Salinga: Many people seem to have this problem on Windows. A driver update has usually worked, so u could try that.

Style.

I like it :)

(Not sure why it did not exit, had to kill it, space, escape or mouse click did nothing, did I miss something?)

Great soundtrack! But really, a demo must exit on ESC.

I'd really like to have the soundtrack, just without the noise :) pretty please?

yeah so the demo can be terminated with the key 'q', which stands for 'quit'.
added on the 2015-02-02 00:06:38 by histack histack
So, it's not the 'e' key, which stand for 'exit', the 't' key, which stand for 'terminate', the 'a' key, which strand for 'abort', the 'c' key, which stands for 'cancel', the 'h' key, which stands 'halt', the 's' key, which stands for 'stop', the 'd' key, which stands for 'discontinue', the 'l' key, which stands for 'leave', the "b" key, which stand for "break', the 'f' key, which stands for 'finish', the 'k' key, which stand for 'kill'?

It's nice to know that it's none of them, not even the standard key to quit since it was invented by Bob Bemer in 1960, the ***ESCAPE*** key! lol ;)

added on the 2015-02-02 02:57:56 by ramon ramon
I just get a blank "TV" screen with the music playing, cap it pls.

ps. the 'q' to quit is ingenious.

pps. the vhs noise is what _makes_ the soundtrack.

Cool concept but could have used a bit more work.
I like how the music really sounds like something from a 80's infomercial. An obvious thumb up!
rulez added on the 2015-02-02 10:07:00 by velo velo
Yeah, music is very good imho. It's like business funk on degraded VHS.
added on the 2015-02-02 10:09:15 by leGend leGend
Ooooh, that style.
What maali said. Love the music and the concept and some of the scenes, but overall it could've had more cheese to it. And maybe a bit more salt to the cheese.
added on the 2015-02-02 10:24:10 by Preacher Preacher
Nice style, great music.
rulez added on the 2015-02-02 10:36:09 by Daddy Freddy Daddy Freddy
Cute one, very well executed music. It's too bad you broke off the 80s aesthetic with the standard Photoshop blending effect logo and demo-overalys which loooked a lot more 1998 than 1985. Still definite thumbs up.
rulez added on the 2015-02-02 10:46:31 by break break
looks nice, sounds cool
rulez added on the 2015-02-02 12:15:24 by aki aki
totally love it!

the CRT emulation is different than mine because you focused more on the VHS poor quality than the screen, but it render really fine :D

really nice music too!
rulez added on the 2015-02-02 12:20:55 by rez rez
Loved it! Best fake-VHS visuals I've seen in a executable.
rulez added on the 2015-02-02 12:49:41 by tFt tFt
The one thing that really bugs me here is the use of VHS tracking glitches as scene transitions - a creator in 1985 wouldn't have done that as a design choice, so it breaks the illusion that we're watching an authentic video from an alternate universe (where a mid-80s audience would have been shitting themselves at the futuristic visuals)...

Nitpicking aside... this is a gorgeous bit of kitsch. The music is absolutely spot on.

rulez added on the 2015-02-02 18:59:26 by Virgill Virgill
I actually like this concept, and the music is great, but it lacks finesse that makes me actually believe in the concept and commit to it. The fonts for example: too modern, too crisp. It's "a small thing", but it breaks the illusion for me.

It's the future, but now!
rulez added on the 2015-02-02 19:46:08 by Saga Musix Saga Musix
Love the idea as well as the execution. Sure there are some nits to pick (the music detuning is almost a little too much/too often for my taste), but there are so many more things done right -- e.g. the font in the CRYSTALCIPHER screen was spot-on!

This is a thumb from the past, from when I had a NVIDIA card - as ATI only makes a minimalism remix of this prod.
Idea is cool, along with the tune <3

It felt quite authentic to me. Made me watch old Urheiluruutu's so at least something was done right.
rulez added on the 2015-02-07 23:13:57 by Serpent Serpent
For that felling (music and gfx-wise) that it was recorded from an 80s video tape
rulez added on the 2015-02-07 23:26:54 by Triace Triace
Great! The rare case where glitches are handy and are just the same as they must be. The rest of the compo was just filled with noise without purpose.

What a wonderful demo! Love the concept, the fitting music, the details, it's fantastic! Only thing I didn't like was the last scene, which stood out and didn't fit to the rest. But that's a minor quibble.

Lovely!

Really like this demo, though I'm not into vaporwave. Works perfectly on Wine 1.9.20 on Linux. And a non-limited, non-distorted version of the soundtrack would be wonderful, completely agree with TomoAlien.
