Review by Sorcerer of The Digital Dictators!
LIFE´S A BITCH DEMO
This is a quite new demo from the famous Lost Boys.
When you first load the demo,you see something familiar.Three faces,
the TLB members,just like in the TLB maggie 2.But then you see two
other faces lighted up by a flashlight.Two new members!
Pressing space will,after a while´s loading,lead you to the main menu.
Here you can hear a wonderful soundtracker beat,made by Michael
Bittner from Thalion Software.The well-known megadeth font is used
in the scroller and some sprites flies around saying "THE LOST BOYS
LIFE´S A BITCH".You can choose between the different screens by
scrolling a bar (steered with the cursor keys) and then pressing
space for the screen you want to see.There are only five screens
in this demo.I will write about them in order of appearance:
BEAT-NICK SCREEN Made by The Lost Boys
This is a very nice screen.The first thing you see is a green-yellow
squareshape scrolling towards you and behind the famous "LOSTBOYS"
landscape.After a while a huge scroller shows up.It is not very
beautiful.Then again,you´ll have to wait a while.After a few seconds
different 3d objects begins to roll around on the screen,starting
with a TLB logo.The objects are VERY fast!
AK-SCREEN Made by Gigatex
This screen begins with a text saying "GIGATEX PROUDLY PRESENTS" and
a sample saying almost the same thing.A rotating "AK" shows up.
After a while the credits comes up on the screen in a nice font and
behind the text you see some balls moving around very fast.After that
some other balls shows up,but these you can move in different ways
by using the function keys.
All this made in only 15 hours!
CHROME Made by ULM and Replicants
This is another very nice screen.When you´re in,you see some colours
covering the screen and a scroller with a beautiful background behind.
On the background you see the text "REPLICANTS ULM".Is this all then?
Nope! If you press the keys 1-0 you will see that the colours
begins to move and look like waves.It looks like a wonderful mixture
of colours.Pressing F1-F10 will change different values so that the
colours get other forms.
MEGASCROLL 2 Made by ULM
This screen is ALMOST fullscreen.There are some blue dots distorting
in the background of a HUGE scroller which is bumping up and down.
All this plus a nice (but very short) sample.
3D CIRCLE SCROLL Made by The Lost Boys
First you see a starfield coming towards you and then an ugly text
saying "THE LOST BOYS".After that a circle scroller shows up.This
moves around like a butterfly.Behind the scroller a rastertext comes
up sometimes with all the members of The Lost Boys.
This demo is very good,even though there are only five screens.
The grades are good:
Graphics: 90%
Sound: 85%
Scrolltexts: 82%
Coding: 94%
Overall: 83%
