This is the first public release from the demo group 'DFI'. A rather limited fish tank simulator. No music I'm afraid as we wanted to keep it as short as
possible. Tap space to disturb the shoal.
*** Why?
**
*
Demos are a way of showing off. Quite clearly we're all show offs. Anyway,
not enough people respect the Acorn so we're here to make them.
*** How?
**
*
All written in assembler, as demos should be, using that wonderful
combination, !Edit and BASIC V. No extras needed here - that's the beauty of
the Acorn. The fish was created using !Draw.
Full source code is available for exchange - contact us if you can offer
something interesting.

The 'WhiteRoom' mega demo is still under construction. Expected time of
arrival: 10/96. Here's part of the spec:
- SF3000 style city runs (the 3DO version that is ;)
- Much warping of graphics.
- Lots of 3D, shading, lighting and mapping.
- Some music.
- A story.
- And of course lots of great real time graphics.
*** Don't I know you?

Probably not. Expect to hear a lot more from us in the near/distant future. In the mean time, we're always happy/desperate for new contacts so please
