- THE DEATH OF KEFRENS! -
THIS LITTLE BUDGET PRODUCTION WAS
MADE ONLY TO ELIMINATE ALL THE SHIT
INFORMATION WHICH HAS BEEN SPREAD ABOUT
KEFRENS LATELY IN VARIOUS MAGAZINES
PLEASE SPREAD THIS INFO-THING AS
MUCH AS POSSIBLE!!
INSTRUCTIONS: LMB TO ADVANCE ONE PAGE
ESC TO QUIT
KEFRENSt WAS FOUNDED IN DENMARK 1988
BY RAZMO, MELLICA AND METALLION!
NOTHING LESS THAN 8 MEGA-DEMOS AND
SEVERAL SINGLE-PART DEMOS AND INTROS
HAVE BEEN PRODUCED UNDER THE KEFRENS
LABEL OVER THE LAST 4 FANTASTIC YEARS!
THE LAST PERSONS TO BE MEMBERS OF
KEFRENS WERE THE FOLLOWING:
DEFLEX - DETRON - GIZWIZ - ICRONITE
JAGGER - MAESTRO - METALLION - MILKSHAKE
NIGHTLIGHT - ORION - PROMAX - RVO - SEEN
SLASH - SLL - TOXIC
THE REASON FOR OUR DEATH IS TO BE
FOUND IN ONE SINGLE LITTLE WORD, NAMELY
L A Z Y N E S S !
ONCE UPON A TIME WE USED TO DO A LOT
OF DEMOS, INTROS, UTILITIES ETC. BUT
AS TIME PASSED ON WE BECAME MORE AND
MORE INACTIVE AND BECAUSE OF THIS WE
DECIDED TO STOP KEFRENSt IN THE HOPE
THAT IT WILL BE REMEMBERED AS A COOL
GROUP FOR YEARS TO COME...
A STRANGE FEELING OF EMPTYNESS HAS
STRUCK ME AND MOST OF THE OTHER X-
MEMBERS, IT'S QUITE SAD FOR US TO
SAY GOODBYE AFTER SO MANY YEARS OF
GREAT FRIENDSHIP AND FUN...
ANYWAY, YOU MIGHT WONDER WHAT ALL
THE X-KEFRENS MEMBERS ARE DOING

THE ANSWERS ON THE FOLLOWING PAGES!

INTROS FOR KEFRENS.
HE'S WORKING ON AMIGA PROGRAMMES FOR
HANDICAPPED PEOPLE NOWADAYS.

THAT'S ALL FOR THE SHORT INFORMATION
ABOUT THE EX-KEFRENS GUYS!!!
DON'T BELIEVE ALL THE SHIT TALK HAVING
BEEN PUBLISHED IN THE MAGS LATELY!
THE KEFRENS MEMBERS INVENTED A LOT OF
THE IDEAS BEING USED BY OTHER CODERS
TODAY.
HERE'S A LIST OF SOME OF THEM:
THE SPACE SCROLL:
INVENTED BY PROMAX AND USED AS A LOADER
FOR ONE OF OUR OLD MEGA-DEMOS.
B I G FILLED VECTORS:
AGAIN PROMAX WAS THE ONE TO FIGURE OUT
HOW TO MAKE 'EM REALLY NASTY.
DOT FLAGS:
INVENTED BY ICRONITE FOR HIS 'DEN GIK
SKU NED' DEMO.
KEFTALES CYCLE-FRACTALS:
INVENTED BY METALLION, A REALLY GREAT
IDEA BEING USED A LOT AT THE MOMENT.
TRANSPARENT (THROUGH-LOOKABLE) VECTORS:
ALSO INVENTED BY PROMAX IN HIS VECTOR-
TRANSFORMER DEMO.
MULTI-DIRECTIONAL SPRITE STARS:
INVENTED BY METALLION IN HIS KEFTALES
DEMO.
EVENTHOUGH WE DIDN'T ALWAYS SUCCEED
WE REALLY TRIED TO BE AS ORIGINAL
AS POSSIBLE, MANY PEOPLE OUGHT
TO TRY THAT OUT THEMSELVES!!
KEFRENSt - A REAL LEGEND, BUT AS
WE KNOW, ALL GOOD THINGS COME TO AN END!
I WOULD HEREBY LIKE TO THANK ALL THE
EX-KEFRENS MEMBERS FOR THEIR GREAT
PRODUCTIVITY WHILE IT LASTED!!
THE ANKH JUST DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH POWER
TO PROTECT US FROM THE DEATH..
