----------------------------------------
"GOK PRUTAL"
'GI DEMN I A 0RE!'
CONIC
----------------------------------------
intro:a cool conic picture with a dragon
flashes onto the screen...
a cool music is playing and on the
bottom of the screen is an all
border unexpanded scroller with
the standart commodore charset.
----------------------------------------
part1:a flexible zoom showing "conic"
with over it bouncing vectors
(like the bobs of panoramic d.)
in the sideborder.
under this all is a big and ugly
scroller going for too slow and
also restarts too early!
the music by drax is quite nice!
----------------------------------------
part2:here we got something new'n cool!
8 'burning' bobs are moving on the
screen with on top of it a 24
sprite multiplexer which also goes
in the upper border.
under the bobs is a very cool and
colourful "conic" logo with a
bouncing x-expanded spritescroll.
the tune fits the part very well!
----------------------------------------
part3:the music starts playing and some
info is given. now the screen
flashes and a picture appears.
it's a nice girl with some snake
in the woods. space will give you
the second picture. this one looks
like a photo of the pre-historical
age with some dinos and a vulcano.
space will give you the first picy
again. both pics were done by
mc-tech. to skip the part you've
to press arrow left.
----------------------------------------
part4:they called it colour-chaos.
and that's the best name for it!
120 eci colours move on the screen
in some fucking strange ways.
over this goes an 8-sprite dysp.
the music is strange,but pretty
nice!
----------------------------------------
part5:the end!
an hires upscroller which fills
the entire screen,with some cool
style and animated firework in the
background.
the music is very cool and a
typical 'the end'-tune.

this demo was dedicated to mc-tech and
partly ment as an anti-brutal demo.
the guys that realised this demo are
at the moment no members of the CONIC
clan anymore...

"BRUTALITY"
LIGHT
----------------------------------------
this demo won the first price at the
bonzai xmas party in års/denmark.
it sure is a cool one and here's the
review...
----------------------------------------
intro:a short text flash gives some crap
but then a cool brutality logo
pops from down of the screen to
the top.
now the usual light demo-intro
starts...
you know how it looks like.
the other new thing in it is the
really cool tune from bapalander!
----------------------------------------
part1:the part starts with a fli-scroll
and a counter in the downborder.
soon there are three fli-scrolls
on the screen with a nice charset
and several small logos in it.
then a 'light' logo gets pixeled
onto the screen with a 12 sprites
multiplexer over it (also in upper
border!) with different colours.
when the timer reaches zero,you
can press space and the logo will
be replaced by four four-coloured
fractals. space will give you the
logo back and the sequence starts
all over again.
a very nice tune by bluez is here
for the audial pleasure.
commodore key will leave part.
----------------------------------------
part2:the first raytracing part of this
demo is here. it counts its 97
animations in about 11 seconds and
then it will repeat them with
normal speed. the part is built
by a pretty big picture with above
it the usual strange,but cool
flamingo dycp. also on the screen
is a 32 (i think) sprites multi-
plexer. on the bottom of da screen
is the raytracer above some 3d
white-black rasters.
commodore key will switch between
the raytracer sinusses and while
calculating the dycp and multiplex
will dissappear.
the music fits the part very well!
----------------------------------------
part3:a very cool logo by scooby!
a 1x1 scroller with in the middle
a little circle-swing to give it
some style.
above the logo are realtime filled
animating shadow vectors with lots
of objects.
another great tune to finish the
part!
----------------------------------------
part4:a big fli techtech with under it
a big dysp and mega dycp over a
cool mountain chain bitmapper.
outrageous music by bapalander.
----------------------------------------
part5:a nice logo by scooby with a 1x1
scroller underneath.
a raytracer is on top of da screen
and is built up by 32 frames
pre-calculated on the amiga.
a nice tune by page is playing!
when you press space,the ball
bounces away in a lame way!
----------------------------------------
part6:2 balls in the downborder,bouncing
against eachother.
a small but great "light"-logo
plots on the screen,down is a 2x2
scroll with a very old charset.
the main effect of this last part
is a tv-vector. the box is real-
time while the objects are pre-
calculated.
another old thing in this part is
the music which was done by danko!

"ANIMO"
HOUSE DESIGNS
----------------------------------------
this demo won the first price at the
silicon party and i don't hope there
were any demos worse than this one as
that would really be a shame.
here you've got the review of the
'demo'...
----------------------------------------
intro:a caterpillar flashes onto the
screen. later a house designs logo
flashes around it.
then a 1x1 scroller appears with
some crashing letters.
after the text has finished,the
scroll flashes away and the logo
and caterpillar get black.
the tune is strange!!
----------------------------------------
part1:sprite stars scroll to the right.
underneath is waterplatform with a
dycp bouncing on it and at the end
the letters drop into the water.
after some time a nice house logo
appears.
the tune is also nice.
----------------------------------------
part2:after loading,a "loading" logo
swings on the screen with a nice
tune. i think this was ment to be
a loader,but for some reasons it
didn't turn out to be one.
after some time,it will go to the
next 'part'.
----------------------------------------
part3:a nice "the end"-picture is on the
screen and with that all the
visable action is said.
the only 'special' thing is the
pretty cool digi-tune.

5.1 out 10
----------------------------------------
the only thing that was a bit advanced
were the graphics!!
the coding,if there was any,was old
fashioned and nothing was hard to do
for any coder!
the DESIGN is so low due to the facts
that the 'loader' is not loading and
the endpart is only a picture with
music.
