Introduction

Demo published in August 1989 by the FAC team.

It's a picture demo entirely done by The Beastie Crackers with ripped SCC music. The graphic part can be viewed as a Super Art Gallery about different themes, one of these pictures was also published in MSX/MS-DOS Computer Magazine 32.

A cartridge with SCC/SCC+ soundchip or compatible is required to fully enjoy it. SCC Konami cartridges are usable but remember: Do not insert a cartridge with the MSX turned on!!!. However, safe options exist:

  • slotexpanders with switches
  • SCC cartridges modified with switch or converted to Megasram (aka ESE-RAM)
  • use an MSX emulator

A simple intro in screen 2 with an hidden option. Instead of selecting monitor or TV, enter the word "KIM". You will be deceived by the result, it looks like an amazing joke!
