This guy is incredible!

Please see if this demo can be included in official GBA Core update

His ROM can be downloaded from GitHub in the description of the video:

What do you mean by include a game into a core update?
Download the rom put it into the GBA rom folder and enjoy?

I know, what I mean is because it is a terrific tech demo but because it is not a main release, probably not well know and probably (hopefully not) never will, If included in update script like all the Arcade rom would get more people to know that there is this project and developer.

It's not a game yet, though. If it was a finished game you could submit it to retrobrews on github.

It's a great achievement but there were commercial games for GBA that were even more impressive, eg. https://youtu.be/Y6QtoZcYhi4

He has done some other GBA demos already, all of them for some youtube clicks, then never updated and sourcecode never released.

While this may be a good achievement, it's dead already, unfortunatly.

I see, thanks guys! (The realtime 3D lighting is incredible, still )

Would be awesome to see more tech demos possible thanks to these awesome cores. For example the Genesis core is able to handle probably the most complex tech demo ever made for mega-drive (Triton's "Overdrive II"), even using undocumented video registers and all other kinds of crazy tricks. It's very exciting to see how better tools means a democratization of ideas and even more exciting advances past the state-of-art that comes with it.

For example, there are other awesome GBA demos which seem to run great on MiSTer. This one even seems to take advantage of the turbo mode if you enable it, which is fantastic! (note: it has some foul language and one suggestive placement of a camera lens, but it is otherwise mostly tame. And at any rate, it's fun to see awesome GBA megademos running on MiSTer.)
