We finish off this category with the final and one of the most wanted pieces in the nomination rounds…
Making jaws drop when presented at the X’2008 party in The Netherlands (where it got a more than deserved first position), Booze Designs’ demo brings forth a bag of surprises for our Commodores, pushing the 64 past its limits with an array of effects before thought impossible. Couple this with nice graphics and music (Dane doing a double role there!) and you got yourself a winner.
The bar for tchnological achievement on the stock C64 platform has been raised once again, until X’2010 perhaps? :)
Ladies and gentleman, this is:

I was gonna be pissed if this wasn’t included in your list! :)
I couldn’t leave out one of the most interesting releases of the year. I could have created controversy though, bcause I hav a soft spot for My Beauty from Fairlight…
It’s a predictable choice of course, but the reason it is predictable is because it’s quite possibly the furthest anyone’s pushed the C64 graphically. I was stunned when I (and I’m sure those at X would have been) when I first saw this, bravo Booze Design!
To be honest I was more impressed by Dane’s graphics than the effects themselves. Yes, they are hard to pull, but I never been a fan of coderpr0n.
this is crazy shit mad effort.
7 years of work i heard.
this is so 100% DEMOSCENE!
and i hope it doesn’t win.
