Well, that was weird. :) Especially on the audio side of things. I like the smooth movement of everything and there were a couple of nice ideas here and there but I guess it's missing some consistent design. Something for next time maybe.

after reading the nfo i want to give a thumb down for the utter compression ratio bullshit :)
added on the 2007-05-07 10:57:34 by waffle waffle
Do the author talk about himself in 3rd person? I havent watched it yet. Would get a thumb up alone just because of the .nfo file...LOL

Hm... sounds quite familiar. I have a strange feeling that I heard something similar before. :D

What's written under 'about the intro' is just plain silly - either he doesn't know how to write in english or ... well ...

Optimus: chinese. *cough*.

Anyhow.

This is _AWESOME_.

I rarely saw such amount of heart and dedication in a product, and it REALLY doesn't come across as half bad. The colors were a bit strong, but overall it wasn't THAT bad, the music was strange, perhaps lack of knowledge in pro music tools, but i'm sure it will get better. i also really enjoyed the nods towards all the other products (fr08, six letter word, ...).

I like this product. It has such enthusiasm in it. Now it's time to push harder and take this to a next level :)
rulez added on the 2007-05-07 18:03:12 by Gargaj Gargaj
After some careful swinging between "WTF, dude" and "What Gargaj said" I'm decidedly on the latter side. Of course almost every aspect in this demo needs some improvement, but not only we all have seen way, WAY worse - also on the aforementioned "amount of heart and dedication" front this strikes so very hard that the thumb below this post is well deserved.

Congrats. Now evolve and don't ever lose that energy.
rulez added on the 2007-05-07 18:33:39 by kb_ kb_
Gargaj and kb summed my feelings pretty well. It's rare to see such enthusiasm and energy.

This feels like walking into a record store, picking up some obscure groups debut album, and giving it a spin. They may be forgotten, or not for the popular taste, or disbanded shortly after their first taste of things that might've been, but the music has soul, eyes on the horizon and that special "something".

I am already waiting for your next one.

And at the end of the day, we have yet another mediocre non-fr wz, devoid of any (own, non-fugly) aesthetics or ideas.

Unfortunately, that isn't going to render properly - I'm sorry about that.

Ignore the lamers who are dissing it. It _is_ wonderful. They aren't jealous, they're just blind.

Please keep working on demos. As you get more practice the ideas will flow more naturally.
I liked effort to complete this demo.
Indeed, trax is funny.
And color scheme ain't good...
(I think more color need in object.)
But, I feel something expected of the next prods.
Anyway, keep working on demos.
rulez added on the 2007-05-08 03:57:50 by got got
i didnt like all the fr influences, but i guess beeing the first demo and using wz makes for the first tests to redo fr intros.. hope the next prods will be more original. thumb up for beeing the first demo.
rulez added on the 2007-05-08 05:15:23 by psenough psenough
WTF?! But I enjoyed it plenty. I reckon all of the FR references (and the compression ratio bullshit in the scroller) was pretty funny, and it's always great to see a new style.

yepp, for an wz production : cool
ok music is really a little bit strange, but it is the style what u like...

not everybody can code own ideas, and then to use a demotool, to show the creativity, then i find that full ok. :)

rulez added on the 2007-05-08 16:15:11 by quickyman quickyman
Bragging about the compression ratio with all this text is ok when you actually did it yourself, otherwise spare us the egotrip about the 1GB of data.

I've finally managed to watch this prod. To be honest it's quite ugly and lacks nearly everything what a good demo/intro should have... but the HEART put into this little prod makes me unable to thumb it down! It's really amazing. :)

Cheers and keep it going. Nice first try.
rulez added on the 2007-05-08 16:52:45 by masterm masterm
one (if not THE) most 'WTF' demos ever made. I raise my hands, this is beyond my comprehension...
rulez added on the 2007-05-08 17:16:39 by Navis Navis
ok, so I'm slightly pragmatic about werkzeug-intros - it really needs to be wild/animation-level if you didn't actually code anything yourself.

This not an entirely bad intro though, but the impressive part is the ability to stuff this amount of content in there, and thats not your doing. Thumb-down for emokid-wierdness.

I see some piggies but I think this demo definitely deserves a thumb up or a thumb down. 'coz it's on the edge of both sides :) I liked it and I'll give it a thumb up but it was really really hard to decide...

But this is 2007, not 1997. Sorry...

Way weird, odd scene poetry, odd colour choices, even more odd tune, mostly okay but not something I'll watch again anytime soon :)

The actual download is down btw, if everyone has this, pls upload to scene.org or something.
added on the 2012-11-28 14:22:03 by msqrt msqrt
The download link in Gargaj's comment above still works.

Commendable effort for a first-time, self-made .werkkzeug intro. Has as much content as the Farbrausch classics, but of course the design feels like a Chinese knock-off, because, well, it is. :) The vivid colors give it a cheerful mood. Bad scenepoetry, but it doesn't get in the way.
