                  - a 4KB intro for the Assembly '94 party -

    About COMe!                                                            ║

        This  short  intro  needs  at  least 386-based computer, and a quite
    fast  VGA  board  is  recommended. All parts run at full framerate on my
    386DX40  machine  with  a  16-bit  bus  Trident  8900CL  (6500  chr/ms).
    Anyway,  I  preferred  size  optimization to speed optimization for some
    reason...

        Every  ideas  concerning  any  kind  of  design  had  to  be trashed
    immediately  because  of  the limited size. So this time it is pure code
    with no clothes on...

        I   realized  that  if  COMe!  is  started  from  DOS  Navigator  II
    (shareware  version),  then  it  sometimes  gives  an error message, and
    does  not  run.  I  am  sure  it  is  a  bug with Dos Navigator's memory
    management,  and  has  nothing  to  do with this beautiful piece of art.
    (Please  don't  vomit  on  your  keyboard  while watching...) Anyway, if
    you try again, it will work.

        The  plasma  may  flicker  on  slow computers and VGA cards. I don't
    care about it, since the compo machine is fast enough...

        The  intro  plays  no  music  because  of  the rules of the compo at
    Assembly. I think some AdLib-style rasp should have been allowed...

        From Zed/ReMaL to:

    Grif  team:  Good  luck  with  your  demo!  It  is the best Hungarian PC
        demo  ever,  besides  Show.  I  hope  to  see  it among the top 3 at
        Assembly.

    Alma/Grif:  You  are  one  of  my  best friends. Have a good swim in the
        Baltic Sea!

    Ratt/Grif:  I  hope  we  have  no problems any more! Why don't you visit
        me some time? I'm at home almost any time.

    Rian/Grif: Your musics rule!

    Addict/Topaz  Beerline:  Have  you  received  my letter? I'm waiting for
        your answer.

    SB/ReMaL:  Good  luck  with  your  4KB intro! I hope you could finish it
        on the bus to the party. (Laptops are cool!)

    Maxwood/Majic  12:  Having  a  REAL secret part in Show was great. I was
        laughing  for  about  5  minutes after reading the infofile! Anyway,
        I love the demo's dynamic style and of course Rack's graphics.

    Slayer/Source EXtended: Keep on making cool metal and rave tunes!

    All  coders  who  move  from C64 to PC: Show the lazy PC coders what you
        are capable of!
