the case of Baggy Trousers, a talented

heard  about  the  magic  pixelers duo
called  Groo  &  Rufferto,  who in the

Chaos  Land  is the intro contribution
from  the  Finnish  heros  at  Virtual
Dreams.   As  the  name suggests, this
40K  intro is based around the idea of
chaos    generated    landscapes   and
fractals....  and what an intro it is!
Tsunami,  the  coder  of  Chaos  Land,
seems   to   have   done  nothing  but
mastering    the   theory   of   Chaos
arithmetic, since his last production!
The  intro  starts  off  with  a  nice
Virtual  Dream  logo  drawn by D-Mage,
which  is  shown  while  the 150

The second contribution comes from the
German guys in Essence.  From the very
beginning,  D immediately becomes very
reminiscent  to the now infamous Melon
productions.   Just  like  last year's
Tetris success, D starts with a bubble
hovering  and  zooming  on  an Essence
logo.   This time though, no real time
ray tracing rendering is claimed!

Next  comes  a series of light sourced
and  RGB  square  vectors...   too bad
they  are so small, but maybe this was
a  part  of  the  design,  which  al

At  only  20  votes  away  from D, the
french   dreamers   strike  back  with
another     cute    intro,    entitled
Toyzareus!   The intro starts off with
a  cute title picture of a funny bear,
which  immediately  prepares you for a
trip  into the world of cute graphics!
The text writer parts feature a little
light  sourced  vector  star,  and the
links  between  the  various parts are
accomplished   with  the  aid  of  the
infamous flying vector plane.

Dreamdealers also managed to include a
B

The Polish Investation managed to pull
themselves  up  to  the 5th place with
their  POISON  intro!   Unfortunately,
this  intro  confirms,  from  the very
beginning,  the  weakest point in most
Polish  productions;  and  that is the
graphics.   I  cannot  withhold myself
without  pointing  that  the  graphics
from  DR.   D  are  not  the best ones
you'll  ever  see.   The  intro starts
with  an  ugly  INV  logo, which looks
very  much  like the ones that used to
be featured in the demos of 1985

It's  time  for  a  new  experience...
LEGO  are  here!  Everyone is familiar
with  the  Danish toy that consists of
blocks      with     which     complex
constructions  can  be built up!  LEGO
is  a  newly formed group which wanted
to show the scene, through their first
production,  that anyone can achieve a
funny  effect  in  a production with a
touch of quality!

You   won't  find  dozens  of  complex
routines in THE REAL 40K INTRO, but to
compensate for that, the intro is full
of  jokes...
