This magnificent masterpiece works on 1996-era PCs but not so much on newer ones. If you find yourself running it on DOSBox, have your fingers on the Ctrl and F11/F12 keys because you'll have to change the cycle speed while it runs.

Initial setting: 10000
"CACK" white title screen: 100000 (the box needs to fully draw before the end of the music pattern)
The rest: around 25000 - except the "Cack" explosion, which works better around 50000.

And bear in mind most of the effects came from a 10-minute Quickbasic coding compo.
