    Spaceballs' 9 Fingers, an Amiga demoscene demo released at The Party in 1993, recaptured here in 50fps HD. It is the follow-up to their demo State of the Art.

    HN cites it as a mind-blowing example of 1990s demoscene technique on Amiga hardware.

      The “European hacker-culture demo” from Ezra’s Amiga is likely State Of The Art or 9 Fingers from Spaceballs — both really cool scene demos: [LINK] this video These easily run on an Amiga 500 ES from the 80s, and are stored on a single floppy disk.

      Reminds me of the techniques Spaceballs used to make the mind blowing "9 fingers" demo for Amiga in 1993. [LINK] this video
