code: Mixer, CLF, BX, gfx: Grony, BX, CLF, music: Mixer, Zardax, Maniacs
of Noise (ripped), IQ64 and Predator/Moz(IC)Art/Shape.
review: This demo seems very preoccupied with scrollers, and offers a
variety of them - DYCPs, DYSPs and even a nice wobbly char variation
overlaid on rasters. The opening sequence with a 3d starfield is also
nice, but the rest is merely average. Not at all bad, but far from
terribly exciting. Presumably not released at a party, at least there is
no text to indicate it. Can't find any release date. [glenn]

Released for the Assembly 93 demo competition.
review: This is a one-screen demo from Origo, a bit on the small side for
a four year celebration it seems, but on the other hand the quality is
quite outstanding! =) It opens with a textzoomer introducing the demo,
then launches into the main part: A picture of a beastly face with nasty
fangs appears, over which fast filled vectors appear! It's all done
realtime, and the speed seems quite acceptable. It does get blocky when
the vectors are zoomed too much, but it's still great for 1993! There is a
normal, 8x8 pixel scroller at the bottom of the screen, much like most
other partyscrollers. A nice little production, that leaves me wanting to
see more!
Zardax' music is a great piece, titled "Anglia Spirit", and can be found
at $e300. Melodic and beautiful, it is the perfect soundtrack for the
demo. Text in the memory suggests it's an older tune, copyrighted 1990,
with the player copyrighted 1992. The demo is a single file. [glenn]
