DEM1 (Demo disc 1)
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128. Plus compatibility not guaranteed.
---------+----------------------------------------------------------------------
50001-7 | A simple demo with a "circular" scroll from Germany
`68000KIL` | An excellent demo (no music) by France's Naminu (of Malibu Crackers)
BDR2 | A good overscan demo from France with a set of rasters
BIGSCROL | A large text scroller by John Girvin of Ireland
COLOURRU | Simple "colour bar" demo (Denmark)
HUNTER1 | Exclusive! The first Bitmasters' demo, from France (no music).
`LOGON1` | Very good one-screen demo by France's Logon System (music disabled).
`LOGON5` | Similar to Logon 1, but better - with an amusing digitised cartoon!
MALIBU2 | By France's famous Malibu Crackers. Not their best but still good.
MR-CRACK | Very simple Danish demo
SANTA | Two-screen demo, again from Denmark
@-@
DEM2 (Demo disc 2)
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128. Plus compatibility not guaranteed.
---------+----------------------------------------------------------------------
ASTERIX | A good Swiss demo by Warlock and brothers Asterix and TMP. Loads of
| screens. Includes some good soundtracks!
`BMCDEMO3` | Very good German demo by Black Mission. Great soundtrack by Logon.
DRAW-IT | Animated string patterns (like FX mode in Spindizzy)
IMMORTAL | "The Immortal ICO" by The Blood Brothers. Not the best...
MCPADDY | Another good demo by Warlock, Asterix and TMP. This one includes a
| great soundtrack by Weee!
`PARTY` | Excellent demo by a variety of German authors. Good Weee! soundtrack
| and a hard-to-read scrolltext!
@-@
DEM3 (Demo disc 3)
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128. Plus compatibility not guaranteed.
---------+----------------------------------------------------------------------
AIDS | Amusing German sampled speech by KKB. Very high quality reproduction.
CRTC#5 | An er... not amazing demo. Better than CRTC 1-4, though...
MALIBU4 | The first part of Malibu Crackers' fourth demo. Simple but good.
`MERLYN#3` | This is one of the best demos in the whole Robot PD range. Really
| good soundtrack by Weee!, very smooth and colourful scrolltext, and
| a great animation of the wizard Merlyn blinking. Uses the whole of
| your monitor for graphics. Excellent review in ACU.
PC1512 | A picture (with raster) by the excellent NWC of Denmark.
`REVOLUTI` | Longshot (of Logon System)'s best ever one-screen demo, with great
| ST music. Not compatible with all CPCs (Multiface owners ok).
THANKS-D | A short demo with an unreadable scroll by NWC. Generally a good demo
| but the music is, well, weird...
@-@
DEM4 (Demo disc 4)
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128. Plus compatibility not guaranteed.
---------+----------------------------------------------------------------------
ALFDEMO | Simple demo, a psychedelic scroll, and an incredibly annoying sample
| of ALF (Alien Life Form) saying "Just kidding..."
INTRO | Not many PD libraries can boast this! A demo written especially for
| Robot PD by Spy Hunter of the Bitmasters - exclusive to Robot PD.
| This includes a good sample and some excellent digitised pictures.
MA-BAKER | A sample - with re-mix - digitised by The Cracking Crew of Denmark.
| The Cracking Crew is actually an old name for NWC (New Way Cracking).
| This sample is amusing and of quite good quality.
MUSIQUE | Another sample - this time a pop song, with a screen loaded as well.
PREVIEW | Another Robot PD exclusive - a preview of the Bitmasters' second demo
| with such great routines as a 364-colour display (no joke!) and other
| good effects. Compiled especially for Robot PD by the Bitmasters.
BOING! | Simple bouncing logo around the monitor.
@-@
DEM5 (`YAO Demo`)
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128. Plus compatibility not guaranteed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This disc contains the YAO demo by Fefesse and Stephane St. Martin of France,
with a guest screen for 128k owners by P007 of Malibu Crackers and Mad Murdock.
The YAO demo is one of the best demos ever with legal music in - there is some
great artwork, an excellent sample and some very good animations. This disc is,
quite simply, not to be missed! It will work on all CPCs (I don't know about the
Plus range) but 464 owners will miss out on the 128k guest screen. However, it's
still brilliant, even on a 464!
@-@
DEM6 (Demo disc 6)
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128. Plus compatibility not guaranteed.
---------+----------------------------------------------------------------------
ANIMATE | A good animation by David Carter of the word "Robot" spinning,
| produced with Discovery's "Animator". Very smooth.
COCKTAIL | An aid to alcoholics! Eight different cocktails with recipes and
| illustrations. Well presented.
IB | A simple preview of a demo by the "Iron Bidon". Some good artwork
| with a simple scroll.
MCRTC | CRTC Music Demo - two good tunes ("Platinum - Airborne" by Mike
| Oldfield and "Electro" by CRTC) computerised using EMU.
MEGA5 | The "Crash" demo (part of a much larger demo) by Weee! and Merlyn of
| Germany. This is a pretty good demo (good soundtrack and original
| animation) but on some CPCs - including Pluses - it works only
| intermittently. There doesn't seem to be much logic to it!
PENGDEMO | The Penguin Software catalogue disc intro with routines from demos
| by NWC and Weee!, and graphics by David Carter.
SPOCK | A good animation by David Saadoun of France - watch Kirk and Spock
| "talk" to each other, complete with authentic wiggly eyebrows...
@-@
DEM7/8 (`Terrific Demo`)
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128. Plus compatibility not guaranteed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These two collections contain the first part of the "Terrific Demo", a German
demo by Thriller and Weee! This demo combines good coding with fantastic music
by Weee!, undoubtedly the best CPC musician around. There is even a built-in
option to copy the demo! The demo is so large, it takes up two sides of a disc:
therefore you will need to order collections DEM7 and DEM8 together. They
do not load separately or without each other.
Note that this is only "Stage One" of the "Terrific Demo"! There will be further
stages which you can add on coming later, and Robot PD will distribute them.
The next stage will, apparently, include some games as well!
Unfortunately, the Terrific Demo is not compatible with all CPCs. It seems to
be newer ones which are affected (producing a "Shell Shock" error message) but
there is not much logic to which machines it doesn't work on. If you order this
and you find it won't work, simply return the disc and we will replace it with
another two collections of your choice (free of charge). You can't lose!

DEM9 (Demo disc 9) - Artificial Intelligence 83%
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128. Plus compatibility not guaranteed.
---------+----------------------------------------------------------------------
DEMO#01 | A good animation by David Carter, featuring the word "Robot" spinning
| around and exploding, then magically reforming. Very smooth.
DIGWOMEN | A slideshow of digitised pictures of women (cries of "sexist!").
| None of them are in any way "naughty".
`GPANOEL` | A very well-drawn Christmas picture by the French GPA group, with a
| festive tune and clever scroll (only on some CPCs)
INTRO | The introduction to the disc: a demo in itself!
LUMBER | CRTC 6.5, "The Lumberjack Demo" - features digitised Monty Python
| sound and graphics.
`VORSPANN` | A utility to create your own demos with moving streams of rasters
| (colour bars) and a smooth scroll. Quite easy to use and produces
| good results - like the intro to this disc! Very flexible and has
| been enthusiastically received by many users.
@-@
DEM10 (Demo disc 10) - a disc of British demos!
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128. Plus compatiblity not guaranteed.

DEM11 (Demo disc 11) - more British demos...
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128. Plus compatibility not guaranteed.
---------+----------------------------------------------------------------------
CRTC#7 | ChaRleyTroniC demo 7 - "The Decent Demo". A three-part machine code
| demo, written in response to a dig in a demo by Dino... not mould-
| breaking, but it IS British!
DEMO#1 | "Dizzy Robot" - the letters that make up "Robot PD" spinning around.
| An animation by David Carter - very smooth.
`FISHTANK` | A fun program by Stuart Gascoigne - pick a fish and watch it swim
| around the fishtank. Beautifully smooth and well-drawn.
REBOUND | "Rebound Demo" by Alan Scully (aka Dino). A magazine listing RSX
| for the scrolling, followed by a massive plug for a non-PD game by
| him. Er, not exactly brilliant...
WAVES | Short graphics demo by Clive Jackson.
@-@
DEM12 (Demo disc 12) - more British demos!
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128, 464/6128 Plus
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This disc contains the 10th demo by the Legendary Demon Cracker. It is called
the "Grafix Demo", and is a collection of static screens and short animations.
There are a great number of parts - some taken from other PD programs. The
demo takes up the whole disc.
DEM13 (Demo disc 13)
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128, 464/6128 Plus
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This disc contains:
RIP-OFF: a British demo (3 parts) by Rudolph
`GRAFIKDEMO`: a superb German animation, really smooth
HACKER 2: not for the 464, simple graphics and a tune
DOG FOOTY: a picture of a dog playing football, with the "Match of the Day" tune
WORM ANIMATION: a worm and a 16-ton weight!
`GPA INTRO`: an excellent intro by the French group GPA
@-@
DEM14 (Demo disc 14)
AMSDOS, 128k CPC and Plus range (sprite animation - also 64k)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This collection contains three animations produced using Discovery's Animator
(NOT needed to run the animations!) by David Carter, of Penguin Software. They
are:
`Peggy` - a penguin in peril!
Geo - clever shape transformations.
`Bubbles` - a very impressive 3D animation, 3D not being an official
feature of the Animator!
There is also a small sprite animation by David (which works on all CPCs).
@-@
DEM15 (Demo disc 15)
AMSDOS, 128k CPC and Plus range (Amiga animation - also 64k)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Two more 128k animations by David Carter. They are:
SCull PD 120 Frame Promo - yes, that's quite enough of that, thank you.
6128 DPD - the letters DPD (the old name for Penguin Software) whizzing
about the screen.
There's also another animation, from Germany, which runs on all CPCs. It's
called the `Amiga` animation, and it simulates the "Boing!" animation on the
Amiga. It's in MODE 1 and does NOT palette-switch or use the CRTC to move the
ball - and the result is incredible!
@-@
DEM16 (`Rock Stars demo`)
AMSDOS, CPC464/664/6128. Plus compatibility not guaranteed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This demo, by Nullos Cracker, is a purely graphical demo. It contains twenty
superb digitised pictures of pop and rock stars (e.g. Madonna, Michael Jackson,
David Lee Roth, Eric Clapton) which appear on the screen in a variety of
different ways. The quality of the digitisation (MODE 2 black and white) is
very impressive.
@-@
DEM17/18 (`The Demo` v4) - Artificial Intelligence 82% The best demo ever!
AMSDOS, all 128k CPCs and Pluses. Only from Robot PD!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's Logon System's latest creation. It was sent to Robot PD by Logon System,
and you can't get it from any other library in the UK. It's quite simply the
best demo EVER on the Amstrad, and a lot better than your average ST demo -
and just as good as most Amiga demos. It's "The Demo", the superb new
128k-only demo by the best CPC demogroup...
There are seven parts in "The Demo", plus the selection screen (a demo in
itself), the decruncher (an animation), the loading picture (incredible!),
and the "Change Side" demos - with a great animation. There's a 3D scroll,
an incredible pitch-related graphic equaliser, tons of animations and smooth
scrolling messages, fantastic ST-ported music, and superbly drawn graphics.
All the parts are in overscan - i.e. no border.
If you have a 128k machine, you MUST order this. It's guaranteed to amaze
you - and any straying 16-bit owners near your CPC.
@-@
DEM19 (Demo disc 19)
AMSDOS, CPC 464/664/6128. Plus compatibility not guaranteed.
---------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
CRACKERS | Crackers' Fight by NWC. Quite a good demo!
`DEMOM` | The JR Demomaker. Rasters, scrolly messages, and 3-parallax
| starfields - a good utility.
DINO1 | Alan Scully's first demo. Erm, well...
`SDEMO` | A very good demo from the Dutch group DragonBreed - complete with (if
| you have a 128k machine) excellent quality samples. Smooth scrolls,
| rasters and even a few "Amiga Graphics" pictures!
SYNTAX | A short demo from the French disc fanzine Syntax Error.
TO-DELTA | By NWC, Max and OEW. Sounds promising? Think again - it was written
| in 1987...
