¤6¥2  SANITY VS TRSI

  - THE DUEL!! -¤4¥1


In this first issue of JOYRIDE we have
reviewed  the  two  highest entries at
the   ¤6WORLD   OF   COMMODORE  1992¤4  in
Germany,  ¤6Sanity  and  TRSi¤4!   Both of
them    competed   with   high-quality
trackmos   and   the  result  was  the
following:   Sanity  at  the first and
TRSi  at  the second place.......  Was
it  a fair result?  Let's see what our
two  most  insane judges, ¤6Santiago and
Coral¤4, thinks...
ð
¤6¥2       SANITY¤1¥1 


 The graphics are not especially good,
except  from  the demon head which has
been  used  before.  The  others could
have been much better.  But the  music
is excellent!!  Very  nice tunes.  And
it  also  scores  the  highest  in our
scale.   The main tune is in a typical
Jester  & Bit Arts disco style, with a
little  techno-influence.  A very nice
detail   is   that   the   code   goes
concurrently   with  the  music.   The
second tune is also inspired of techno
and  it's  quite good.  Although using
routines  for scrolling graphics noone
else  (for  a few exceptions) has ever
used almost ¤6EVERYTHING¤1 in the demo has
been  released  before  with  Sanity's
earlier  productions,  and  that pulls
the  Originality  down  quite  a byte,
sorry,  bit.   Finally,  the  demo  is
Ð
good.  Far over the average level, but
it still lacks of ¤6THAT¤1.  But one thing
is  for  sure,  Sanity has saved their
newest  routines  for  the ¤6Party II in
Aars¤1,   and  that  demo  is  certainly
something to look forward to.  Keep up
the good work Sanity!  We know you can
do much better than this.

 WICKED SENSATION¤1¥1

 
Whow!   A two disk trackmo from ¤6TRSI's
German   section¤1!    That  had  to  be
something  special,  we thought before
putting  it into  the  drive.  And  it 
was......  ¤6NOT¤1!   At  least  the first
impression  was very negative because,
it  didn't  start  at all at the first
try! We had to switch off the computer
before  it  worked (ofcourse we turned
the  computer  on  again,  or  else it
would  have  been a little hard, don't
you  think?).  But then we experianced
a   couple   of  pure,  high  standard
Amiga-Mania minutes.
 The  graphics  were superb with a few
exceptions.   The  picture of the girl
and   the  logo  in  the  endpart  was
marvellous!   Nice work, ¤6Peachy!!¤1  The
Ð
¤1music,  two  tunes  composed  ¤6by Romeo
Knight¤1,    were   great.    Especially
¤6"Boesendorfer P.S.S."¤1,  with  the best
pianosamples   we   have  ever  heard.
However  the demo itself wasn't really
very epoch-making, but it contained of
the  latest  known  routines with some
new  effects.   The  Quality was high,
but  pulled  down  a little because of
the  incident in the beginning...  The
design  and  coordination  between the
code, gfx and music was good!

¤4That  leads  us  to the main question:
¤9Who is the winner?!¤4
   
The  music  was  equal and the gfx and
the  originality  was better in Wicked
Sensation,  which  means  that  out of
these two excellent demos we are proud
to present a winner!!!
