A pony video my friend made

OK, follow me here. Back in the day, before 3-d hardware accelerators became the norm for computers, groups would put out video packages to show how well the hardware that did exist could handle fancy effects, as well as being pretty to look at. Twenty years ago, one of the best was called Second Reality by a group called Future Crew.

Twenty Years later, we live in the era of Ponify Everything.

My best friend, who I've known since, well, before the original video came out, has been spending his nights and weekends working on this. As you watch it, just think about how difficult some of this is to program.

It's also cool.

I remember when this kind of stuff was "Sonic the Hedgehog" bonus levels. Wow.

Not only was this really cool, it combined two of my favorite things: Derpy and reflections of reflections. Thanks for sharing, and thanks to your friend for the time and dedication that so clearly went into this.

That kinda reminded me of a pony version the game LSD: Dream Emulator especially that fly by with Twilight at the end. Still it was really neat I thank you for sharing it PJ.

Oh wow, Second Reality. That really takes me back! I remember seeing Future Crew's "Second Reality" and "Unreal" and such back when they came out. For the time, it was super impressive! If I recall, the files were really tiny as well.

That was pretty awesome.

Now, that's what geeky should be.
