"Techno Ecstacy" by Sonic @t4 Sonic are back with yet another single file demo. This time it's filled with action, the routines are blasted off in a very high tempo, preventing you from becomming bored at any time. The coding in this demo proves that Sonic has some really hardcore coders, as the routines in this demo (fast dot writer, lightsourced glenz, vectors with a plasma-like pattern on top of it, 3D starfield etc.) are of a very high standard, all in all this is without doubt the best aspect of the demo. There isn't a large amount of graphics to be found in this demo, but what's there is acceptable indeed. Being a bit of a techno raver myself I found the music instantly appealing, @^ but at a certain time a "lead" (sort of) ruins the atmosphere, making it sound somewhat amateurish. The ideas are not new but they are presented in a very attractive way. The design varries a little from the writer-screen looking rather dated to, well, all the other parts looking very nice and fresh. Overall it's a very good demo. @ta --------------- Ratings -------------- Coding: 87% Graphics: 78% Music: 73% Idea: 70% Design: 80% Overall: 84% --------------- Ratings --------------
