The nice piece of music playing in the background was composed by Daze. The
little bits of design were done mostly by Gimle, Fithcew and Mirror. The
original script was done by Gimle & Mirror. The Player is coded by Proffa.
The dentro was linked into one .exe with XLINK by The Coexistence, because our
own exe-linker isn't ready yet (we're working on it!) Also, the player bugs a
bit, but it will be corrected in the next release. (It will also have .S3M and
SB support then)

This demo was also supposed to have a self-modifying code crypter, but..
It didn't exactly work with XLINK .. hehe..

We will release propably release the next revision of our .MOD and .S3M player
as a separate player soon, it plays all effects right and also features bass
boosting.

We have been active since 1992 when the group was founded by Tonic and Gimle
joined in quite early. The group was then called Eterno and we released a lot
of BAD productions. (Hey, you gotta start somewhere!) At assembly '93 we had
grown to a bigger group. The active members were : Tonic, Gimle, Posk
and Sulphur. We also had a Swapper back then who now runs ASG and is still a
generally cool dude :).. We have had as much as 13 members when we a smaller
group joined us, but it didn't actually work out 'cause the members of the other
group (no names mentioned) were such nerds.. (We don't like nerds) Then we
have steadily grown to be what we are today. (Too bad Sulphur left us though..)
We have released a lot of demos and intros.. Over 20 if i'm not wrong. But, we
are what we are and have never gathered much success.. The best results at
parties are :

The Party '93 Intro compo :

7th Place with TYPHOID

The Party '94 Demo compo :

9th Plave with &I

Juhla '95 Demo compo :

8th Place with SŽŽTŽJŽ (it was an intro, not a demo!)


We also have had and have some game projects.
