Atariscne.Org
Dear visitor,

as you've probably noticed, the DHS.NU site have slowly but steady become less and less updated with news over the last decade or so, to the point that it's only a handful of articles every year.

There are many factors playing in, but the most important have been that we need more editors, but a home cooked and unflexible way to update the site with new content have been a show stopper.

But now, things change. A bunch of Atari demoscene veterans have joined forces to remedy the sitation. We've opened a new site for news about the Atariscene world. We hope it will be successful and live for many years to come.

DHS.NU will become a read only site in steps, starting with the news section. There are 1717 articles in the archive spanning thirty years. We'll show a few random articles here on the front page and in the archive you can browse year over year.

We'd like to thank everyone who has visited DHS.NU to read demoscene news over the years and hope you'll find Atariscne.org a good replacement!


Blast from the past
(random news articles from 1995-2025)

Noice back with VCS/2600 demo November 13th, 2011
Noice released a new Atari VCS/2600 demo at Sillyventure.

Fullscreen dotsphere, plasma, cool music and good tempo makes it a really enjoyable production.

Silly Venture 2020+1 Summer August 24th, 2021
As most of you probably know, Silly Venture 2020+1 Summer took place last weekend in Gdansk, Poland.

The party was a hybrid of physical/online with a special supporter ticket if you wanted to vote without being at the party place.

We saw what could probably be seen as the best graphics competitions in Atari history. Very very good entries for XL, ST and Falcon. Then KK of Altair surprised many with an STe-port of his (work in progress) Dread Amiga game, that's a texturemapped FPS, somewhere between Wolf3D and Doom with very Doom-like style.

And finally there were some incredible demos shown, as expected from Silly Venture. The winning demos in the Lynx and ST demo compos are simply incredible. The Lynx demo defies all reason, did they not realise that's an 8-bit 65sc02 machine from 1989 they are working with?? Madness. And finally, most have likely seen it already but The Overlanders made a comeback! And holy cow what a comeback. Over ten minutes of effects, design, music and graphics of superb-quality. That's an incredible demo and it's wonderful to see Overlanders back after 22 years (don't forget the screen in Nostalic-o-demo :-)).

The releases are showing up bit by bit as does video recordings. Check out the links below to watch/download!

Thanks to all the guys doing these pictures, musics, demos, intros, games and what not, you're awesome! And double thanks the Silly Venture crew who served us with the online stream. Finally thanks to the guys who showed up for the Jitsi evening while watching the compos, had a great time :)

GERP 2020 February 10th, 2020
This years Gerp demo party in Skövde, Sweden took place over the weekend. Apart from the usual suspects we saw newcomer group Bitbendaz release their first Atari production in cooperation with Rift.

Rift doubled up by also releasing a music demo for Atari STe machines consisting of many 'chip modules'. All those strange effect commands and short sample loops required re-programming of the Lance Protracker player.

Finally the third and last Atari release at Gerp was an invitation intro for Sommarhack 2020 made by SMFX, New Beat and DHS, running on Falcon 030.

Compo update December 5th, 1999
Torment sent in an intro a little too late, however I decided to let it be in the compo anyway as there were so few intros.
