This is my last FreeBASIC prod, it's all C++ now.

Hope you like it!

Just wondering if this is in 320 X 240 mode as I can't run it on the lappy.. Any chance of a windowed version? :) I'd love to see this.

Nick, it's 512x384 resolution.

If ya want I can email you the windowed version...it would feel "dirty" releasing it (the windowed version is larger than 64k ;) )

I got the windowed version today, thanks for sending it to me Jake. I didn't really know what to expect when I ran it and I really enjoyed it.
It ran beautifully smooth, the sync to music is great, the engine is nice and smooth and I love the idea of the cubes that stretch into lines, that was very cool, as was the morphing shape surrounded by an expanded wireframe.
Liked the music too.

Seeing a 64kb from you of this quality makes me very happy. You did well to get a freebasic intro to 5th place at TUM. 64kb has to be the most competitive category in a demo comp afaic. You've  done brilliantly there Jake. Congratulations :) +++ Karma.

Glad you guys like it!

Too bad my music was a $21 by Orion rip-off ;)

What happened with the music (everyone's making up stories at Pouet) is that I'd downloaded $21 about 2 weeks before I made this intro. When I did the music I thought it was original; just made a music from a tune in my head. Then after it was sent to Waffle to go to tUM, I went watching random demos on my machine, and I saw $21 once again.

So the truth is, I thought it was original when I wrote it, and found it wasn't afterwords.

Sorry.

That's Pouet for you. Still, you've had some nice comments there too so I wouldn't worry about it.
