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

    5 Star Review  Truely a good book to go through, reliving all the memories of the beautiful arts.
    The packaging was awesome for the Kickstarters (special box with extra's).

    Only wish is that the had book started earlier in time. 10 years or so. There was already excellent art being produced, also with art-packs (ascii/ansi). That could have avoided also to a wider spread in art groups and therefor less feeling of 'more of the same'.

    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  Good book and great quality. The extra add ons( bookmarks, postcards) are not worth the price though, as they are poor print quality.

    3 Star Review  Skipped the AGA edition, but holy moly…80% of this edition is still AGA!? I real disappointed for me also because OCS/ECS was major platform in last 10 years?

    5 Star Review  just amazing! so much digital art in one package! When I was leafing through the book and looking at the logos from my old Amiga days, I could sometimes hear the intro music to these artworks. 🙂

    5 Star Review  Amazing book packed with lots of memories, I forgot many of the demos/intros that entertained my childhood and this book is great to reconnect with them.
    I had a small trouble with trying to make the order but the customer service was super responsive, found the bug and fixed it so that I could order 2 copies of that book, one for my friend Ulrick and one for myself. We were both part of the Amiga demoscene at that time 1988-1992, in a French group called IRIS, and it is so nice to have access to such a book that capture this period.

    3 Star Review  Great looking T-Shirt although it's cut and fabric are on the cheaper end of the spectrum. Great memorabilia nonetheless
