luma - mercury | 64k | Final

[@GordonBraicks]

One of the very best 64kb demos I have ever seen. It’s a really joy to watch and rewatch.

[@redvenomweb]

This might not be the most technically impressive 64k demo ever made, but I think it will be the one that ages the best. The art direction is fantastic.

[@gianniss.3739]

This is perhaps the best 64k demo I've ever seen. And I've seen a lot since 1990....

[@UserX860]

*Approximate - Gaia Machina* is my fav. ;)

[@holicool]

This is so technically and artistically amazing. Feels like an animated dream. Love the soundtrack, colours and that fantastic motion blur! Never went to any demo party but I very much feel like doing that now :)

[@ochgottnochma]

Wow, that feeling was epic. This demo actually sets you in a mindstate of "being in a speedy carussel" or something lol

[@GordonBraicks]

Love the atmospheric soundtrack, nice choice of sounds!

[@danguafer]

The soundtrack is so simple but so immersive ;z

[@loadretro]

I Cant stop watching this demo.music is fantastic and the style of the demo is superb !!!

+Mike Ryan At least once a day, for the last few months. I too know your woes, but it is fun here, and I will be back for more :)

[@fcycles]

this show an important amount of computation to create motion blur at this size which of course might be pre-computed... but the result is some live-like actions! + an amazing soundtrack!

[@Lysergesaure1]

I love it. I really like the music and the good sync between visuals and music.

[@newtonseple]

Looks like someone's been up all night to have fun :) Awesome intro

[@jodzon]

MASTERPIECE!!!!!!!! BEST DEMO EVER!!!

[@stefanberghuis8405]

Beautiful soundtrack!

[@axelei]

Maybe not the best 64k demo, but maybe the best music i've heard in one of these.

[@EvilProfesseur]

unbelievably brilliant

[@therisinghope]

Art & integrity.! Nothing else.! (you are the ones...whom are wired.!)

[@SarenArterius]

The motion blur is facsinating!

[@jordanhughmckimm3297]

So is the chromatic aberration. I do love a bit of that when it's done right!

[@reanimationxp]

@@jordanhughmckimm3297 i barely noticed it but yeah, definitely has to be done in moderation. games like max payne 3 look abysmal

[@사이보그-i6p]

i need a full song of this, thanks to my professor who showed me this demo

[@micione1975]

this demo remembers me when I was a lil kid.... so happy :)

[@ZylonBane]

This demo remembers you? That's kind of creepy. When did you two meet?

[@ValkyrUser]

Amazing! Shame the actual demo doesn't work for me. It starts up, the music plays and the skybox shows up but no lights. I wonder if nvidia broke it with an update at some point. SAD!

[@reanimationxp]

works fine for me on 1080ti

[@michaeldesmyther8768]

Awsomer than ever

[@xb17]

dream-like !

[@tinagauthier9607]

Wow how great is this !

[@Ark-mm3qj]

It has shocked me, fascinating!

[@thepeller210]

Outstanding work for 64k

[@demons12]

Maaan, such a shame that the Nvidia drivers really fuck this demo up. It wouldn't display anything a few versions ago, now it run without the trees.

[@microwar]

Awsome demo. Bet the title and discription for this video takes up more space than 64kb.

[@Isiel42]

Wow, how many of these demoscene events are there?

[@Annikras]

There are quite some demoparties around the world (mostly europe though). Check this website if there's one near you: www.demoparty.net/

[@linux4domvid]

Works on Linux Mint (Ubuntu) with wine 1.9,7

[@Lysergesaure1]

What's your setup ? wine 2.14 here, I can see the loading screen and hear the music fine, but the lights aren't showing.

[@indask8]

Anyone got any luck running this demo on Win 10 + GTX 1080? all I get is static noise, and I'm not the only one apparently.

[@alex_6640]

Sadly, i have same issue on Win7 + 1060, previously i was able to run Luma on HD6950....

[@reanimationxp]

works fine for me, win 10 2004, gtx 1080ti, nvidia 456.71, i7 2600k

[@indask8]

@@reanimationxp Thanks ! Looks like it was fixed in Win 10 2004, confirmed working on a Ryzen 4750G + Vega 8, so should work on my main computer as well.

[@KrisRaistlin]

i just ♥ it!

[@random_precision_software]

Wow what software did you use to do this graphics?

[@xtrailz]

Microsoft Paint

[@sam_lory]

How's this real with only code? Incredible! But very cool

[@SwethLightD]

OWWW EEEE NICE SHOT 1:48

[@MyOtheHedgeFox]

First I thought it was too simple. Then, halfway through, I saw it was 64k. How the frig did they fit that in 64k.

[@PsyCodeqz]

intense, I have been a fan of demoscene for awhile now and I'm so proud that videos like this are being made. This is edc for me, the background track was good, but listening to some psy trance to it was really awesome. let me know your facebook if can, I got a lot of connections in california and austin, tx that would like to meet you for real

[@reanimationxp]

this guy didn't make the demo.. but you're right that this reminds me of EDC a whole lot

[@slavas6090]

[@tigerbody1]

what is "demoscene" about?

[@SourCyanide]

+patrick donegan cool equipment?

[@axelei]

Not really, these run (and are developed) in pretty standard configurations.

[@r00key]

LOL... I misread it for 64kb... I was like WOW!

[@thomasg5554]

When I was watching and listening to kzbin.info/www/bejne/oGGWmWSfa9Sod5o it definitively rang a bell.

[@holicool]

Is this me or this new track from Christian Loeffler sounds a lot like the Luma demo soundtrack? Check by yourself: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6q3i6WwhbSNeMU

[@RusticRaver]

I trully hate this music, but hat down for the graphix!

[@reanimationxp]

the music is fantastic, foh.
