Our new C64-demo Dansain was presented at the Datastorm copy party last weekend. It’s a pirate story told in text graphics, tightly integrated with the audio. There’s explosions and sloths, boats and bars, sex and dancing – everything you need! For now there’s no video, but I’ll post it soon enough.
It received some very good criticism at the party. Good to get applauses and screams from an audience that appreciates the effort and the format. Quite different to pop/art where results & concept is so dominant.
On the other hand, the aesthetic conservatism of the scene is not exactly fresh, lol. But I guess it’s what keeps it together. All the way to its death! Oh well, enjoy the demo. It was very much inspired by Lennart Hellsing.
