pandemic
is the 2nd production from byterapers
on the pc computer platform and heavenish
cracker only knows the overall serial
number. it was glued together during the
week before abduction'97 and hurriedly
patched to working condition few hours
before the deadline. following the set
tradition of 'no hurry we got to consume
a few beers first' the audience was let to
wait for the final version that might even
work on some computers not using some certain
pieces of hardware.
this is now the final pandemic

this is the byterapers history bit
Byterapers - the reason for your erection - The Story!
Byterapers' history spans from the year 1986, when
four little would-be fellas started using name
"Byterapers" on their small releases. In two years group
had grown into multi-national and rather famous,
starting 1988 on Amiga. In 1989 the group stopped C-64
activities and concentrated on making career on the
Amiga, making rather well there as well. Around
1991-1992 group started a long sleep, resting from
earlier efforts and doing a lot of own inner stuff,
picnics, ByteParties etc but never finishing any products.
From this six year period Byterapers, known in short as
(B), had released around 150 demos on C-64, not counting
intros or other small stuff, a countless number of cracks
and all-time high position as No:6 in world's
cracking-group charts (an activity which was later banned
and stopped completely), seven musicdisks on Amiga, about
20 Amiga-demos not counting intros and other small stuff,
bunch of weird fun-releases an uncontested fame of heavy
partydudes always drunk, noisy, doing strange stuff,
looking strange, wandering from bar to bar but overall
being quite harmless.
(B) made comeback in 1994 by releasing the C-64 World of Code
-demo in spring'94. This resulted in many scene-awards like:
-comeback of the year
-demogroup of the year
-demo of the year
-coder of the year
Products like the World of Code -series (WOC, WOC 2, WOC 3),
Extremes and Follow The Sign III are top notch releases
on C-64 -demoscene, and our six latest entries in
democompetitions have gained five wins and one second place.
Today Byterapers works actively on the C-64 and PC-platforms.
While not exactly active demomakers, we hop on parties and
enjoy our lives to the fullest. 1997 looks good for Byterapers.
The Web-pages are up and easily the most comprehensive
group-pages in Finland, and we are planning to release new
PC/C-64 demos at approxiate times.
You can find lots more information from the official
(B) website at http://www.iwn.fi/byterapers
