:: ABOUT THE GROUP

The two members are passionate musicians and demoscene enthusiasts:

:: ABOUT THE PRODUCTION
Crystal Cowboy is a 4k intro done by xTr1m. It's the first released
production of BluFlame, and it's the first released intro by xTr1m.
It uses OpenGL, DirectMusic and no shaders (oh the filesize!).
Runs great on an Intel Centrino 1,5GHz with an ATi Mobility Radeon
9700. Uses about 14MB of RAM. Done with Visual C++ 2005 & crinckler.
:: CREDITS
Many thanks go to las. He gave me the initial help in creating the
4k codebase, and gave me enough hints to achieve a filesize under 4k
out of 4881 bytes.
Cheers to eye for telling me that there's a wonderful thing called
crinckler! I was having trouble with LoadLibrary already...
I'm using a glow effect similar to the one in tAAt's Andromedary 4k,
it was really a great inspiration for me.
Many thanks to auld for his flow2 article in in4k.net. It's a cool
insight in how to use GLSL without taking away much space. I wanted
to use shaders, but in favor of the small filesize, i sadly decided
against it.
:: GREETINGS (in alphabetical order)
