║ Well it's that time of the year again, the end of it to be exact. :-) Mad  │
║ shopping sprees, the burning of Xmas merchandise, drink driving await as   │
║ well as the traditional end of the year release from AM!                   │
║                                                                            │
║ This 4k was started by NOR at the Coven 98 blitz competition. It was months│
║ later that I was able to do more work on it. After watching a few 4k       │
║ productions which featured music I decided to give Reality's AdLib tracker,│
║ Rad, a go and to my surprise the music and the player still left me quite  │
║ a lot of space to squeeze in a few effects. This is the result of about a  │
║ month of on and off coding. The music is not much to listen to but it is   │
║ the best I could do under the size restrictions. The 4k contains a         │
║ significantly cut-down version of Reality's Rad player coded by            │
║ Shayde/Reality while the rest of the code is by me.                        │
║                                                                            │
║ The program should run under MS-DOS utilising anything with a co-prossesor │
║ and a VGA gfx adapter but I do recommend a fast setup to really enjoy some │
║ effects. Windows 95/NT/98 is not recommended. A sound card is also a good  │
║ thing to have installed. Any old AdLib compatible should work. An AdLib    │
║ emulator for Gravis, however, is not worth the bother.                     │
║                                                                            │
║ I would like to thank, RubiXcom for his suggestions and some help on       │
║ optimising the program.                                                    │
