I downloaded these demos from BBS back in the early 90s, the scene is fucking great.

This one won Assembly 1993, it's not a tiny demo like the one you linked, this one is a "demo" as they call these ones, more bigger but still awesome:
It's considered by many the best demo ever made on PC (the scene started in the Amiga if I recall correctly), due to the amount of shit it did with a 386 processor and 4 megabytes of RAM. And remember, no hardware accelerator, those didn't exist yet.
Some of the guys that made that demo are in Remedy Entertainment (Max Payne, Alan Wake).
In http://www.pouet.net you can find all these demos and intros, most are for Windows but they have YouTube videos on most linked from that site.
- don't cringe much at the pixel art, remember these guys were working on DOS back then :)ernexbcn
