RUN - AABBCCDDEFGHIJKLMNOPRSTVWYZ/]_ "$&')+-/13568:<> - ...YES,ITS THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN WHEN PEOPLE GET ALL MUSHY ABOUT AN IMAGE CREATED BY A COMPANY THAT MAKES CARBONATED SOFT DRINKS...! WELCOME TO THE COSINE ENTRY FOR THE 2002 CHRISTMAS DEMO COMPETITION CALLED --- SNATA --- NO,I DONT REALLY DO THE WHOLE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT THING - WHY DO YOU ASK? THIS PART IS CLOSE TO A YEAR OLD AND WAS ORIGINALLY PUT TOGETHER AROUND THE WIRED PICTURE AFTER I SAW THE SCREENSHOT OF EYETHS FULL-SCREEN FLI DEMO FOR THE SUPER CPU. HIS PICTURE WAS TERRIBLE SO GROEPAZ AND I SPENT A NIGHT ON IRC FINDING A SIMILAR IMAGE ON THE WEB AND JUST WIRING IT OVER AND OVER TO MAKE DIFFERENT VERSIONS (NONE OF WHICH WERE AS BAD!) AND ONE QUICK COLOURISATION LATER I HAD THIS. THE CODE FOR THE SCROLL WAS BORROWED FROM THE BOUFF DEMO I DID LAST YEAR,THE REU SPLITTER (YOU DO HAVE AN REU TO SEE THE SPLITS IN THE UPPER AND LOWER BORDERS,RIGHT...? NO,NOR DO I BUT THE REU EMULATION IN VICE SHOULD WORK) WAS BUILT TO TEST IF IT WAS POSSIBLE TO WRITE TO D020 ONCE A CYCLE AND THEN INCLUDED TO PARODY EYETHS DEMO REQUIRING AN SCPU TO RUN. FINALLY,THE MUSIC WAS BANGED TOGETHER BASED ON THE AMIGA MODS FROM THE GAME SANTAS XMAS CAPER AND THEN ALL SYSTEMS WERE GO FOR RELEASE...! BUT FOR SOME REASON,I DIDNT GET AROUND TO PUTTING IT OUT,SO WHEN THE COMPO WAS ANNOUNCED THIS YEAR I JUST DUG OUT THE SOURCE AND MADE A FEW ADJUSTMENTS TO RELEASE IT. THIS ONE IS DEDICATED TO EYETH FOR THE INSPIRATION (AND THE LAUGH) THE PIC IN HIS SCPU DEMO GAVE ME... ALL CREDITS FOR CODE,REU PRODDING,WIRING,SCROLLTEXT,SARCASM AND MUSICAL ERM...
