 Did you think that his little programme from back in October was the only thing gerliczer was planning to haunt you with this year? You were almost right. But unfortunately, your luck has run out. After two days of fretting, swearing and name calling he managed to hunt down and eliminate the pesky bug blocking the release. Please, welcome with the well-deserved tedium his new intro: Boring Stuff.

I think it's neat  Sure, there's always room for improvement, but (thankfully) the demo doesn't live up to its name!

I like it! Especially those moving triangles reminded me the old Amiga pinball game effect, nice one! Please do more in 2024!

What Murphy said. I enjoyed it very much, and even if it's a small prod, it satisfies my hunger for demo-like releases for now. It's a good thing that we have so many things going on game-wise, but I miss the demos.

Indeed a very good example of that effect. Wait, why don't we add it as a real example in the Tech-Tech's definition? Done!

Thank you all guys! I'm glad that some parts of it you liked.
@Luca: I can't promise anything but I'm happy for you. And I never thought something I made could make its way into the Encyclopedia as an illustration. Wow. An honour. 
@Murphy and BSZ: Thanks guys but it is only a bog standard Tech-Tech effect. The only thing making it somewhat different from other implementations is my willingness to spend resources on $FF13 like crazy. And my lack of imagination, unfortunately, didn't do any justice to it in the movement patterns department. 
@Lavina: You know what they say. Make a demo about it.

@gerliczer reading your notes about the demo, I've been seized by a doubt, so I checked: I've never added the little code which allows the music to regularly play both on PAL and NTSC at the right speed (which is basically: miss one JMP player at every 5 frames if NTSC is on) which i used to implement in any other release. Forgetfulness, fixed, thank you.
