Diskmagazine created by the Sunrise team and released in February 1992. This first edition follows the last editions of the two 'merged' groups:

Tips:

  • It's the first time you can see the animated logo of Sunrise, that will start each of their productions
  • This diskmagazine has a small intro, created by Savage and Harry Dechering, including a text scroll and a musical background (only MSX-MUSIC) in the Moonblaster format
  • To skip the intro when you use later this disk, you need to change a setting in the Install Menu
  • The magazine menu has now an extended visual layout, using two dedicated screens
  • The magazine has mouse support and is enhanced by original stereo (MSX-AUDIO + MSX-MUSIC) songs in the Moonblaster format
  • Loading of texts, graphics and musics is now very fast, as all is managed in machine language and the data are stored in the sectors of the disk
