United Minds

This document is about the coding group called "United Minds". They are based in Scotland, and are indeed one of only two Scottish demo groups I have heard of (the other is Technium 220). Also run a demo library, MDL (Minds Demo Library - obvious) which contains most of what Alchemist PD had in the way of A/V programs (demos).

  4. Devious D (new member) No details yet.
  5. Datasoft (new member) (email: jmg7@ukc.ac.uk) Only decided a while ago that I'd finally join, though the offer was made ages ago.

Quite a few programs, they definitely (they even admit it) work on quantity, not quality (they've been called crap by so many people) but the demos are mostly there for the scroller texts in which all the team members (well nearly all usually) end up slagging each other off as much as possible for a laugh....

  1. Speedy Tomatoes on Acid - they all have weird names...
  2. Acid Andy
  3. Cerebral - quite a bit of BASIC (ugh) and a large number of parts
  4. Nonsense - it is!
  5. Legion
  6. Target: Earth
  7. Small One
  8. PixLogo / PixLogo 2 - a utility
  9. Sam Coupe - A Total Piss-Take, done with Extacy-3 after a SAM dominated Gloucester Format "SAM and Spectrum honest there will be Speccy stuff" show.
  10. Chocolate
  11. Sucker
  12. Nitelife
  13. Strawberry Fields
  14. Hex-Files - not quite finished, it's where me, LA (of E-3), Danny Beach went up to Scotland over the Easter weekend and started a demo.
  15. Beyond Help (soon to be released, with a part by Datasoft(me), E-3, others). They have actually been working on this for ages. (try since late 1993)

The quantity has been great recently - they are still working on "Beyond Help" which loads of people seem to have contributed a part to (including me - enough of a plug?, Extacy-3, loads of others).
