Two unreleased demos by IRS

August 26, 2004 by Brume

News illustration image Two music demos by IRS has been spread recently by Asylum. We were waiting for a patched version of the first demo before posting this message, but it seems the patch won't be so easy to apply. So while waiting, here are both demos. They feature a bunch of chiptunes by Mad Max, Big Alec, Tao, and many other composers. The second demo offers more than 18 hours of music!

The first Beat Box requires TOS 1.0 to run. So it's not STE compatible. The second one seems to work fine with TOS 1.0 and 1.62.

Random review

The release of Titus the Fox is also a bit of a confusing one. I remember my friend, who had a 386 PC back in the day, coming up to me during lunchbreak at school, telling me about this new cool platformer he acquired called Moktar. I never heard of it, but decided that, after schoolbell rings, I would go check it out at his home. When I saw the game, I couldn't believe my eyes. This was exactly like the screenshots of Titus the Fox I saw in my magazine. Even the title screen was completely the same apart from the depiction of the main character. And it was kinda fun to play as well...even on a PC ... without soundblaster ... and with keyboard (for crying out loud).

The Atari symbol is known as the "Fuji" because of its resemblance to Mt. Fuji.
