All 50 intros are written in ASM-One an integrated macro assembler for the Amiga computer and Motorola 680×0 processor. The source code release comes with lots of demo effects. Shaded Bobs, Glenz Vectors, Checker fields, Dragon Ball, Trace Vectors, Sine Scrollers, and much more. Smaller demos are often known as intros. They are typically limited to between 4 and 64KB in size. Intros were originally used as tags by cracking groups on computer games and other software. The purpose of the intro was to advertise cracking and distribution skill of a particular group.
