Sorry about the glitchiness with the cube, no emulators are exactly very good at emulating it right... ironically, the cube is also glitched on the actual hardware (It's less cube and more cuboid :p).
2015 edit: Holy fuck my old descriptions were awkwardly written. I'll have to produce an updated encode at some point, an 50fps one.

Everytime the DOKTOR speaks, the patient is experiencing a different state of mind, rapidly deteriorating his own sanity. At least that's how I see it.

Who else wants a re-up for 60fps

[@QueenOfPessimism]

Gotta say my favorite part about this is the music

[@CarsandCats]

Squint your eyes when watching low res and it looks fantastic. I am not kidding.

Dr. Phil got 2600ed but still spill BS

[@LostBeetle]

Such a kick ass tune. One of the top tunes I have ever heard.

[@гксгк]

wait viznut??

[@Dubflash]

I will play this tune in my next DJ set on a big soundsystem with 4 x 18" bass scoops and 8 x 15" bass scoops. It will rock.

Am I the only person in the world that thinks the current (PS4, XBX1X, SWITCH) generation of systems are terrible? and the 2nd-7th generations were the best ones?

[@ecernosoft3096]

I think it is..

[@greenaum]

Wow, wow, wow! 2600 plasma! HOW TF did you even get that many colours on one scanline? Amazed. Tell me it's not pre-rendered. Actually it probably isn't, in only 8K.

[@bnolangmail]

Holy shit that was insane. The presentation of the scroller, to the rotozoomer to the warper was just so great. Bravo.

FWIW, it's 2022 and I just fired this up on my MiSTer FPGA and I can't see any of the graphical glitches which appeared in the above emulated video. i can totally understand why an emulator 10 years ago would have experienced problems - the demo scene in general is pushing the boundaries with timings and tricks that would never be used in a normal production game. If I decide to fire up a modern software emulator i might come back and comment if that works correct 10 years later :-)

[@abstinentelven]

Amazing demo!

[@Matrix803]

Imagine if someone from 1978 programmed this music and released it as a single. What would the response be?

[@TeamSilvertail]

Dr. Phil, is that you?

[@hexkwondo]

Wow this is crazy! It would make one hell of an intro for an actual game

[@TheIrkenEmpire420]

The music sounds accurate to what the mooninites hear when they listen to hip hop.

[@ConnorR.mp3]

This whole thing made me very uncomfortable. I think i need a therapist now.
