It must have been towards the end of 1989 when Mike (co-founder of
Spreadpoint) came up with an idea for a new intro. At some point in 1990,
a preview version with the following information and the name Splash
(sometimes also called Splitsh) was passed around within Spreadpoint.
This is a PRE-Version !!!!!
Do not copy, do not use, do not spread !!!!
Enjoy it and wait for the final Version.
The final Version will be a real time zooming !!
Unfortunately, Splash was never completed and released. The preview
version remained, which was now found on a disk from Tilt (Spreadpoint)
after more than 30 years. And this was only thanks to the tireless efforts
of Curt Cool (Depth^Nah-Kolor), who dumped disks from Tilt at Revision
2024. Thank you very much Curt Cool!
We are now happy to share this discovery exclusively with you at
NORDLICHT 2024.
The historians at Spreadpoint can still remember: Splash was a humorous
dig at the effusion drop.
The intro is a bit bitchy at times. Please move the mouse pointer over
the whole screen if it doesn't start.
