Illusion (amiga)/Reviews

Review by Glenn Lunder
This opens good, with promising design and some lines flying at us...then they have to spoil it all by holding onto the effect WAY too long :( The rest of the few effects are quickly over once it gets going, and you're left with a feeling of 'is that all?' Different pacing could perhaps have given this a lot. The 80 face mirrored vector object and the man's outline walking across the logo are still moments of niceness though. The music is good, and Rych's "Ace" logo is not bad either. Conclusion: shows a lot of potential, but will need a little time to bring it to the surface. tested A1200/030-50/2mb chip, 16mb fast/3.0.

Walhalla bears every mark of a production released too early. The code contains bugs (fucked up Walhalla logo), and there are other mistakes (one of the thumbnails does not correspond with the actual picture). Speaking about the pictures themselves, I must say that Odin was perhaps not ready to helm his first slideshow. My advice would have been to wait a few months, and make a few more pictures, then release your BEST work on ONE disk. As it stands, there are three rather ok pictures here, and the rest is not really up to an acceptable standard. Odin needs to work a little more with his technique and his anatomy studies. Some of your women look a little strange :) Still, there are some glimpses of what might become something... Keep practising. Evrimsson's module is not bad, and the code is almost nonexistant. tested A1200/030-50/2mb chip, 4mb fast/3.0.

Short, and basically made for fun, this little 4k'er doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't. There's some gameboy graphics, a small fire effect with the three letters ILS, and that's it. The title is in Polish, and means 'Buy a Pentium'! Though the intro credits a musician, no music ever appeared on my machine. tested A1200/030-50/2mb chip, 16mb fast/3.0.

Considerably more serious than Niuniek's other entry in the 4k competition, "Virtual Illusion" is actually pretty decent. There's even phong objects in there, along with some fairly decent design. I like it, but it's not going to change the world. What more's there to say? tested A1200/030-50/2mb chip, 16mb fast/3.0.
