Review by Glenn Lunder
I was quite astounded when viewing this intro from a group I'd never even heard of before, and finding it to be totally excellent! It opens with a convincing flame effect in a small box in the middle of the screen. Then the introtext is flashed in flames, before we go on to some fractal images waving, still in the same box. Next, the entire screen is used for a bouncing texturemapped cube, bouncing in front of and behind the animated background pillars! This looks very nice, and the cube is soon relieved by a more complex object. Next was something else I hadn't expected; a fast phong torus, with motionblur! It was far less commonplace with advanced routines like phong back in 1995. A few other, less interesting effects follow, including one with a picture of Al Bundy next to it, for no apparent reason :) Very very nice... when are these guys going to do a demo? tested A1200/030-50/2mb chip, 16mb fast/3.0.
