Damned impressive Commodore Plus/4 Demo

Post by Kenz »

Well, I guess the Plus/4 was underestimated... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commodore_Plus/4
All is lost.

yeah, that one rocked the Arok party! it was really good on the bigscreen. and the fact it's a plus/4 demo boosts amazeness even further... ^^
though, it reminded me a little bit of Wildfire by Coma (http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=1677).

The plus4 (the c16 version) was actually my first own computer (even if owned together with a friend.)

Horrible repetetive tune though but then I've never liked house/techno/trance stuff. ;)

Well, after Nine Fingers, it doesn't appeal that much to me, but nice to see what you can squeeze out of that machine.

Taken into account that Nine Fingers ran some 'slightly' bigger hardware I'd say this one's still pretty impressive. :D

Sure, but seeing the same thing just doesn't excite me really. That's not to diminish that it's probably an impressive technical feat.

I'm more into farbrausch. :)
