Love the Drive/Nightcrawler vibes!

Nice intro!
This is fantastic. Even the synthwave style music.
Night drive always ok
Really fantastic mood. Now make it interactive. ;o)
Amazing visuals with great music. Nice job!
yay! love that you finished it finally :)
great vibes

Looks and sounds really nice. I also like that the design and the mood are quite low key - just like a good night drive.
Wow.. amazing 8k!
The trees, the details on the motobike, the lighting, the music, the direction.. works super well.
The only thing I see that didn't work so well is the motion blur, appart from that it's perfect.

I was thinking... yeah.. ok but not that strong as previous 64k shown in the compo, only to realize that this is 8kB not 64kB. It should go one up together with the current 2nd place if only Farbed-brush didn't colorize peoples' mind with some tricked ecstasy drug during the compo.
and thumb up of course that I missed to click properly in the previous comment!
quite moody
I was the first non-author to watch (a part of) this prod ! :D
but seriously, it turned out very kool. Clear thumb!

Wow, like the vibes!
oh nice!
nice idea and soundtrack
I saw a god in the details, especially the shaft of the light from the bike. Nice soundtrack also!
What a vibe! Incredible amount of perfect little detais, too. <3
Another great production by the 4k/8k masters.
awesome!
Should have won in lengths.
soundtrack and visual are nice.

Thank you all for the feedback.
Reading this comment (and the other similar feedback) made my day. Until the very last moment I wasn't sure we had managed to hit our target, a low key mood as you put it, that would resonate with the audience. :)
I've only noticed today that we broke it at some point. It was supposed to be a combination of stochastically offsetting the time for each pixel, and doing an additive blending with previous frames, which should have resulted in a reasonable motion blur. But for some reason the stochastic part only affects the bike, and not the environment.

This is awesome, my friends! And the windy jacket gives so much to this prod. And cool track, virgill.
cool stuff!
clever use of the bytes: great mood & nice job for the very realistic result.
Maybe a little bit more variations in the second part would have made this one even better..
overall, top notch 8kb.

The reason I find this prod fascinating is because it shows that direction is more than just cinematography and editing, it's also narrative and cohesion, both of which this prod lacks; sure, it's well shot, well lit, looks great, but the music doesn't fit the visuals and it goes nowhere and says nothing.
There's a ton of good effort here and a lot of great detail (the clothes flutter!), but it feels like an exegfx with a soundtrack bolted on.

OK.
First fluttering clothes effect in 8K!
What Gargaj said in principle but then again sometimes you just want to get on your motorcycle and cruise for miles with a cool synthwave track on.
Nice
Cozy mood, well done.
Not what Gargaj said. Pointless plot in intros is actually more than ok, as opposed to yet another "world gonna break" pseudo-message.
At the end it's just fun to watch, which is all that matters.
Also 8k rulz, I wonder if anyone tried 16k.

fantastic 8k! I love the mood! thanks for releasing it at deadline, I love synthwave. boy, it was such an epic, diverse compo this year.
Nice one!
I wanna see more 8k intros which don't feel like a failed 4k intro.

such attention to details!
It may "go nowhere" and have several obvious deficits, but it's way better than the fr-minus that won this compo.
