Threeve 100%!
Posted by Luca on 2008-02-29
ThreeveI love this first Plus/4 Bauknecht's prod so much, and it surely deserves a call more.

Yes, the short (but painful, argh!) delay time is now finished: the final, 100% working kicking and complete version of Threeve demo is out, and you will enjoy it so much. It's improved in the general design, has a cleaner plasma and Sire's tune kicks aaaarses!

Visit the BKN's official homepage to know more about these damn cool german sceners and their memorable productions. They also recorded a video of the demo, and in a very short time, we'll enjoy the TED tune as a standalone prg.
Run and vote for it!

Posted by Luca on 2008-02-27
One Spotted LadybirdOxyron Party means not only 8bit demos competition, but 8bit graphics competition too!

Let's examine the graphics entered at the party, and a Plus/4 one pops out: Chronos takes ACW's tag to Flensburg, joining the 8bit graphics compo with One Spotted Ladybird. His entry has been ranked 9th.

Good job, Tamás, glad to see you again working in MCM too! We're looking forward for more from you!


Plus/4 Winners at Oxyron Party 2008!
Posted by Luca on 2008-02-24
HáziasanYes, yes, yes! It begins to look like an INCREDIBLE 2008!

Oxyron Party 2008 have been held in Flensburg, northern Germany: music, fun, beer, friendship and all the rest, plus several multiplatform competitions.
The 8bit competition involved 12 great demos, and 2 of those were for our beloved black box. Once again, the Plus/4 productions have been ranked in the higher places, we're starting to get used to this, hope the trend will continue then!

ThreeveWho did arrive in the 2nd place, behind a winning DTV production? Yes, you got it because he has a habit about higher compo's rankings: fighting against his life and his job, Degauss/TEK had success in presenting a little but technically innovative dentro, called Háziasan.
He captivated the audience's eyes, senses and hearts with a FAST interference effect, and an innovative dance of zoom4bobs! Congratulation for the nth time pal, you rocked and rocked again!

Hey wait, wait a moment, who are they? They arrived 3rd and this is they very first code effort on Plus/4! Ah..ah...ah ok understood! They were cool just before, because they are Bauknecht!
Bauknecht take in the Plus/4 scene a wind of change, because of the very original design, a mitteleuropean style with soft colours and isometric elements. The transitions are typical of a PC demo, revealing their origin. But let's see the code: great! In their very first appearance, they aimed to very tough targets, with brilliant results. Useless to talk about any single effect, let's watch it directly!
The best news: they announce a Plus/4 line, and now we have to retain drool now. Welcome in the Plus/4 scene, Mad Sire and Decca, you've come in taking a very big present for all of us!

Disfunctional Attitudes!
Posted by Csabo on 2008-02-11
Disfunctional AttitudesCanadian Society Autonom Basic Overflow brings you news of a fresh release: Disfunctional Attitudes from ACW is here! (To get the reference, be sure to watch the demo all the way through!) It's a trackmo coded by Csio, released separately because of the "anti-sidcard" rules of the Oxyron party. At any rate, faithful followers of the demo scene will be happy to watch another quality production. Enjoy!


BusoMan!!
Posted by Luca on 2008-02-05
Busoman Party DemoWha...what the heck is this, now?
Ewww...a party call, an invintro? No no, maybe it could be a joke demo, a fake demo...a fLake demo! And what's a BusoMan? A hungarian yeti? A demoparty animal?

Oh well, we don't care. Strange, weird or not, this is disconcerting, funny, unpretentious, and most of all this is not vapourware! Hence, we like it.
Thanks ACW for this BusoMan Party Demo, this is like a far echo of something incoming in the near future.
