 Notes:                                     :

 After over 20 years of C64 code-absence    |

 We welcome you to our small contribution   |

 for the Nordlicht 2013 demoparty.          |

 It has been a great and fun experience to  |

 learn about C64 coding (again) and create  |

 something in the learning process, too.    |

 Yes, we basically had to start learning    |

 about Assembler and C64 registers from     |

 scratch for the second time.               |

                                            |

 Lets share some information about this for |

 those who are interested.                  |

                                            |

 The starting Logo was originally done by   |

 KF in Photoshop, converted to Multicolor   |

 and retouched by CONS to make it look ok.  |

 The Border in the cubes part is MC charset.|

 The cubes themselves consists of over 40   |

 unique animations, pixelled by hand in     |

 good old spritepad. You probably recognize |

 them from CONS website where they were     |

 available already. The portrait in the end |

 originally is a mc picture pixelled in     |

 Timanthes and then converted into one      |

 charset with CSAM V3.                      |

 During the making, we had some ideas for   |

 effects that actually weren't compatible   |

 with our coding skills at that time. And   |

 due to the lack of ram (yes, the code is   |

 far from being optimized) one or two of    |

 the effects that already exist, didn't make|

 it into this production.                   |

                                            |

 Nevertheless, we hope you enjoyed our      |

 little something.                          |
