│    All didn't start as a demo. First were two routines,   │
│    a vistapro-like voxel and a 3d shaddowed world.   We   │
│    decided   to   merge   the  two  into   a   mystical   │
│    little demo, added an introduction and an end,  then   │
│    release everything as a whole.  The result is not  a   │
│    demo. I mean : the number of sequence is unusual for   │
│    a demo  (even for an intro),  since the size of  the   │
│    file is still huge (due to the numerous 3d objects),   │
│    the tune is not of those that one can listen to in a   │
│    usual demo, the effects are not the ones that a demo   │
│    addict expects theses days (PC's bitmap sux, vectors   │
│    are our friends),  and,  worst of all,  you won't be   │
│    able to find a single donnut in it ! In a word, this   │
│    demo is not really  scene-related,  but we are still   │
│    proud of what we've done.                              │
│                                                           │
│    About  the  technical  requirements...   Well,   you   │
│    already  knew  that you needed a GUS,  but you  were   │
│    perhaps  amazed when you discovered that your Dx2-66   │
│    was on his knees trying to run  the demo.  This demo   │
│    was  NOT  coded for slow computers, but for pentiums   │
│    (P166 the better, of course).  Do not complain : our   │
│    former  megademo  (Escape)  failed to be a good  one   │
│    cause we paid too much attention to what an old  386   │
│    could handle.  Thus, this time, we decided to forget   │
│    all  about  technical restrictions. The  algorithmes   │
│    are optimised,  it's not the  matter.  The  code  is   │
│    somewhat ugly, but we ran out of time.                 │
│                                                           │
│    Next time...   Next demo from MWB is on its way yet.   │
│    It should be very scene-related, should run on every   │
│    pentiums (486 will be definitively out by that time)   │
│    and should provide new effect and the likes.           │
