Slicker Puzzle+D/TRIAD released!

taper — Tue, 08 May 2012 18:20:11 +0000

Time for yet another braintraining game, as we bring you Slicker Puzzle, (c) DK’Tronics. Cracked from tape by Archimedes with additional work by Taper! Supplied and doc’s provided by bepp!

For every level cleared you will recieve an encrypted message. You must finish level 8 to finally see it decrypted, but just in case you can’t make it, get in touch with your local TRIAD dealer and we’ll give you the secret code that entitles you to a membership in the slicker champions club…

TRIAD give you 3D SPEED DUEL

Fancy a bit of driving but want to avoid dangerous traffic, exhaust fumes and expensive petrol? Stay indoors and play 3D Speed Duel on your C64 instead! Supplied by bepp, slammed from tape and trained by Lynx!

This reminds me of those ancient electro-mechanical driving games that had found their last home at a local super market before being scrapped, and which I used to play as a kid.

TRIAD at Gubbdata

bepp — Sat, 28 Apr 2012 01:55:19 +0000

King Fisher, iopop, Taper, Itch and Bepp from TRIAD showed up at the latest edition of Gubbdata, having a good time with the rest of the south-Swedish sceners. Other groups represented here were G*P, Onslaught, Wrath Designs, FairLight and HT.

We secured the first place in the demo compo with Chicanery, our latest one-filer demo put together by our northern section: Houbba, Ruk, Tao and Twoflower, teaming up with Itch, Dalezy and Ne7.

In the music compo, Ne7 came in on third place with Kickback and Dalezy close behind on fourth place with Super short shooter.

Correction: The tune in the end part of Chicanery turned out to be by EVS and not Mitch. Sorry for mixing that up!

TRIAD northern: first gathering

bepp — Mon, 02 Apr 2012 19:24:16 +0000

This weekend our forces in the freezing north of Sweden – Houbba, Twoflower (welcome back to Sweden!) and Ruk – had a little retro evening at Houbba’s place. Despite the fact that Houbba’s equip had been stashed away since the early 90′s, it proved to be working perfectly allright when all cables were connected. Commodore – Dealer Quality Hardware!

Many hours later and a bunch of rare findings in the lost disk boxes (!), the evening came to a sudden end when a slightly over-excited Twoflower broke Houbba’s Speedking joystick while demoing Prince of Persia =)

All in all it was a very nice evening with, what may well be, the three most northern sceners in the world!!? We’re already looking forward to seeing the first release from this “power trio”!

Protest against the Data Retention Directive!

taper — Wed, 21 Mar 2012 17:42:39 +0000

During the last couple of years, the swedish parliament have approved several new laws and treaties regarding copyright issues and surveilance of the general public. On the 21:st of March, the parliament approved yet another law originating from the EU, the data retention directive. According to this law, telecommunication data from all swedish citizens will be automatically stored. Read more about the directive here.

From now on, all swedish citizens will apparently be regarded as potential criminals. Needless to say, the reaction to this law, aswell as previous laws and treaties such as FRA and ACTA, have sparked protests. Last Saturday, a small protest rally was held in Helsingborg, gathering about 40 people. TRIAD was represented by Taper, who got some help by a computer enthusiast from the younger generation to hold the classic flag.

Itch rejoining the TRIAD fleet!

After a detour of half a year, Itch is back home onboard the mummyship again, on the fourth of march. We’re delighted to have him with us again, so a very warm welcome back!
