Hi guys..
The last hours i have tried to create something for a Magnification coding contest... The intro is not finished but due fact of some reasons i will show you here a preview version... The mainpart is not really finished yet, because... a) i am not sure if the intro except the compo rulez as the intro is atm... b) Since the intro dont use any timers and using textures > 512x512 it would be nice to get your feedback if the intro works well and smooth your system.... c) I am not really sure atm how to design the mainpart for the final version... so i have added a small helpscreen where you can change some settings (look n feel of the intro) by pressing the keys... (the keys even works when starting the intro and beeing in the intro part where the titlepic will be shown)

Updated v0.5
- should be now 100% fps independent and works on all pcs in same speed.
- title and credits image in higher quality and adjusted colors a bit
- credits image reworked a bit
- added new bacterial object
- added and extended the interactive user mode ^^ (not all ideas added)
- now just only two files and only ~690 KB (for both files) with own simple tool coding for datafile loader
- added scroller with greetz and so on...
- some other stuff... just check it out..

ExtasyTrip_v5.zip

Thanks in advance!
Best regards

cpu:

gfx:
ATI Fire GL V8600. 1024MB GDDR3 512bit

Pretty cool looking effects you have there, actually runs at about 30-32 FPS in magnification demo mode on this work PC which is:

Intel P4 2.8GHz Single Core
Intel 82945G onboard Video
1.5 GB Ram
On the Title screen ?? though it only runs between 12-7 FPS.

thanks for feedback.. > 200 views and just 2 only feedbacks ^^

however.. v0.5 for the contest was finished yesterday before midnight... it has a lot of changes... and should now work on all pcs in same speed... fps independent !!

Its not the final because i had not enough time... if you want just d/l the latest version (v0.5), which has sadly not been accepted in the contest, becuase i attached a JPG instead my latest ZIP version... i am so stupid!

Update - v0.5
