isolated, in sunlight is a Windows scene demo made for the Revision 2020 Party demo competitions. It is not very exciting or very impressive, it is, in fact, kind of boring. The only remotely interesting about it is that it's a piece of Windows software with graphics which makes it a fun thing to test in Wine staging and development versions just to see if it runs or not.
isolated, in sunlight can run on resolutions between 1024x768 and 4K (selectable from a start-up menu). It is not very well optimized, parts of the demo will load even higher-end graphics cards at 100% displaying nothing very impressive or advanced and parts of it will run just fine at high resolutions on modest hardware.
Graphics back-end[edit]
WINEDEBUG=+d3d,fixme-all,warn+cursor,+relay wine isolated.exe reveals that it uses 32-bit OpenGL.

Wow, it feels good to release a demo again. Somehow,
in the middle of a busy life, career a toddler and
a quarantine, there was a bit of time to work on
things again. I wasn't supposed to make anything
for Revision, not really having followed the scene
for a while, but Revision being moved to an online
made it possible to participate in a proper way. I
am quite pleased with the result even if it was done
quickly and on top of a demo engine upgrade started
in 2017, which made things quite a bit more difficult
than they should have been. Sometimes you start going
to a place and find yourself somewhere completely
different, and it feels all right. This is one of
those times.
Finally, I would like to extend my special love and
gratitude to Romeo Knight for picking up the
soundtrack duty on an extremely short notice and
making a killer job of it. This demo would not exist
without you.
Stay safe.
