Apple IIGS Demos - Notable Apple II Demos

Notable Apple II Demos

  • Bright Software's Bright Demo, an early demo, launchable from Applesoft BASIC
  • FTA's Delta Demo, the last one they would do for the IIgs
  • Jason Harper's FillMaze, based on code by Werner Gunther. FillMaze was a rather incredible display of the IIgs "fill mode" graphics capability
  • Revenge of the Bob's Demo Ninjaforce's first demo from 1992.
  • MegaDemo from Ninjaforce, the first two-disk demo for the IIgs, also one of the first boot-disk demos to be patched to run from a hard drive. Interestingly, the MegaDemo was not compatible with the ROM 3 version of the IIgs and required an additional patch to be run on that model.
  • FTA's Modulae
  • FTA's Nucleus, which was used by Apple itself to demonstrate the IIgs at trade shows
  • OverCycle, by Marco Busse of Jupiter Systems, which placed graphics in the normally-blank screen border
  • Bullwinkle's Summer 1990 Demo
  • The multi-group collaboration X-Mas Demo (famous for its rather obscene Easter egg)
  • The Captain's (aka TC Wilson) X-Mas Demo (the MACOS/METAL author's final work)

Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or apple:

    Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it’s more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    A man may build a complicated piece of mechanism, or pilot a steamboat, but not more than five out of ten know how the apple got into the dumpling.
    Edward A. Boyden, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. The Woman’s Magazine, pp. 423-5 (April 1888)
