ZX Spectrum: Binary Love (Demo, Digital Reality, 1997) Posted by: j00ceuk
Video duration: 288 seconds A ZX Spectrum scene demo, intended for russian hardware (e.g. Pentagon, Scorpion). One of the best! Related: demo, pentagon, scene, scorpion, spectrum, zx |

ZX Spectrum: Power Up (Demo, Megacode/Extreme, 1997, reenc) Posted by: j00ceuk
Video duration: 507 seconds (re-encoded to fix audio issues) Getting this demo working proved incredibly difficult: for some reason, none of the tape images work. I did manage to dig out a disk image from demotopia however, and the results are mindblowing: Amiga style swirlies, dot patterns, plasma, FMV, lighting effects: this has pretty much got it all. Well worth a look! Related: amiga, cgi, computer, demo, pentagon, scene, scorpion, spectrum, zx |

ZX Spectrum: Rage (Scene Demo, X-Trade Group, 1997) Posted by: j00ceuk
Video duration: 313 seconds A very impressive demo. A lot of dot patterns, colour-cycling and fire effects, plus some full-screen border manipulation which beggers belief (though you need a Pentagon 128 (or emulation thereof) for it to work properly).

ZX Spectrum: Trapdoor walkthrough (1987, 48k, Don Priestly) Posted by: j00ceuk
Video duration: 598 seconds Trapdoor for the ZX Spectrum was a surprisingly good (if difficult) arcade adventure featuring large coloured sprites. This is a complete walkthrough - though bear in mind that it's been heavily edited (and sped up by about 20%) to fit into YT's 10-minute limit! The soundtrack borrows from the original cartoon and uses free samples taken from the web - credits given in the intro. Enjoy!

ZX Spectrum: Vibrations (Dream Team, 1996, demo) Posted by: j00ceuk
Video duration: 309 seconds Vibrations for the ZX Spectrum - another impressive demo for the lil' 8-bit machine! I've trimmed this one down quite a bit: there was a large chunk of text at the beginning and the end sequence is fairly long and repetitive...

MoViT - MoV - PC Demo Scene Posted by: j00ceuk
Video duration: 583 seconds One of my favorite demos - rather than just being a set of individual effects, it has a plot (of sorts) which ties the entire thing together. Released in 2000, to some controversy, as it re-used an existing MOD tune. This didn't stop it from winning first place at the VIP2 party, however! Related: 2000, cyborg, demo, robot, scene |

ZX Spectrum: Phrenetic (demo, FST/DST, 1997) Posted by: j00ceuk
Video duration: 337 seconds A fairly impressive Amiga-style demo, with lots of effects and 2 bitmaps packed into just 24k. The demo is a bit too ambitious when it comes to the multi-colour sections (at least under emulation), but overall it's pretty impressive!

ZX Spectrum: The Israeli Team (1989, demo) v2 Posted by: j00ceuk
Video duration: 559 seconds A longer version of the Israeli Team demo, which showcases the "loading-animation" aspects of the demo - the ZX Spectrum generally had limited CPU available when loading data, so this was quite a feat, though it also extended the loading time to over ten minutes... Sadly, this means that I've had to trim things a bit - and the re-encoding has lost a bit more quality. C'est la vie! Related: cgi, computer, demo, scene, spectrum, zx |

ZX Spectrum: Action demo (Megacode, 1996) Posted by: j00ceuk
Video duration: 158 seconds A scene demo released for the ZX Spectrum in 1996, by Megacode. One of my favorites:) Runs on a standard UK 128k spectrum, but intended for higher-spec clones (e.g. the Pentagon). Related: demo, pentagon, scene, spectrum, zx |

ZX Spectrum: The Cube (Demo, TGM Crew, 1997) Posted by: j00ceuk
Video duration: 397 seconds Competent, but nothing too exciting: the eponymous cube is reasonably nice, but displayed for too long. The rest of the demo is pretty standard fare, and the credits/greets also hang around for too long! Related: cgi, computer, demo, pentagon, scene, scorpion, spectrum, zx |
