what a failure
by
Ye Olde Laptops Posse
a 4k intro for Tokyo Demo Fest 2012, 13-14.01.2012, Tokyo, Japan
PARTYVERSION
code, "music": w23 (me@w23.ru)
REQ:
OpenGL 2.1
rather 2009-2010'ish video card
Windows / OSX / GNU/Linux
this is a failure because:
- i worked for it for a month and it looks like this
- it contains SPH in 4k and it looks like this
- it doesn't run on any old laptop (and still looks like it should)
- it isn't very fast even on a new one, and has only 4096 particles
- on linux it requires glut for video (and is not tested!)
- on osx it requires sdl for sound
- it has already missed all possible deadlines (even though i spent literally all night tuning it for being at least digestible)
- it is getting released, so it's pretty much stuck in this sorry state FOREVER
