What's our customers says

  • 5 Star Review  A beautifully designed book with informative insights about the demoscene. Well researched, well written, a history of the corner of the demoscene.

    5 Star Review  I hesitated to buy these books for a long time, but in the end I didn't regret it. I grew up with the Amiga and the demo scene was an important part of my youth (I'm almost 50 now). Reading the book and watching the corresponding demos on YouTube at the same time gave me a lot of great dejavu. The background information on the respective programmers, graphic designers and musicians is also very interesting, although there could have been a little more of it. I bought the first two parts together and am looking forward to the third part being released.

    5 Star Review  Great quality book with loads of photos from the Amiga demo/hacking scene. A nice little touch are the QR codes that give you direct access to the demo’s on Youtube. Fantastic customer service from Christophe who made sure my order was extremely well packed so that it arrived in pristine condition.

    5 Star Review  Livre magnifique, comme les autres ouvrages. Je suis déjà impatient de voir le prochain livre que les Editions64k vont sortir, en tout si ça reste dans le thème du rétrogaming je serais preneur, vous pouvez compter sur moi 👍🏻👍🏻 PS: j’espère qu’il y aura une version numérique PDF.

    5 Star Review  I received my books after a rather longer than expected shipping delay but as soon as I unpacked my order of all 4 available books - all worries were gone:
    - Pristine Quality
    - Beautifully done and more-than-awesome layout
    - Packaged professionally, not a single dent in any of the books

    I'm in awe at the pure beauty of these books and it's wonderful content. For the asked price, this is beyond anyone's expectations!
    Don't think too long, put them in the basket and buy them - you won't regret!

    Une version dans la langue de Molière aurait été un plus pour moi.
