Logon's run - 3D meets the aging bits
A Demo by Overflow from Logon System.
It manages to animate many layers of textured 3D object in high definition and real time on a hardware with no dedicated GPU, to the amazement of the whole modern Demoscene.
Was ranked 2nd at Revision 2017 because obviously a souped-up Sega Megadrive that fails at 3D is more impressive than a CPC succeeding in real 3D with only 22ko of datas.
Nominee at THE METEORIKS 2018 : OUTSTANDING TECHNICAL ACHIEVEMENT.
The catchy Music from Tom et Jerry is also to be considered and integral part of this Demo's success and was praised a lot in the various comments.
