Starts out fairly standard stuff, but the rasters get much better as the intro goes on. Has everything a good intro needed (needs?), wobbly logo, knighthawks font scroller + rasters!

Finally some nice use of rasters! I think that’s the first time I’ve seen rasters used on the Amiga in such a nice, Commodore64 way. I’ve never seen this production before.
This is one of the intros that defined my entry into Amiga scene.. man I loved this one back in the day <3 Definitive Crazy Typer quality stuff – I recall this was originally the “Raster Magic” intro.
Use Master Seka http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=47998
Load the source then assemble by pressing A then Y to load in any binaries then finally J BEPO to run the thing.
You may get INVALID ADDRESSING MODE on line 220
just change
move.b (a1,d0.b),d1
to
move.b (a1,d0),d1
Megaforce England?! Don’t tell me this was made in England. Looks distinctly Austrian or German to me… Awesome coppers and that font makes a nice change 😉
It’s my mistake… I misread the scrolltext and thought it said ‘made by Megaforce England’. It actually says ‘made for’. And you’re right. English sensibilities at the time were mostly trying to figure out how to use Seka assembler.

Great old demo.
How to assemble the source ?

thank you very much…
perfectly assembled

Good intuition, dude ;). It’s german, done for MFC UK.
Crazy Typer was Austrian 😉
Oooppss. Thanks for correcting. 😉
Now I’m intrigued: it’s not part of English sensibilities to use rasters in such a way, or why did you write that?
