sounds for the senses, but none more incredible (in my opinion) than kkrieger; a playable 3D FPS that compacts into just 96KB created by German demo group Farbrausch (theprodukkt). I'm fascinated by this, so it was amazing to get the chance to speak to some of the developers and designers of this monumental release and find out just how and why it was made. #fps #demoscene #kkrieger Massive thanks to the demoscene legends; giZMo and ryg for their help & resources on this video. giZMo: https://twitter.com/chris_muetze ryg: https://twitter.com/rygorous 00:00 The demoscene 04:17 Farbrausch pre-kkrieger 07:27 Procedural texture generation 10:04 Integrated ad 10:51 Using external libraries 12:19 Bump maps and meshes 13:30 Tools of the trade (Werkkzeug) 14:36 Character modelling 16:34 Reducing the code size 20:31 Detail work 23:03 Compression 24:38 Gameplay 25:26 kkrieger final 26:47 TheProdukkt is no more 28:01 Credits 🔗Video Links🔗 BreakPoint 04 Site: https://breakpoint.untergrund.net/2004/general.php .theprodukkt: https://web.archive.org/web/20040810211758/http://www.theprodukkt.com/theprodukkt.html#tech The Farbrausch way: https://llg.cubic.org/docs/farbrauschDemos/ Research Gate: https://www.researchgate.net/figure/The-game-kkrieger-has-a-file-size-of-96-kb_fig1_320722498 Breakpoint 2004: https://breakpoint.untergrund.net/2004/ Assembly seminars '04: https://web.archive.org/web/20041204090344/http://www.assembly.org/ fiver2's website: http://www.theunitedstatesofamerica.de/ ryg's homepage: http://www.farbrausch.com/~fg/ gizmo's website: http://www.pixelz.de/ "Metaprogramming for madmen": https://fgiesen.wordpress.com/2012/04/08/metaprogramming-for-madmen/ kkrieger interview from 2004: https://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/130690/interview_frugal_fragging_with_.php Interview from 2005: https://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/130690/interview_frugal_fragging_with_.php Github code: https://github.com/farbrausch/fr_public/blob/master/werkkzeug3/genmesh.cpp 🏆 Support 🏆 Support my channel, get exclusive videos & perks, as well as an ad and sponsor free experience at https://www.patreon.com/nostalgianerd from just $1 🏪 NN Shop & Affiliate Links! 🏪 My eBay Shop: https://nnerd.es/NerdShop (Now Re-open!)
