In Color by Darklite and Offence [zx spectrum 128]

Our ZX Spectrum 128 demo released at Revision 2023 which ended up winning the oldschool demo competition.
Captured from a ZX Spectrum 128 with an ZX-AY using OSSC and Elgato HD60 Pro.

Shows some effects I never thought was possible on the Speccy. Nicely designed too!

[@AnnatarTheMaia]

Which effects did you think weren't possible?

[@Archimedes75009]

Wonderfully coded.
Great tune.
The speccy scene will never cease to amaze us ...

[@ejazmoghul5286]

This is the devil's work! It is beyond the possibility of us mere mortals. Damn you.

[@Tetsujinfr]

Amazing demo, great soundtrack too. Did know you could get as much out of a zx spectrum 🤯

[@joserodellastudela7265]

Суперррр!

[@nicktaylor8032]

Cool shit brother

[@AndreasRohdin-MrGamer]

I didn't know the Spectrum was capable of stereo. Freaking awesome tune BTW!

[@neonstz]

The standard 128k models do not support stereo, but it is possible with a hardware modification or simply by using an external AY hardware such as the ZX-AY.

[@b0rg1010]

Soo clean and tight. Lovely 😍

That was insane , Congratulations on a deserved win.
I'd equally like to see you and the team have a few beers and talk about the programming behind some of those effects :-)

[@mrpositronia]

[@orionjob3906]

Very good awesome

[@retrogameplays_]

It's spectacular.

[@ianfrancis3605]

Wow seems apt. ❤

[@PersistenceOfVisionAtari]

Wow, I stopped coding in asm on the ZX Speccy 40 years ago and could never code things that are in this demo

[@atornblad]

Same! I kinda understand how things are done, but I couldn't come up with the solution myself...

[@laimexx]

1:24 never seen such scrolling before. Cool

[@unpunnyfuns]

herre jemini!

[@MurrayDagostino]

Good job, how you did effects without color clashing is beyond me.

[@AnnatarTheMaia]

They used palette color cycling, and the stars at the end are carefully spaced apart so as not to cause a color clash. Lots of cheap tricks used to great effect.

[@neonstz]

@@AnnatarTheMaia I'm not sure what you put in color cycling, but I can tell you that it is probably not as simple as you think it is.

[@AnnatarTheMaia]

@@neonstz do tell...

[@ULTRAWEN7]

Крутое демо

[@DisectUK]

Was expecting colour clashing big time. What hardware variation is this running on?
Loved the demo regardless.

[@neonstz]

This runs on all ZX Spectrum 128 models and from today also the Pentagon 128. All loading is done before the demo starts.

[@DisectUK]

@@neonstz loved the demo and wished the games I played back then had some of the attributes you used in the demo.

[@zxspectrum16K69]

Ulax vdac2 spectra ula+ zx hdmi?

[@zxspectrum16K69]

What about slapfight alcon2020 how do you add sprites on top or do you need vdac2 and zx evo?

[@PHiAX]

I think the part from 4:53 onward i have to type in later to prove i'm not a robot right?

[@neonstz]

:D

[@sa3270]

EPILEPSY WARNING

[@jossgower]

Impressive.. hard to believe this is not run at a faster mhz though .. if its legit hats off to you.

[@neonstz]

This runs on a standard 128. You can download the tap file and try for yourself.

[@i93sme]

Dizzy forever 😂

[@defininito]

Absolute masterpiece
