  • 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  Great book about the early years of Psygnosis (up until 1993) with lots of interviews. With lots of screenshots and package-shots, this also works perfectly as a coffee-table book. Highly recommended. Delivery was really quick and in a sturdy package, so the book arrived in perfect condition.

  • 5 Star Review  Amazing art book and a must have for all demoscene lovers. My son gifted me one for Christmas and he was blown away to see that it included a logo made by Cupid for our little comeback demo that he had seen me working on the code for days 😉
    Thanks for the quality print and for preserving and spreading the demoscene spirit !
    Grab your copy now, that’s a neat piece of history !
