Apollo VAMPIRE Demo Compo for Amiga 40

 Attention Amiga Coders - We are back once again!!!

This competition is open to all Demo coders, both those that have and use a VAMPIRE and those that don't.

The Jam

It's simple, make an Amiga Demo that runs on the Vampire V4 Standalone.

If the Demo takes advantage of the VAMPIRE Saga Chipset then that's even better.

This Jam is for all Amigas, OCS, ECS, AGA or SAGA chip set.

If you have any DOUBTS or QUESTIONS regarding the Demo Challenge please ASK.

All questions are welcome on the dedicated discord channel #phaze101-jams

Technical Requirements

The demo needs to run on the Apollo Vampire V4.

All Demos will be run in a "clean" environment, booting into Apollo OS where the Demo will be executed.

The Demo will be tested on an Apollo V4 Standalone with 512MB of RAM running on the Apollo OS.

  • The Demo needs to be provided as a single directory folder that does not require anything else to run.
  • No other libraries or data types are needed for it to run, all files must be in that same directory.
  • Going into the demo’s directory and starting the main executable must be the only necessary step to watch the demo.
  • Assigns and installation scripts are forbidden.
  • State the executable name of your demo.

Make sure your production works on Apollo OS.

Pressing either the left mouse button or ESC has to end the demo immediately.

Deadline and Submission

Participants must send their Demo by midnight 11th October 2025 to the Phaze101 Discord group by a DM to Phaze101.

Happy programming and good luck! 🎰
