Hi there (Selectanovel^Moodsplateau)

[Novel]

Hi everybody,

my name is Matthias and I live in Hamburg, Germany. I'm a musician (Protracker) and member of the amiga demoscene group moodsplateau. I remember having played around with Easy Amos back in the 90s when it was released on some british Amiga magazine. After having tried to make my own graphic adventure I gave up because I didn't want to read into coding and understanding formulas (I was a teenager back then and totally against maths).

Now that I'm in the demoscene since 2004 I have many ideas, mostly style concepts that should be easily realised with amos. I had so much fun doing my own fun-demo (Salami Tactics - I has a demomaker - Rank 5 at breakpoint 2008) with the karate-skript engine and now I want to advance a bit from that.

There are several thing I want to achieve with amos:

- demos with lots of oldschool effects and nice still pictures
- an economic simulation like mad tv or mag (you know, those typical games where you run around in a house and basically just adjust variables all the time). I'm working on a concept here
- a beam slide system for an old school demoscene party named maximum overdose, held (almost) anually in Lübeck, Germany (and of course, an invitation for that party). That is, I want to have beamslides with Scrolltexts and animations.

Well, I guess I'm now going to work through the freshly released manual and learn how to let bobs fly around and how to open screens properly...

See you later!
