voice. (Note that the purple planet was drawn by Dr.C  of Red Sector.) and after the voice has finished,

Review on Seven Sins

3. Name: First Demo From Finland 
   Group: Scoopex 
   A lot of parts 
 
Scoopex 'Generations Ahead' has got a new finland Division. They made their first demo. When I loaded it (from a Brainstorm pack of coz') I was very  surprised by the quality of this demo. It contains fantastic animations. It's the best demo made on Amiga. The music is really cool. The demo contains a lots of parts including: New style of scroll, sine, 3D bobs (no bore), 3D filled vecs, etc. 
  I like:       99 %

Review on Multidemo

1. Name: Beast Demo 
   Group: Animate 
   3 Parts 
Yeah, this demo is a really cool one. We could see 3 great parts. The first one is coded by the famous Dr.Dma. It looks simply, but it's really great with big bobs. We recognize the coding style of Dr.Dma. 
In the second part, it's again a Dr.Dma. part, but this time with great equalizers made with Copper. I have never seen this style of equalizer before and at the top of the screen, we could see a sin scroll. 
The third part is really great. I
