I am impressed by his commitment when composing and adjusting the music to the demo design. His suggestions were very helpful and improved the demo design. Caro - thanks for your review and the good ideas/suggestions. You still remember and understand the old realtime 3D creation techniques! :) Decrunch party organizers - thanks for organizing a demoscene party in my city! This is very comfortable for me. :) MorphOS Team (www.morphos-team.net) - thank you for developing my favourite Amiga-like operating system. Thanks to Krashan for creating and MOS Team for development of Reggae multimedia framework - great successor of Amiga datatypes mechanism which plays sound in my engine (and in this demo). Greeting to all admins and users of my favourite places in the Internet: ppa.pl exec.pl morph.zone morphos.pl www.meta-morphos.org www.morphos-storage.net www.pouet.net demozoo.org www.amigaone.pl www.amigans.net atarionline.pl www.pixelretroshop.pl gikme.pl Greetings to all real and happy users of: MorphOS, AmigaOS4, AROS and... Amiga Classic :) ------------------------------ A few words from Skyrunner: Hi folks! Doing the music for Morphobia was fun. At first MDW asked me on Soundcloud if I had a spare piece of music for his demo. I had not. But I was willing to do a new soundtrack from scratch after I saw an early preview of the demo. When I saw the car model, I instantly decided to do a bit of a Synthwave track for the demo. I hope you like what we did here. =) Keep an eye open for the second project I'm working on. It is the soundtrack for a classic Jump'n Run game called "AmiRun" coded and designed by JustEpyx^TSA. It will be a fun game, heavily loaded with eastereggs all over the place. =) If all goes as planned it will be released at the Novoque in August 2020. Look for it in the stream. Last but not least I would be happy if you make a visit to my soundcloud page: soundcloud.com/skyrunner_bc Cheers and greetings to all of you! =D <3 ------------------------------ A few (un)interesting facts about the Morphobia... 80 butterflies were involved in the creation of this production. No butterflies were harmed in the making of this demo. Devices used for the creation of the demo: - PowerBook G4 with MorphOS 3.13, - MacBook Pro mid 2012 with macOS 10.15, - iPhone 8 with iOS 13, - iPad mini 2 with iOS 12. All 3D graphics (objects, scenes, animations) were created with Blender 2.79b for macOS and exported to internal formats of the engine using Encore's plugins for Blender. 2D graphics created with: - Pixelmator Pro, Affinity Designer for macOS, - ImageFX, ArtEffect, TVPaint for AmigaOS/MorphOS. Coded in C/C++ with: - Flow Development Studio with GCC 8 on MorphOS, - Xcode 11 on macOS. The demo uses the Encore Engine 4.2.0 which has been under development by MDW since 2006. It is a very simple and lightweight engine which allows to create demos/games for various platforms. However the main targets are new Amiga-like platforms (called AmigaNG): AmigaOS4, MorphOS, AROS. The current version of the Encore Engine requires simple C++ and an old version of OpenGL (fixed pipeline without shaders support). These requirements could be changed in the future. It depends on features of OpenGL implementations for supported platforms (especially: MorphOS, AmigaOS4, AROS). See you in our next productions...
