          Kojiki or Furukotofumi, also known in English as the "Records
          of Ancient Matters", is the oldest surviving book in Japan.

          The ROM-image is slightly larger than 65536 bytes because it
          has a header for NES emulators. The executable size on the
          real machine is precisely 65536 bytes!

          The recommended emulators for viewing this demo are the latest
          versions of Nintendulator and Nestopia. All others suck at
          various parts (tricky timing, PPU tricks etc.). Do remember,
          that emulation will probably never be as accurate as the real
          hardware. Even the best emulators will fsck up some of the
          effects.

          Pressing the buttons on the gamepad may cause some interesting
          things this time. Try it out after the newsreader fades out.

          This production marks the first time we actually were able to
          develop our own production tools:

          I'm writing this at 0:35 on Friday, the day of the party. I'm
          very tired, and I have coded since 14:00. I think it's about
          finished now. This production was a big learning experience
          for me, as I actully wrote the engine almost completely from
          scratch.

          I decided I wouldn't use any leftover code from the
          Quantum Disco Brothers engine, so I'll have to call this one
          the Quantum Engine just because it looks and runs like it,
          but it actually is ways and ways better =)

          Keep the software developer flag high, signing out.
