Event id #2655 : 8K Intro Competition 2017

Inspired in part by Didi's past intro creation competitions (many thankings for those!),
have a four week lightning competition to help you survive the holiday season

- single file one part intro (fade in/out acceptable)
- has a logo+changing text+music
- file size of at most 8192 bytes, including load address (so, 8190 bytes of data).
- no more than 5 seconds decrunch/precalculation time.
- once page is running, exits within 5 seconds of pressing space (should be obviously fading out)
- don't trash any RAM from $2800 to $cfff inclusive (unless you restore it on exit).

- entries uploaded to csdb as runnable .prg, optionally embedded in .d64,
- max three per participant, withdrawals allowed, older entries will be displaced if you've too many.
- competition start: 8th December
- entry deadline: 5th of January, 14:00 (2pm) UTC
- voting deadline: 12th of January, 14:00 (2pm) UTC
- entries will be ranked by CSDb rating, including private votes.
- entries with the same weighted average will be ranked by their percentages of 10s, 9s, etc.

No prizes, just fame :)


Thankings to Jeanette, Krill, Groepaz, and various ICC2016 commenters for helping me to crystallise plans.
Any errors in judgement all my own - I've ignored a lot of good advice :D

Fast work yes, but the time is short. So don't expect 50 entries this time.

Write in English, please. If your English is bad, learn English. I will censor your German.

There was a question in German, and I responded in a mishmash of duolingo learnings and google translate. Then the cops arrived :D

Anyway, to answer the question, if space is pressed, exit (perhaps reset, or silent black screen.)

Also, just pretend there is a packed game sitting at $2800-$cfff.

During testing I'll put some data there before loading, and will check it is still there after space is pressed.

I'll turn a blind eye while the intro is running.

Do what you like with $d000-$27ff.

It was not aimed at you. It was aimed at already censored discussions in German. So might look confusing now. :D
