greetings from Stormtrooper of Death, former member of the Dutch High Tech Team. We were the best for Atari 8-bit in Holland. But the polish guys were better. hehe. Cheers. Nice to see Atari 8-bit demos, in the 21st century.....
With good reason. The people that designed this Atari designed the Amiga. The people that designed the ST, ironically enough seem to have been some of the people that designed the c64 Based on the teams that designed them, the related machines are: Atari VCS/2600, Atari 8 bit/5200, Amiga OCS, Atari Lynx This is all the more obvious when you see how the hardware works. TIA, GTIA + ANTIC (+Pokey), Agnus + Denise. Very few systems have anything equivalent to a display list processor, yet both the Atari 8 bit and the Amiga have such a thing. (so does the lynx). Copper lists are more flexible than ANTIC display lists, but still you can see the same general idea behind them. There is another prominent system that has a similar capability but was clearly designed by totally different people - the SNES. H-DMA is something of a halfway step between an Antic style display list and an Amiga style Copper list, but using different logic to either of them.

amazing. love this demo. i like atari 8 bit more daily. for an 8 bit it was way way ahead of its time.
This Demo is iconical for alot of first time effects on a 8-bit computer. The smooth fading without any tricks, the tunnel-puzzle, the rubics cube....
stunning
well done Hagbard64, thanks for sharing the video
Man, I love this.
A triumph.
Amazing
WHOA!
It is so amazing! It works with 65816 1.79mhz but it does not work with 3.58mhz or higher. Can you fix the bugs for higher speed processor?
I always believe that this was a small amiga and not ST's little brother.

Would be nice with 50fps capture
it is already
wow. youtube ruined it al...
