Regular US event Demosplash took place earlier this month in Pittsbutgh, Pennsylvania and we have now all the releases neatly listed on Demozoo. Some really cool ANSI/ASCII art as often with US demoparties and a rather intriguing partial remake of MS-DOS classic Second Reality, only running on a holographic display.

We just passed another little milestone - we now detail, in more or less detail, 70,000 pieces of demoscene-related music.

Much of it even playable right in the browser, thanks to the quite wonderful Cowbell! If you're not aware, you can drop-in a download link to eligible formats from one of the supported platforms - scene.org (not inside archives), modland, or modarchive - and you'll have instantly enabled playback in the browser! We even made a little thingiemabob that lists a subset of tunes that are eligible but do not have download links - clicky clicky - and you can help by dropping in some links in there!

So, fast forward then I guess, to the next milestone :)

X! Every two years, we get a new X party. If you've been living under a rock, X is pretty much the C64 demoscene Olympics, and where all the big guns unleash their firepower. And such firepower! We're got the complete results integrated into Demozoo now, and the files are available on scene.org, so really - fire up your machinery, and get to it. We're really not worth this embarrassment of riches.

By all accounts, this weekend's TRSAC was filled with Magic and Straf, as it should be, and the contestants produced some cracking entries for everyone else to marvel at after the fact. Just so happens, those results and those files just dropped and are available for everyone, so let's get some screenshots and some credits and whatnot going, shall we? :)

Our friends at Deadline just held a hell of a party this weekend, and if you were unable to attend we can now present the results and files from the event. By all accounts it was an excellent event, with even more excellent contributions, so get stuck in and have a look, and remember to comment on your favourites :)

The one and only demoparty in South America was being held in Buenos Aires, Argentina last weekend and the results and releases are all in! There are many productions to enjoy this time, with a big focus on text art (ANSI/ASCII/PETSCII/Teletext, whatever floats your boat). We'll take this opportunity to salute our fellow demosceners many kilometers away in South America and to thank the Flash organizers for their diligence in getting the party's output on scene.org and Demozoo.

Our good friends over in Hungary are as always on the ball, and when we wake up this morning we find all files and results from this weekend's edition of Function are already out and waiting for our perusal. So... no sense in waiting around, then is there? :)

Check out the releases from this Amiga event that took place in Chełm, Poland: a handful of demos and plenty of graphics and music entries.

AmiParty 2018 - Summer Edition on Demozoo / on scene.org

We've just received a sizeable shipment of demoscene items coming all the way from Saint Petersburg. As often with Russian demoparties, there was a lot of love for the ZX Spectrum, but plenty of other nice things for more recent platforms as well.
