wheeeee! \o/
another masterpiece of demo art by the king of the playground himself !
the words are not enough to describe how nice is that little cute invitro, the code is great, the 4mat's music is georgous, and the graphics nicely refreshing and well done :)
I can simply sum up by an oldsk00l:
"EQUINOX RULEZ !"

Brilliant to the core.
Well crafted.

very very nice.
the only thing i didnt like was the 4 quater layout of the screen throughout the whole intro. but what was to be seen there was neat. :)

Really nice. I think I am going to be watching this a lot, in fact I love it. This is a thing of real beauty, Thank you! <3
I don't need to download another demo all year now, this is it for me same as SOTA 2004, Same as Kings of the playground..
Just wish you'd release something more often :-P It was worth the wait though.

Blocks shown on the screenshot remain black while falling for me. Fast enough on my not-so-old laptop, but I wouldn't say it's "smooth" - ah well, I'll have to try it on some real hardware... As usual, great design, nice music. Loved the oldskool, ST-like unpacking effect, btw. So 80's. ;)
nice done... i like it! :)
@shockwave... because they release not often it rules all the time ... ;) spending more time in a production = ruler..! :)

YOU BRING BACK THE ONLY DEMO ART!!! :D
this really rockZ
just awesome
rocks!
Oooooh, this is beautifully executed.
Could only have wished for a more "saying" chiptune. This one doesn't really speak to me, so to say...

"March 2004"? :)
i had high expectations on this but as expected it was totally ruling. once again clever ideas, extremely polished and very cute, i just wish keops would release stuff more often. gonna watch it a few more times now
fuck... you... keops :) too fucking good.
Awesome intro!
btw it perfectly runs on Vista with a shitty radeon xpress 200 and latest catalyst drivers :)
wow! very nice invitation... equinox make my day =)
nice one!
great! and it perfectly runs on Linux with shitty blabla
yes, runs on vista. but the real stuff (a couple of nice writers and morphings) is on the top-left corner. piggy...
sweet :)
BEST PROD Of LAST XXX YEARS, AND I REALLY THINK IT !!!

Truth is, Keops is just a lazy faggot. :)
simply gorgeous! and you even spelled brainstorm correct! :)
Looks and sounds cool, but the jerkiness of the effects kind of ruined it a bit for me. Oh well, fuckings to me for only having an x600 at work!
oh, and extra kudos for doing oldschool without making it ugly.
You've got my thumb.
Kickass style as always from Keopsanuculabite, awesomely well designed, smooth, clear, comprehensible, fitted together, fonts, music, effects, and the list is long. Keep on making us ejaculating keops, please, you rocks my socks.
rmeht : what you did could at least deserve an explanation.

Keops, 4-Mat, Nova... I love you <3 ... Damn Equinox (Axel you can copy paste that ;)), i can't give all my CDC's to you ;) ..besides i think this will get a lot of 'em anyway :)

instant cdc, monsieur! you're the new queen of hearts now i guess.
gotta start it a 5th time now, because i'm not through with it yet. =)
Beautifull tune, excellent oldskool effects and really great GFX. I'm fapping to it as we speak.
neat work...
Teh roxxor !!!1
very pretty! congrats on another high quality prod guys =)) the only down point i think is the 4 windows structure (nasty cracktro feeling). it takes the attention from the effects more or less.. for the rest it's great oldschool flavour =)))
4-mat, hard to believe it. A touch from the legend.
And... it crashed. Got an error half way through the loading bar, then when it dropped back to windows, my left-hand monitor stayed black. Very odd too - the cursor appeared fine, but nothing else, and if I dragged a window to that monitor, it turned that black too, and it stayed black even after it was dragged back. Scary spreading blackness! Um.. anyway, probably due to my dual monitor setup or something. Will try it again later, and give a bit more info if it might be a genuine bug.
This is just amazing! I really love the mix between old and new and the soundtrack is just really bloody marvelous!!! :D
OMG SO MANY CDC'S SO FAST IS POUET HACKED??!?!!?!!
Equinox in the all-time top plz :p
Congrats, a really cool prod Keops :)

It's the little details that make it so great :)
"No intro tools were used" - that's oldskool ;)

really nice :)
Major sweetness from Equinox once again. Great to see 4-Mat back in action too!
btw. i second what ltk_tscc said ;)
iks: yep, you deserve an explanation...
- the 4-frames style are just too messy
- those effects are everything but 2007ish
- i've seen that textwriter too many times
- i don't like the colourscheme
- oh well, i don't like this intro at all :)

keops: no opengl apps were running. Just tried again, had the same error, but this time even more weird. If I changed the screen res of the 'black' screen, it would clear the black. But if I changed back to the right res, the black returns. Odd!
Next, I tried with the second screen disabled. Same error. Had to reboot as I couldn't see what I was doing. And to add to the weirdness, the 'loading windows' screen appears on both monitors during boot.. but this time the colours were all wrong on the monitor I ran the demo on. WTF?! This is either the strangest bug since the 'enabling anisotropic filtering causes a motion blur effect on text in normal apps' bug i managed to find ages back, or my video card is about to die!
Will now try after the reboot....

Now the holy trinity of awesome Equinox-invitations is complete :)
extremely cool, especially the letters on a string.
i was tempted to thumb this down, to balance all the thumb ups. it seems like assembling in a rush a bunch of old effects and a far-from-great tune gives instant cdc's and hooras from the pouet crowd.
yeah, what do i know? i'm not oldschool enough, maybe. you would probably get my thumb if you've done this on an atari or c64 (or pokemon mini, for fuck sake) but even then the lack of design - and forgive me this terrible mistake - COMPARED to other stuff you made really disappointed me.
and if i would be a breakpoint organizer i would be a bit ashamed of this being the invitation intro for the greatest party in the world. good thing i'm not a bp orga... oh wait a minute... :)
still, no thumb down because it IS NOT a bad prod, just a disappointing one for me.
but what do i know, i'm a moron, right? please insult me after the beep. thank you.

Oldschool with a new feel... so professional and.... 4-Mat is back!
really cool. I liked the big amount of good stuff :)
keops: after reboot, with all apps closed, and single screen... same error. At least since the reboot when it's closed down (I have to kill it from task manager) I get my screen back :) I'll try it on a brand new, top-of-the-range vista laptop that's sat next to me acting as a decoration (yes, the apps it needs to run don't work on vista, and no drivers for XP, thank you HP!) right now.
Bit of info incase you feel like figuring out the problem (probably not worth it if it's only me in the whole world that can't run it):
Pc is dual xeon 3ghz, 2gb ram, quadro fx 1000 video card. XP + latest updates, and most recent (or it was last week) drivers.
There was more debug info, but I didn't manage to save it before getting the screen back on, but this bit was left in the event log:
Faulting application eqx_-_frameskool_-_bp2007_64k_invit.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x04ff7c55.

keops: yeah, i can imagine that. that's why i wrote "it seems like..." i'm sorry, i'm sure it took long time to make and i appreciate your (and every demomaker) effort, but it's what it looks like for me.
I like it, there's a lot of nostalgic things happening on every screen.
Oldschool meets newschool in an exciting super amazing intro!
Great job guys, you never stop amazing me!
Great job guys, you never stop amazing me!
Well done guys :) I love it. Well, I know I'll be backward-sounding but the youngest folks here who haven't known the "oldskool scene" namely Amiga/Atari won't probably understand that this kind of stuff was our daily demo dose far from a lot of dark and too much boring/serious nowadays demos.
Maybe this is a sign for 2007 Breakpointers to bring some fun and human feelings in their prod, not just art and 3D performance. FLT made it so brilliant last year :)
Bravo Equinox, ça roulaize :)

And just to confirm my suspicions about vista, I stick the usb disk in and get: "This device has a problem." "Your new hardware could not be installed." "Software installed successfully." WTF?
Too bad no greetings to YUP :P
Great intro! the pinocchio-letters are such a great idea. Also cool to finally listen to a 4-Mat track again. In a nutshell: what rmeht hasn't said :)
EQUINOX rules da scene ...
i fuck the thumb down lamers coz they even dont know how to make 0.1% of this 64k

Less than three.
Great one! Nice revival of the oldskool four effects screen. :)
Each of the various effects looks properly designed.
Also effects, graphics and music flow in a coherent mood, kind of eerie, wich is really sweet. :)

Too bad no greetings to JASOFT :P
the effects looked nice and clean and all but it didnt quite reach me this time. im abit tired of retro-oldskool rehashes. no thumbdown due to the cuteness.
Lovely intro. I felt it was a bit hard to consentrate on the texts as there is so much going on.
psonice: here's a hint - open up a command prompt and hammer in "drwtsn32.exe -i" - this will set DrWatson as the default debugger. run the intro again, and if it crashes, go to "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson" and send the two files back to keops.
Nice!
omg this is so nice!
Le Magnificent Equinox!
I loved that "pupul" and of course megadist style screens. Nice variety of oldschool effects. But where's the bouncing big scroller? :)
Anyways great work and Crack to beat dis!

Thanks gargaj. That had the added benefit of making it close nicely when it crashes :)
Keops: where do you want these two files mailing to? If you want them at all that is.

Nice intro... style is not really my cup of tea tho. Deserves a thumb up anyway due to its clean freaky style.
good but a step back
FINALLY got it to run.. on the vista laptop. I think that's the first thing I've managed to get working on vista ;D Well, rulage obviously... infact, if I were to criticise it I'd say there was too much good stuff going on at once. I'm going to have to watch it 4 times, once per screen.
Keops: will mail it. Forgot to check the nfo, despite reading it earlier.. doh.

this is too much to get in one run.
special kudos for the 4mat track

Keops:
I better not tell you the insane amount of time spent syncing the effects and making the design then, you would not believe me after your comment :)
I like demotools for that reason :)
True, we've seen these oldskool thingies before, but like usual it's the little details (which you often don't even spot the first few times you watch it) what makes it better than the rest.
and for a last comment: it works on vista RTM here
I think a bit like jeenio, it seems quite rushed and the flow is too weird and busy, also there are nice effects and some bad ones, the plasma and another one had ugly colours that didn't fit. But there were some other effects, specially the one on the screenshot, topright that turns this comment to a rulez.
Nice prod Keops, I'm sure the final version will fix all these issues.

sweet. Nice colors and code. Very exciting to hear 4mat again!

oh, by the way, it stopped on the middle (almost the end), the graphics card seemed like crashed, and then it went back some seconds after. At the end didn't restore the resolution.

keops: lol, hadn't seen that, that's exactly the kind of details I was talking about :-)
Keops: Isn't that 3 letters...?
soso colorscheme- the rest is exactly my cup of tea...ahh tastes very good!
fhakin great....4mat back in bidnezz ;)
Overall nice for an oldskool design prod and has an okayish chiptune but it didn't work as an invitation because the text was inserted in a manner where there was too many things that distract the viewer from it.
very cool Mental Hangover-effect after the vector bobs exploded, btw.
Waited so long :)
Plasma, rotozoom, with distort please, starfield, scrolltext, soundchip... ok everything is here... but how to proceed with the overscan ? ^^
I'll have to watch it several times to see everything!

great substance, a little intro with a big heart <3
Keops: I am loving your design-skills like a two-dollar whore. :)
Great stuff! Especially liked the idea where the letters are on strigs hehe :) The scene with the purple balls is also sweet! Cool music too. Clearly a thumb up! :)
vector bob wants his money back!
Totally roxxx! Great comeback by 4-mat of
-A-narchy btw. geez I feel like an amiga scener again. Nice to see old amiga routines and design made on today's hardware. People should put old routines 'in a todays look' more often in demos yeay! :)I would give it a coup de jour but I dont know how :)

I've watched this a couple of times now just to get over the mood of "overly exited" before I comment, but I can hardly help myself. This is just very very good work. A big thanks to Keops and 4-mat(!!!) and Nova for making it happen.
And xeNusion: sometimes you really have to take a step back to take two forward. And I think the demoscene has been there for quite some time now.

Well it's a nice intro and worth the thumb up, but tbh I don't really understand how it's so popular... 7 cdc's wtf?
And to everyone who thinks this is some sort of 4mat comeback, check out ate bit.

Best invitro ever? Sadly I won't be going to BP :-/
It torches ! Total luv on this one but I couldn't quite grasp the place of the party as everything attracted my eye at every moment... :)
Needs a second viewing, and a third one, and a fourth, and...

OH NOEZ!! SO MUCH GOING ON!! MY BRAIN IS GETTING CONFUZED!!
Great work!
great in all ways and a tune from 4-mat ! \o/ I start to believe I have waited for THIS. ;)
nice but overrated..
Nice deesign
Cute and Cool Invitation.. This one rocks really :)
I'm not an oldschool fan, at first I thought it was a quickly-thrown-recycled-scenes intro.
But motions are so special and fluid, this makes my day.
Big time.

I'd run it a lot, fück this is teh c00lz. Tones of lovely details (as usual, maybe even more this time, heh) and what a great choose of colors. The tune, logo, everything are enjoyable, it moves everywhere, those windows are bouncing. I have a dual monitor and had a little speed issue has wroted in the nfo but nothing that killed the demo. From the screeny I see the chocolate blocks on the left/down but it was black on my machine. (but the rotozoomer worked). Also thanks for making lines of codes from scratch with few requirements, sharp and accurate pixels rulez.
music link available? :)
nice
wow. amazing. nice. wowowowheeeeeeeeeee!
So smooth, so sweet.
I really didn't like the 4 effects within 1 screen concept, the music was just ok, but the graphics work from the logo right down to the font is superb and the design rocked my world!
Not the most mind blowing technical code this time, but Keops is still one of my favourite coders in the scene today!

I LOVE IT!
Wonderful :)
Cute, but that's all about it.
Absolutely Brilliant! Oldskool Rulezz!
sigh.. keops does it yet again! what an invitation!
I personally like the screen-split :).
Well done!
If somebody says it's overrated, my answer is: no, just many other wonderful productions are underrated.

Cool, but it left my screen in 1024x768 >:(
Oh wow. Annoingly average chiptune, some ugly as monkey's butt "oldskool" effects (with a couple of exceptions) and a serious lack of design. Most overrated prod ever?
so much good effects all over the screen my eyes are only just started to resume normal mode :)
Very nice music, presentation and programming - not to mention sweet ass design :)

Hey, I'm no graphician and as far as I know I never claimed to be.
I am reminded of this prod to some extent :-

This one has everything in it. Congratulations.
The perfect homage for the DEMO concept... oldskool times :P
over cute :)
miam oldskool :)
cool production
Different
hihi! what a cosy intro. Great stuff.. I enjoyed the vector balls and the torus knot.. At this hour it seems that there were some depth independent torus-distortion for some reason which would be very cool of course, but maybe I'm just seeing things.
niiiiiiice :)
Ooooh Fuck ... he did it again !
The tastyings! All the right ingredients and plenty of shininess. Much applause.
WOW, EXCELLENT, VERY COOL, GREAT, FANTASTIC... With other Words -> EQUINOX :D
Brilliant, and the soundtrack is my favourite tune so far this year!
Any chance of an mp3 of it? :D

yeah!
Absolutely cool and worth at leatst 151 thumbs up. So here is the 151st.
simply amazing with much love for details.

Probably deserves an honorary mention for being one of the few invitros that encourages myopia.
That aside, eh... it's cute, but not my kind of thing.

A PC scene product since a looong time, and probably the first Windows scene product even which i LOVE and respect from all my heart. :) Oldschool rules. :)
s/even/ever :)
nice! thx to equinox =)
cute - didn't like the quad-effect-layout though.
hhmm, watched some times again.. love the little details.
Hehe... I bet Gargaj had that first comment planned for weeks. ;)
Looks gorgeous :)
While not my cup of tea exactly, I can see that lots of work has gone into this intro.
For what it is, this is quite good.
Maybe the best 'oldskool' emulator so far.

thats what i call the intro... realy kool. i felt like good old dayz... lotsa thumbs up!
very nice, got goose-struck on it. :D simply what i miss in the actual scene. sweet
what navis said...
Much better than expected. So many stuff crumbed in here with the Keops oldschool style in such huge extend that I had to run it more than 2 times to check some of the stuff there. And so great oldschool music, colors, gfx, syncs with the blocks, ideas, quite better and more unique than Keops older invtros imho. Ohh,. those 4 windows, I couldn't watch all the effects at the same time, so much stuff, so NEAT stuff!!!
video for those linux fags? would be leet :)
=)
4-Mat \o/
Loved the chip.

ALWAYS(!) mindbreaking and refreshing stuff from you ... AND ALWAYS topping yourself ...
I really really love that intro ... massive thumbs up for such a nice piece of code :)

really nice! and 4MAT is back :D
Cool Entertainment
very oldsk00l, nice music
wonderful intro! The best I've seen in years! And nice to hear 4mat is back!
this intro totally rocks!
but to be honest, this prod did not hit my soft spot as directly as the previous two equinox pc prods. maybe because there's so much going on on the screen that it is impossible to see everything by watching the prod only once... at least that's the idea i get when i compare the comments of people (including myself) right after the compo and what they write in their comments here.

lovely cute and funky attention to small details! roxxx
oucha i luve that dammed oldschool design ands tylre under modern machine is perfect + 4 mat for the sound, a dream come true ;)
Very cute, we have plasma, bobs, scrollers, starfield, rotozoom, ...
Havoc: simple solution watch this intro 4 times.. 1 time per screen ;)
WOW!! Really cool, I had to see it 3 times ihih
OK, I actually watched it again on a non crappy Vista machine:
Keops must be one of the handful of coders who really do hardcode stuff and it shows. This intro could not have been made with an intro-maker, or if it could it would take so much time. There are some really nice graphics and fine touches of brilliance here and there. Overall a thumb up, ofcourse.

Very nice fx (especially the sprite screen in the screenshot).
But unfortenly it runs quite slow on the pc at work (coreduo 1.6/gma950).

I wish you had imitated the good oldskool stuff instead of the hidiously cute ones with pastel colours, unreadable fonts and sometimes even pixeled teddybears :) To me this is irritating and attractive at the same time, but that's just a matter of taste.
Anyways, nice work and flawless execution as always so here's my thumb.

Keops:
Despite the final result missing a few of the ideas that you had when you've initially come up with this concept, I still must say you're the only one in the whole wide demoscene who knows how to do classic oldschool stuff in 200x.
And the same goes to 4mat, haven't heard a chiptune that good for years now. Congrats!

Very nice! Lovely music by 4-Mat.
uh? ... ugly :[#####
Great stuff! lovely atmospheric chippy from 4mat and great effects. roll on breakpoint!
it's smooth and polished but...
how many times do you people want to the same fucking thing over and over? this is tedious.

@sofokles: it seems people wanna see this another millionen times over and over and over. maybe they dont wanna see abstract art stuff :D
Another masterpiece
Go go go Keops 4MAt & Nova
Really enjoyed that one perhaps becoz i'm old :)

Nice looking invtro. But... wait, why do the vectorballs run at 15 fps only... in 2007?
HAHAHA pwnage...
nobody ripped the music yet?
btw, running perfectly @ Mac OS with Crossover :D

This is the wonderful innocence of the plasma-scroller-candyballs circus brought back to life with AGA - HD<--- god, I HATE that "word"!!!)
The lavender balls somehow tastes very raspberryish...
And I find that space sine donut thing that appears in the upper left near the end very erotic... I don't know why... X

KEOPS IS THE MAN
4 productions in 1 is nice...
I want more! :)
wonderful mod - sorry for ripping
Well done !
Jeg tager hatten af keops! You must spend hours and hours tweaking, just like in the good old days - do you use any tools at all? Wonderful productions, but all your stuff is! Keep it coming, you alone make it worth while, to keeping a lookout on demoscene stuff today. Respect!
really nice & well-elaborated music, but for the rest - i can't do anything with it.
My opinion how to make this awesome intro even better:
Intro should start with fixed resolution and then goes to overscan(tribute to Atari ST) and then 4in1 screen definetly needs Glenz, Celebradil style(tribute to amiga).

moredhel: polta sitä marisätkää vaan.
funky fresh
btw, how it's possible that intro came 2nd at that little french demoparty ? :(
the 4k was more impressive on da bigscreen, coz frameskool needed to be watched 3-4 times to get all details and the tune is no partysmasher, overall its brilliant but not bigscreen killer prod. :( thats my point for only getting 2nd. for me it´s nr 1.
also awesome tune, gaves me the same feeling as the Loonie tune too <3 (failed to found it since years now) Exiting chippies!!
(was talking about the LTP 4 java invit, :p)
Yeah, that's how we like it!
Nice keops!
it has several slowdowns on vista, but still watchable
video pretty pretty please?
Cool demo. I love its old school tune!
perfect.
Nice old school style.
Yes!
Fully deserves a thumb up! <3
Very awsome intro. :)
I tried to video-cap it, but it didn't come out too well:
http://images.micksam7.com/frameskool.avi
[random graphic glitches near the end + slow frame rate; not existant in actual prod]

keops: I have Radeon9800 AGPx8. From your 160fps I would guess you are using inmediate mode (glVertex...) right?
Great intro guys !!
flawless in every aspect. the music nearly made me cry from nostalgia.
bestest attempt at doing a oldskoolish demo for a long, long time!!!
absolutely brilliant !! Too much good effects, almost imposible to center attention to the details,
I've seen it 5 times now...rlz!
I've seen it 5 times now...rlz!

great oldskool invitation. meh l0vz teh Equinox S7yl3!!!!1
oh yeah. 64k? OH YEAH!
oldschool with power of new computers rox, smooth effects, nice design & colors, fucking great :)
cheap
burnt eeh
this simply rules! exactly like an invite should be! lovely music!! clean and nice effects.
Excellent... nothing more to say !
very nice - i love it!
OMFG KEOPS SENDING FUCKIGNS TO STEFAN LOL I THUMB DOWN THIS PROD NOW!!!11111 11
LOL WTF I ALREADY LOVED IT LOL :))) JOKE CRACKED BY UNS3EN/JOKECRACKERZ
1st demo in years where i just went like, fuck that's so bitchslappingly cool!!!!!!!!111elleven
hmmm.. I'm not sure what to think about this. There was lot of stuff at same time in screen, nice syncing and cute details. But there was nothing really special. This is good in it's own style, but piggy from me.
It's oldschool, but it isn't crap? I am confused
keops, actually i think
isn't so bad!
![BB Image](http://www.pouet.net/gfx/logos/testlogga.gif)
isn't so bad!
skrebbel: are you blind, did that danish girl use pepperspray on you, or is it just poor taste? :)
yeah, give all the praise you want but don't dare to thumb down this prod or else keops will show to the rest of the world how much you suck...
navis: you make equinox harasment panda very sad :(
Crashes after loading on my Win XP SP2, P4 HT 3GHz, 1GB RAM, GeForce 6800GT 256MB.
havoc, pepperspray.
keops, let's hope so!
keops, let's hope so!
keops: that case was trolling from his end to the nth degree, a patented asshole.
There might be things you don't know about this incident. Till then don't get upset about thumb downs, some times they are far more constructive (now I start talking like an old fart).

Simply roxx!
I love it :)
Great music and great style.
Excellent Keops :). sympa de voir une variante de la cracktro pour Bloodwych sur ST :). Bravo !
MASTERPIECE!
ohhh yes! 4mat's tune just rocks, and the intro as well... congratz guys :)
kuku
Keops, dude. This is amazing... (i've just watched it 3 times in a row...)
...but Gargaj's right: COMMERCIAL SELLOUT... :D
...but Gargaj's right: COMMERCIAL SELLOUT... :D
awesome!! only thing is it didn't restore screen properly on exit and windows won't change it now without reboot. wtf opengl wtf?? but anyway the intro was great! :)
not my cup of tea
Nice tune, nice oldschool fx? Do I need more? No. :)
[+] music

real 2 Equinox.... nice invitro... halo
omg... and u call that a 64k !? crap!
not really for me.. but the music is very spiffy
I can understand that this is not " my cup of tea" or ... "i dont really like this kind of demo" ... etc ..
but how is it possible to thumb DOWN a prod like this ??? simple :
>yeah ! i'm the man who thumb down prods coz i'm a fuckin masta and nobody can feel my power ( ok ok i've released nothing but i know i can do much better ... )
In fact it means : i need friends please !
pathetic

This demo fails loading on my Windows Vista (nvida)
Very nice production, indeed. Everything's fitting very well. Kinda reminds me of Red by Razor 1911 ... if my memory doesn't fail me, that is.
lol @ Waffle. You're right in that regard.
I have to admit it took me a while to digest the invitation and to give a comment. The expectations were of course insanely high, both due to Keops' involvement but also due to last year's phenomenal invitation.
What I enjoy so much about Keops' direction is that literally every single detail isn't accidental. And it's not about agreeing with everything he says (because I don't), but it's about the fact that his work is simply highly polished. And every demomaker out there knows how much time it takes to get it "just right".
My first impression of the production was "oh my, where do I have to look? There? oh no, bottom left, oh no, top right". My brain spit out an "Out of memory" error. IMO great "replay value". ;-) Brilliant production in every regard (except if you're an oldschool-hater). And hey Mat, I still love the tune. ;-) Great that we've stayed in touch over the years. And welcome back now, officially. ;-)

only elites are able to read scroller .. it requires trained eyes
good job, i like
lovely
What an attention to detail. Congratulations guys - I take off my virtual hat for this one :-)
awesome. sure wish i could .kkapture it :-/
very cute work by equinox as usual
Flickers and jerks to the point of being completely unwatchable (Athlon64 X2 3800+, Radeon X1600 Pro, Windows XP), plus vandalizes any open windows on the same desktop... Seems a bit sloppy to me.
radiant: sounds to me that u have tons of spyware
thanks for the update and help with getting .kkapture to work with it! :D
one word : great
nice work ! more please!
Zplex: Hardly...
keops: Nope, only SeaMonkey and PuTTY running at the same time as the demo (and neither is consuming much resources). Also no dual screen, but I use virtual desktops... Haven't been any problems with your previous stuff though.

Vibe is the word
awesome :)
yeah oldschool!!!
Nice oldskool effects in a fresh way. I don't like the screen subdivision though.
blah
Fun to watch. =)
Too much information error...
Nice. But didn't really get me in a party mood like the bp invitations of the previous years.
very good work!!!
Best. 64k. Ever.
lovely invitro!
nice invitation . especially the music. brings back ncie memories :)
sofokles: its an invite-intro
and good one too!

It even runs almost smoothly on my old laptop!

There is some serious magic at work here.
Keops, je t'aime, epouse moi et fait moi des gosses !
very cool demo !
I really love this production! I even showed it to my gf : she found it awesome!
i should have commented this a while ago.
as usual, well done and stylish. im always glad to see keops releasing new prods :P

Probably one of the sweetest little intros I have seen in years <3
this is so GOOD. so fucking good.
Nice one.
Great one! Especially loved the slo-mo replay of the ball explosion :-)
Rulez!
Vector balls and stereo effect kicked ass.
Smooth.
Achieves what (overrated) 1995 tried to achieve.

I love how colorful it is. It is very cheery and I love it! The artistic style is very satisfying.
Magnificent design combining all kind of effects. Superb music. Rulez.
The best equinox demo !
No thumb here either, shame on me.
Not as strong as the other equinox demos, but still awesome and great design like usual

Yes toujours aussi top mon keops du dechire du slip harfffffffffff je kifffffffffffff qoi
Que du plaisir ! Eat my bollocks, virtual escape, la vodka ... et maintenant retrouver la même "touche" sur PC, ça déchire. Merci pour ça !
Fun, relaxing, nostalgic, full of details, well-crafted. Simply one of the best invitros in 2007. Keops, you old mummy, you still have some mojo ! Kudos !
Very well done, I liked it a lot.
Previous problems resolved with a performance counter patch, nice demo.
lol @ loadingpaper :D
[offtopic]waaaw, harry potter is a scener ? didn't know that.[/offtopic]
Old skool meets new school
I can`t anymore even imagine this intro without 4-mat`s track!
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!! Great!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my god, i'm to late to comment this great prod :( :D RuLeZ *THUMBSUP*
I dont understand, why you people like it so much...
get a clue
Love is all
Extraordinarily pleasant!
Really liked it! Why I haven't thumbed it up before?!
535: 4mat's music does a celestial effect, you dunno? :D

Another masterpiece that I have forgotten to thumb up. Legendary stuff!
I'm sorry but those four pane intros are getting just boring. To me it just doesn't make the cut. Nice effort though.
What the hell, I should have thumbed this 49 years ago
I love it !
![BB Image](http://www.pouet.net/gfx/titles/coupdecoeur.gif)
keops: both you and I should stop mentioning specific months. Maybe we can get eachother to improve on that. lol
I love this invitation <333
loooove it
Not your best prod as I already told you. Your previous stuff or what you did under orb was much better in my opinion. Piggie.
This brought a tear to my eye. Just wonderful.
Superb !
I love this!
Flawless design! Colorful prod with fantastic music! Rockz! <3
as always keops makes good job, the master makes good job, keops is not anymore my student
This is most definately an inspiration for me. The design, the way everything flows and syncs to the music, the transitions... executed to the perfection.
I never thumbed this up? Dear me...
This is sooo cute :D. Shamelessly retro but it's slick and very-well crafted. And the music is top-notch :).
one word.
RULEZ.
RULEZ.
I had the black tiles under a GeForce FX 5600. When I got the new gfx card it's one of the first demo I'd run ;) It was perfect on a GeForce 8800 GTS 320. (both system on XP SP2)
![BB Image](http://pouet.net/gfx/rulez.gif)
the detail in this is massive - if you get my meaning. Its one of the view that stands watching again and again. GREAT 64k
I just love this one, great effects, great feelings and brilliant music :)
Very nice.
perfect
great!!
All my oldschool amiga feelings gathered in one prod!!! Yeah! You rock keops!
PS: I forgive you for having been an atarist scener ;)
I.love.this.
My favorite demo in a very long time. Makes me very nostalgic.
Best 4-mat tune ever! And really nice mix of effects, reminds me a little about Mahoney&Kaktus' stuff.
great intro)
after two years it has grown on me.
thumbs up for this wonderful intro!
thumbs up for this wonderful intro!
feel flooded with it.
The best PC demo ever.
Fucking awesome PC demo! It's sad that this year is the last breakpoint ever.
sorry to swim against the tide here, but watching this was a really boring experience. literally nothing on the screen interested or excited me. the melody synth got on my nerves after 3 seconds.
only thing i likec was the scene gazette pic, that was nice-ish.

Great music, great design, great code!! The style, the tune, the ambient!!!
Hey, that's really cool!
Naively oldschool but still very polished, making scenes look like artworks. :-)

Awesome music, dig the old school effects.
Cette oeuvre est d'une diversité sidérante !
pretty good track but it's not enough for a thumb up since I'm not a big fan of the visuals
Nice Invitation with a great 4-mat tune!

Dull, at my taste, and I don't like the idea with several screens...
super code, super design, super music
A very pleasant watch!
yep
Ooooh keops, u and 4mat made a little masterpiece here, it just can't get enough thumbs up. what a wonderfull intro, u guys brewed together. plz do it one more time, pretty plz :)
I had to play it 4 times to watch it all ;o)
Effects everywhere :)
NICE effects everywhere, I mean ;)
Tune, visuals - and the code must be awesome - damn after six years this still kicks some serious arse. Holy fuck damn <3
come back equinox !
watched it so often and no comment yet? wtf?! one of Equinox' finest prods!
Everytime you watch it you notice another little detail.
Nice oldschool medley with lovely attention to detail. Mellow music really hits the spot as well.
so so
What almost everyone else said.
This is a cute one! Great!
Ahh, loved these multi frame demos on amiga back then, love this!
nice clean style
Oh my.
Another great Equinox production. Great tune by 4-mat and four mini-demos! What's not to like? :)
4mat rulez!
Sooo many lovely details to discover! Just wonderful. :-)
The way your attention is guided around the different panels is very cool. Thanks for the replay of the bobs exploding, I missed it the first time watching the rotozoomer do its thing to the music.
Ok, whatever, thumbs up. I still love the track and appreciate the attention to detail, hard to beat this in its category.
Eight years later and still as enjoyable as ever.
Just wooooooooooooo!
4 panes => 4x thumb
Still watching with goosebumps in 2017.
Very very nice
rulez big time
I'm not worthy!
The music is so good, and becomes just better and better... lots of care poured into this overall.
Really cute invitation. Seriously.
Also, good music 4-Mat :) Someone actually sent the XM somewhen during September of 2019. Didn't knew that it was used in this intro-invitation until now.

And, in case you are wondering, I was able to run this demo *just fine* without any issues on Windows 8.1
nice one
Cool!
after all those years, nothing more than a simple thumb up can be added to the list
Always loved this, so clean and so retro but also modern. Favourite frame is the bobs above the checkerboard. And the music <3
Wow!
