Kolian was working really hard in the demoengine for this demo. He got more than a 50% of speed increment, plus a texture and models cache, new realtime effects, plus the ability of rendering 3DS animations directly composed with 3D studio or exported from lightwave.

The demoThing is a collection of colourful visuals, psychedelic effects and energetic music, featuring everything from guitars and strange 3D objects to spectacular flares and fireworks. Its varied scenes are tied together by carefully synchronised effects and a powerful soundtrack, creating a dynamic and sometimes chaotic experience.
This demo is the second one released with the visuals editor, that was enforced with additional functions to avoid bottlenecks in the development of each new demo.
Although the production mixes different visual styles and colour schemes, it showcases several interesting effects and technical improvements. The result is an experimental demo that prioritises visual variety, music synchronisation and raw energy over a single, consistent theme.
The demo took second place in the combined demo competition, behind Arise, from Stravaganza. A more than well deserved first place!!!
