Classic Amiga Demo's in HTML5

(it was Tor that loved the Amiga, right?)

Hmm I thought by demo's they were talking old Amiga demo's but I guess its the demo's that cracking groups put in games. Shrugs. I never had an Amiga so I don't really know about this stuff.

The music on that site sounds like the Commodore 64's SID chip rather
than the Amiga's 14-bit* sample-based sound. Please don't think that
the Amiga's sound was that primitive, the machine was used for some
professional music production.

I wish they'd ported some games instead of those cracker screens.

* 14-bit by virtue of 2 8-bit channels on each side, so if you set one
of those channels to be 64 times quieter than the other you had 14
bits to play with. The Amiga was an odd beast, you could have part of
the screen in a different resolution to the rest, or modify the
limited pallet per vertical line to fake something closer to True
Color, and all that was available to my younger self without even
having to leave BASIC.
