OUTLINE INTROS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As a few smaller intros were released at Outline party that don't need a single
article each, you get some short words about them all together in here...
...3o CANDLES by PARADOX...
This is the first of three releases by the new formed PARADOX team. It is just a
4K intro for the ST, running on any machine up to Falcon and STEEM. As the read
me says it was thought as little birthday intro for a friend of PARANOID who was
just 3o years old. And as the title says as well, it shows 3o burning candles
flying around on the screen in form of simple sprites together with a rather
nice fire effect and that's it.
So what? Nothing very spectacular in comparison with some other 4K intros we saw
on the ST before, esp. if you remember to "4STER" for example, but
still a nice intro and the first real lifesign of PARADOX...
...RGB SPLITTER by PARADOX...
The second PARADOX release at OUTLINE needs a STE machine but will run on Falcon
and STEEM too. While "3o CANDLES" still was something for the eyes, this screen
now is a lot more technical and looks even less spectacular for demo hungry
people. It shows a simple picture in 16 greyscales that starts to swing up and
down on the screen and gets 12 bit RGB splitted later on that makes it quite
colourfull and changes the colours by overlaying. Nothing more to add...
So what? Surely a good effect, showing a lot of colours, but in the end nothing
else supports it, as it was with the first intro, means no extended gfx
or effects or musix at all. So it stays on the screen and swings... for
technical interested people surely more exciting...
