Well, this i just a little compilation of Copper routines I made in time ...
I didn't really plan to do something REAL with it, until I realized that we
couldn't finish our demo, as planned, for The Party III :(
So I got some pictures/fonts together and assembled this piece of art.
I'm sorry for there's no music, but I was first thinking of using our
SB Player, and realized too late, that NO soundblaster routine can be as
fast to compete up with fullscreen copper effects. Then I made a simple fast
Adlib player at the first day of the party; which didn't sound very well
altogether. With only few hours away from the deadline I was forced to
release it without sound, since the alternative would have been BAD sound,
letting people grip to the Reset keys ;)

Some word about the routines used in this intro:

Every thing's a Copper Effect, either thru palette or other registers.
Every thing's also SUPPOSED to run on a 386SX-16 ( so they told me ),
but you know what a slow VGA can be to this :(
3 different graphics modes are used in there, and none of them is standard.
The 3D scroller function in the end is a nondocumented function of
standard-VGAs :)

Anyway, this is now out. And I have to say a final word about some of the
routines:

The two ball-filled screen zoomers and the overlaying checker boards were
not original by me; but I got the inspiration from some preview routines of
S!P's demo ( which will be out the same time ). As I said, I didn't really
think of releasing them when I coded it; but somehow it went this way ...

I'll type no longer, I'm really dried out since I'm without sleep since 2
days ... So, enjoy!

And, if you want the source code, send me $30 and you'll get it right away.
