This is long shot, but Ill request the demo anyway.

Back in the day, about 1983, before the internet, and when snail mail swapping was the only way, on one occasion I posted about 30 disks to my contacts. There was a single file demo, containing a single part. The part displayed 7 or 8 expanded sprites. The sprites looked like balls, that looked similar to the stripe ball to feature in the satellite channel RTL. The balls dropped down the screen in away that looked like there were being affected by gravity. They then did the opposite and would fall to the top of the screen. Does anyone here have that file?

The file name might have been 'Balls'

They didn't have expanded sprites in 83, I'm sure! ;-)

I don't even think they had normal sprites back then! ;)
