Presented here is a Megademo for the Atari ST from Squadron X called "Twilight Zone Megademo." I can't say I have previously seen this demo mentioned, although it was released in 1992, and I was extremely busy with life by then!
The demo consists of a total of 9 screens besides the selection menu, 7 of which are demos and 2 that are more informational screens. A nice effort.
All screens have had their scroll texts transcribed, and will be available on the blog post (or see below).
This video was captured on June 3, 2018.
The demo was played on an Atari 1040 STf, TOS 1.4, 1MB, equipped with a CosmosEX from Jookie.
A Best Electronics ST Monitor to VGA cable was used, connected to an OSSC 1.6 (processing the video in Line4x mode), with the output being captured by a Startech USB3HDCAP.
Video was edited with Shotcut.
