note that the startup takes a little while, as it has to uncompress

It might be possible for calcs, if it weren't for the following requirements:
  • A 1.5GHz pentium 3 / athlon or faster.
  • 512MB of RAM.
  • a GeForce4Ti (or higher) or ATI Radeon8500 (or higher) graphics card supporting pixel shaders 1.3, preferably with 128MB or more of VRAM.
  • some kind of sound hardware.
  • DirectX 9.0b.

I was suspicious as well, but apparently people on the game trailers forum were able to get it to work,

This is old, well a few year(s). It is a great demo, and it is not a trojan (I have tested it many times)...I am just excited to what the finished product is like ;)

And if you're suspicious.. that's why we have emulators and virtual boxes, right?

Yeah, .kkrieger is kinda old, but still fun to discover. It's nice when clever math can create such great textures.

Congratulations, you found Krieger! Next watch this 64k intro called "The Product", I'm sure you will be blown away.

If someone can do all that in 96k then why can't someone make a calc game that blows every single program ever written for a calculator away in just as little as 92k?

Krieger is 96k, plus DirectX, plus a beefy processor to create assets, plus the Arial font.
