Good morning, sunshine! After @revisionparty@icosahedron.website 's coffee machine killed our network last night ( ❤️ ), we finally have the fuel you need to hit the deadline!
The first 3 places of every compo will be able to pick a DVD from @shana@chaos.social 's and @psykon@icosahedron.website 's 20-ish favourite b-horror-movies - with the winners getting to chose one of our themed Cowees, of course! :)

Want to have the most adorable haunting at home? The first places will receive one of our Cowees, exclusively inspired by some horror movie classics this year.

The #mountainbytes partysystem is open for submissions now - send us a message for an access key to compete remotely!

Only 1 week to go, until we are live with a new edition of #mountainbytes! How are your entries coming along? :)
We're already warming up this weekend at the #winterkongress of @digiges@mastodon.social with our own #demoscene & chill corner, as well as showing off our awesome movie posters!

Our #mountainbytes2026 mentor team has grown, given the popularity of our Demolab! Whether you want to make your very first demo, explore a new platform or just enjoy making a party production in a supportive environment: please pre-register by buying your ticket and ticking the box for workshop participation.
Thanks also to all the musicians who provided us with music for our participants to use in their first production!

Want to make sure you still get hold of our #mountainbytes2026 shirt? They are only available in pre-order for pick-up on site, so make sure you order yours until January 31st!
(And yes, as we've received some requests: if you can't come but still want a shirt, we can either bring it to Revision or ship it over to you if you cover the cost. Just make a note in the order form.)

So, which one is your favourite horror movie trope?
We are looking forward to your awesome releases at #mountainbytes2026 : the Cowees with this year's special theme designs are waiting for you!

By now, it's become a bit of a tradition that #mountainbytes hosts interesting live acts from beyond the #demoscene but still close in spirit, and: we did it again!
We are overjoyed to bring @BaumannBergmannPokinsson@mastodon.social all the way from Hamburg to play their first-ever gig in Switzerland!

🐮❤️🐧(little insider joke for those in-the-know)

We not only had a fantastic evening at @vcfe_ch@mastodon.social in Solothurn yesterday, but also went to #comparade #demoparty and released a little something!
Here is our #mountainbytes invitation in its full glory, thanks to everyone who contributed movie poster designs!
You will be able to appreciate all of them live on our walls in February, of course! :)
