Party (1988, 22.10, Demo). code: Krush, gfx: Blitz (logo), music: see review. Released for the Hexagon Copy Party demo competition. review: As they say themselves; it ain't much ;) This three-screener is pretty limited, and was likely just released to release SOMETHING at the  party. Let's quickly walk you through the parts; part one has a dot-scroll  (likely faked, just a font with dots), and a few sprites over two static  raster bars. The second part is a little better; an ok logo by Blitz  resides at the top of the screen, and the main focus is a scrollstretcher  below. We've seen it before, and it's not executed with any particular  finesse here. The final part is a particular anticlimax; a large scroll  over the background (the stretcher effect recycled?), with the word  PARTY!?! overlaid with sprites, in an especially uninspiring sinus  movement.    The only musical credits is given for part 2, which is one of Matt  Gray's tunes from the game "The Last Ninja II". Likely all pieces of music  were ripped from games. The demo is a single 70 block file, containing 3 demoparts. [glenn]
