@^@f00@t1     CAT demo by Silents/Crionics
@t4
  This is the first real demo I've seen
which  was  made  for  money.  It is no
surprise  that  CCK wanted the creators
of the best demo ever to make an advert
demo  for  them.  It's easy to see that
this  demo  was  made  for money.  Even
though the design is great (as usual!),
and  the  coding  is OK aswell, you can
see   that   SI/CR   haven't   been  as
enthusiastic  about this, as they where
about  HARDWIRED.  I think that The Spy
has  taken some of his old source disks
(beginning from 1990) and used a few of
the  medium good routines.  Some of the
new  people  on  the scene might think,
that  e.g  the dotcarpet is a new idea.
Actually  it  was  done  the first time
back  in  the autumn 1990.  Most of the
other  routines  have  seen their first
light  ages  ago  aswell.   It is quite
obvious that this is far below what The
@^Spy can do when he really puts his mind
to it, but you can not expect him to be
too  enthusiastic  when he's not coding
for  any  reason but the money (I would
certainly   show  the  same  amount  of
energy).   The  design is ofcourse what
lifts this demo above the deep stinking
swamp called average.  What ever Mikael
Balle  and Jesper Kyd touches, it turns
to  gold.   At least it always turn out
looking great.  The music is very good,
even  though  it's a bit boring.  There
aren't many new ideas in this demo, but
the design once again contains some new
style   ideas   which  should  also  be
rewarded in the ideas category.
