Not sure what you made but it wont boot in WinUAE even. Complains about lack of memory. I dont think you made the image correctly

From a quick skim of this thread, you might need 040, and do some other things.
Also, I needed to set 64MB Z3 RAM in WinUAE to just get to the decrunching screen.

Well if its a 40 based demo then the Core wont run it.

It doesn´t seem to be a demo for a "mundane" Amiga but for a high end 040/060 CPU based one. So, unfortunately, it won´t work at all.

Yeah this is a high end Amiga demo. Played this a number of times on a 68060 Amiga.
If it even ran on a 68020 then I expect it would almost be a slideshow as the CPU won't have enough grunt.
I also had a feeling that many high end demos utilise the built in FPU of the full 68040 and 060 models.
