A sad story here.

Hotblack, the coder, was a very promising and gifted coder and this was his 1st real demo ever. Unfortunately, Byterapers quitted the C-64 scene soon afterwards and it seems Hotblack never joined a new groups. Too bad. He would have been really good democoder in just a few demos later. You should really check this out!

Parts:
1. Intro
2. Big scroller with a starfield
3. Two colourthings in lower screen, a logo up and scroller in between
4. Big (B) logo with a scroller going around it 5. Big big big logos up'n'down, colours, scroller and credits.

Follow the Sign II
 Follow The Sign II

Released: 10051989
Length: multipart, 138 blk + 121 blk
Code: JTP
Music: ?, Matt Grey,
Scrolls: JTP, Grendel

This demo was the follow-up to the very stylish demo Follow The Sign. It was created some time after Grendel & Rockstar came back from a party in Denmark, and the scrolltexts reflect the funny experiences. A good demo of its time.

Parts:
1: Intropart
2: Logo in middle with waving vertical sinusscroller
3: A waving and changing fullscreen countryside in background, with logo in upper portion and small scrolltext in middle. Note the great partytales from the Denmark party!
4: Fine looking part with 6 different musics, the first case when the famous (B) logo was used in a demo. Changing Last Ninja 2 graphics up. Simple yet nice looking.

These screenshots are taken from the 1st part of the demo.





Megademo / Still Strong
Early nonfixed partyversion:
Released: May 1989
Length: Multiloader, 1 + 1/3 disk side.

Fixed version:
1st June 1989
Length: Multiloader, 2/3 disk side.
Code: DXC, Hero, Xadrix, King Fisher, Zag, Tron, Frazze, Alfatech, Python
Music: Tron, JCH/Channel 42, Zardax/(B), Zad
Graphics: Tron, King Fisher, DPL/Shape, Zag, Frazze
Scrolls: various ?

The biggest (B) demo done in 1989. Megademo. Depending on version, 1 disk side or more of pretty good stuff, though nothing particularly flashing. This was anyway the first (B) demo reaching position on vote-based demochart.

This demo exists in two forms: One is the competition version for Horizon-party in Eskilstuna 1989, other is the final fixed release. Which is which?

There might even be a THIRD version in existence, since I remember clearly how Python complained afterwards that they didn't include his part. But the two versions I've found include it!!!

Python's part is one of the finest works he ever did btw. Other special thing that flashbacks from demo's production is how Hero afterwards complained how he never had anything but one single logo to use (he never ASKED for logos, though).

FIXED version, Parts:
1: Intro
2: 1st Intro (DMC)
3: 2nd Intro (Madric)
4: 1st part (Zag)
5: 2nd part (Tron)
6: 3rd part (Hero)
7: 4th part (Hero)
8: 5th part (Madric & Hero)
9: 6th part (King Fisher)
10: 7th part (DMC & Tron)
11: 8th part (Frazzle)
12: 9th part (Hero)
13: 10th part (Alfatech)
14: 11th part (Python)
