Parts
- Intro: The Intro contains a ghostwriter and two moving BENG!-logos. The best was the great music, which has been ripped from the Atari ST. The sounds contain smashing digi-drums.

- Loader: A loader screen appears between every part. It lists the credits for the next part.
- Menu: The menu part contains zooming 3D-numbers.
- Constellation: The constellation-part shows sinus-scroller and lissajous-figures. It is the only part in the megademo, that is based purely on software-effects.
- Hurly Burly: The Hurly-Burly-Party contains a large amount of scrollers.
- Matchwood: Some moving balls, a hardscroll and a sinus-ghostwriter.
- Game!: [...]
- Rasterball: [...]
- Vector Smasher: The Vector-Smasher Part contains 3D-equalizers. Very long scroll texts from different BENG! members. Contains also a small questionary-game.
- Turn disc: The two turn-disc parts with Atari ST sounds and six moving 3"-discs.
- Copy part: The megademo hasn't a special filesystem but copyparts where IN, so this megademo needed one, too. A little copytool with music.
- Cheat part: [...]
- Star-Tracker: This part was just a joke, but many people believed it. Surprisingly a Digitracker became reality one year later.
