tft666 · 04-26-2012, 08:42 AM

A good year for Amiga at the main Demoscene event - REVISION.
Several demos and intros. All for classic Amiga.
Some of them however also runs (according to the coders) on MorphOS and AmigaOS4.

Amiga Demo:
1st Kioea by MadWizards (MOS & AOS4 compatible)
2nd Kakao by Elude (MOS. Don't know about AOS4)
3rd Teobstrrofarfeia by Focus Design
4th Resetkání 2012 invitation by AmiGanS
5th Bramborak by Artway & Horizontal Lamerz
6th Panda power by Desire

Amiga 64Kb Intro:
1st Hot dots by Focus Design & Unstable Label
2nd Quotation marks by Dekadence
3rd Leap of faith by Moods Plateau
4th Freeloader by depth

Two Amiga500 entries were also present in the Oldskool demo and 4Kb intro compo.

Boogietown by Ghostown & RNO (1st Oldskool demo)
Purple eggs by BooZombies (2nd Oldskool 4Kb)

Boogietown was by many the "Party winner" so be sure to atleast check that out

I must say I am unimpressed by this years Amiga demos at Revision 2012. Last year we had Human Traffic which was the bomb and loads of other good entries to explore all over youtube like Shake off the Dust (with that almost hypnotic soundtrack *thumbs up*) and Swansong to name another - even Boogietown at Revision 2012 was a bit like 'meh'. I do not mean to discredit their hard work, but this year we had had some random 'how to cook with mama' slideshow affair and a completely pointless panda.

I will be interested to see what Viva Amiga got in the way of footage from this years show...

Still one of my favourites from 2010: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FublQwmMYVk and not a cookbook or panda in sight.

Wow I have to give a few of these a go! Didnt know there were active demo parties in the world today still

Please excuse the noobish question....
Is it a rule that they start and finish demo development within the demo party time period, or can they come to the demo party with demos already created?
If the former, then it is quite incredible.

Nope

The exception is the "fast compos" where the whole entry have to be created within the specified time limit (and at the party place).

Yes

Typically demos take several months to produce. The winner demos for the bigger parties can take more than half a year of intensive work.

you clearly have no/little experience with the amiga demoscene the last 10years.
Kakao by Elude was FILLED with brand new effects. And was a mindblow.
The demos you refer to from last year are nice, but alot of recycling, and nothing near the skillfull coding as this years 2nd place.

I agree that Ikadalawampu is one of the ALL TIME best prods ever made on Classic Amiga. But we can't expect Blueberry to come up with these amazing things every year.
I know there was another Loonies Ghostown coop for Revision 2012, but they could not finish.
Boogietown was a fresh injection to a forgotten platform, Amiga 500, with amazing gfx and some nice effects and a kickass tune.

So I totally disagree your opinion. And who cares about the last placers? Ofcourse there will be "compo fillers" at parties. People just having fun making a prod to contribute to the compos. I think it is a good thing. Better with something than nothing at all.
