Prodatron Megademo menu part

Prodatron Megademo has been written in summer 1992 by Prodatron while he joined the international demo group BENG!. It was was one of the biggest one-man demo production on CPC and contains intro-, menu-, turndisc- and copy-part, six main-parts and two cheat-parts.

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 Logon System, so there are no ripper credits.
  • Loader: A nice loader-screen appears between every part. It lists the credits for the next part.
  • Menu: The menupart was the first one I coded for the megademo. It contains nice zooming 3D-numbers.
  • Constellation: The constellation-part shows my first sinus-scroller and nice lissajous-figures. It was the only part in the megademo, which only based on software-effects.
  • Hurly Burly: The Hurly-Burly-Party contains the most scroller I ever coded on CPC. It was really a bit hurly-burly... :-)
  • Matchwood: In my opinion the matchwood-part was the worst part of the megademo. Some moving balls, a hardscroll and a sinus-ghostwriter.
  • Game!: [...]
  • Rasterball: The Rasterball-Part was my favourite part. I couldn't take a screen-shot with the rasterball and the splittraster-scroll, because the emulator doesn't support it. Very good music from Atari ST.
  • 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 nice Atari ST sounds and six moving 3"-discs.
  • Copy part: The megademo hasn't a special filesystem but copyparts where IN, so I needed one, too. A little copytool with nice music.
  • Cheat part: [...]
  • Star-Tracker: This part was just a joke, but many people believed it. Well, I didn't know, that a digitracker becomes reality one year later.';
