Here is a 2020 XMas release, that showed up on Christmas Eve. It is a little late for me to add into the 25ish days of Christmas, but I found a few minutes to get this in on Christmas Day.

We have arrived at Christmas day! And with that, here is a demo released December 24, 2009 from Blinddar, called X-Mas Demo 2009 that was targeted for the Atari STe.

And so it begins! Again! The Christmas season will soon be upon us! Here is the first of 25 days or so of Atari demos. This time there will be ST, STe, and Falcon demos. I can't say they are all Christmas-themed demos this time. Some just have Christmas in the name, it seems. Here we have 'Christmas' by Flash.

Uncharted: Nate's Theme - Greg Edmonson - Chiptune Cover [007] (5x YM2149 PSG)

This is the last post of this type before the Christmas posts start rolling in on December 1st. Here is a tune that some may recognize: "Nate's Theme" from Naughty Dog's Uncharted series of games. This is another tune that I left on the cutting room floor, as I was unhappy with the lack of instrumental depth after chopping so much out for the 3 channel YM.
