Well, this is a bit of an odd release. First off, it calls itself a "science fiction magazine" but it's not a diskmag at all. Rather it's a preview for a demo which I don't think ever got released. Then, it says "source code included" and has a .ASM file, which starts out with some code, but then turns into an info text file, where they mention "4D vektors" even though the demo is all Wolf3D-style raycasting. I guess it was supposed to be a bunch of jokes.

Of course, it's a pain to get fully running. It usually crashes at one point or another. In DOSBox-X, it works set to 386, normal core, 3200 cycles (equal to about 16 MHz). In PCem, it worked on the Acer 386-SX25. At those speeds, the raycasting is pretty fast, at least. :)

Thank you for recovering this.

I really loved (and still love) Räd-Äd's extremely weird humor from back then. He's working at CERN these days, btw.
