- 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
KEFRENS 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 ECT. BUT AS TIME PASSED ON WE BECAME MORE AND MORE INACTIVE AND BECAUSE OF THIS WE DECIDED TO STOP KEFRENS 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 NOWADAYS... AND I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU THE ANSWERS ON THE FOLLOWING PAGES!
HERE WE GO (IN A-Z ORDER): DEFLEX, ELITE MAIL TRADER: -------------------------- HE WAS THE GUY BEHIND ALL THE GREAT FLUID-PACKS, PROBABLY ONE OF THE FASTEST MAIL-TRADERS IN DENMARK.

NOT A MEMBER OF ANY GROUP.
GIZWIZ, CODER: -------------- QUITE A LAZY CODER, PROBABLY DUE TO THE FACT THAT HE WORKS ON A SUPER COOL IRIS COMPUTER, TEACHING OTHER PEOPLE ABOUT COMPUTER GENERATED GRAPHICS.

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!!
KEFRENS - 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..
