Description
A demo for the Commodore 64 by Halcyon Labs, first shown at Fernstead Springs Byte Fest in 1987.
Provenance
Deposited by Eastworth Bay Demoscene Archive, which had held it unread for years. The window labels had peeled and the EPROMs had been exposed to light, so each was read many times. Reassembled from fragments spread across several carriers.
