3. About TEMPESTA ║
══════════════════╝
Tempesta is the first DEMO ever made by Soft-One on a PC.
We finished it in 4 months, unfortunately in a great hurry and, as usual,
it's missing of some parts we would have liked to include.
We hope you will enjoy this demo. We put in it a lot of enthusiasm and
spare-time.
For running Tempesta, you should need the following configuration:
- i80486DX/33 or better;
- 4 mb of RAM;
- 3.2 mb of hard disk space;
- a soundcard (GUS, SB, SB Pro, SB16).
Please also keep in mind the following things:
- Your PC must run without any 386 control program (such as
EMM386, QEMM, 386MAX, UMB.SYS, etc.)
- Tempesta won't run without a soundcard. This because of the
music synchronization that couldn't be performed if no
soundcard is present on the machine.
4. About Soft-One Productions ║
══════════════════════════════╝
Soft-One Productions was founded in 1991 by Rasterburner and TheRock
as an intro group on the C-64 scene.
In 1992 Killer Loop, Cedar and Negative joined Soft-One.
Cedar entered in the C-64 section, Negative joined as musician
and Killer Loop in the PC section.
Afterwards, also Rasterburner joined the PC section, changing his
handle into Raindrop, and we started releasing some intros on the PC.
Then school took everyone too much time. Soft-One didn't release
anything for more than a year, except some internal-use utilities (we
still don't know if we will ever release them).
Now, it's time for Tempesta. Look and judge yourself, but please
remember that life is fun, so if you don't like it, don't blame us.

8. How to become distribution site ║
═══════════════════════════════════╝

If you can meet that requirements, send mail to KiLLER LOOP (see section
