Cool Raster Intro (1989, .05, ECS Intro)

Review by Glenn Lunder

Well, this is certainly a colorful intro! It has rasters all over the shop, bouncing bars and background colors - almost a little too much! Obviously someone learned their copper lists early =) But when you look at the credits list, everything falls into place... Corsair is of course the french coder who later made the legendary "Copper Master" for Angels (old), the copper demo to end all copper demos... In addition to this the intro contains only a large scroller in the middle of the screen with an ok font (for 1989) and nada else. Not much of a noteworthy release. Even with KillAGA, the intro suffers from a badly coded music routine that bugs on my machine.
The intro was found on Horizon's "Rack-Pack #16" pack, released at the very beginning of june 1989. From this we deduct that the intro itself was released some time during May. No release date appears inside the intro.
tested A1200/030-50/2mb chip, 16mb fast/3.1
Note: Needs KillAGA!
