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. Unfortunately only after the release Prodatron has been informed, that these Atari ST sounds have been ripped by Fefesse for Logon System, so there are no ripper credits.
• Loader: A loader screen appears between every part. It lists the credits for the next part.
• Menu: The menupart contains zooming 3D-numbers.
• Constellation: The constellation-part shows sinus-scroller and lissajous-figures. It is the only part in the megademo, which only based on software-effects.
• Hurly Burly: The Hurly-Burly-Party contains a big 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 little 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.
