- Cyber_Flight is an AGA only scroller demo which shows off (to a very limited
- extent), the new AGA dual playfield modes. It also shows how to make use
- of the ILBM fill mask to load 16 color pictures into the proper playfield.
- Note that AGA dual playfield displays deeper than 6 bitplanes need to load
- the 2nd playfield color palette into offset 16 instead of 8 as was normal.
- This demo also sets up a split screen, as is typical in many arcade games.
- Scrolling is done from the vertical blank interrupt at 60 frames per second,
- which is why it is so incredibly smooth. I didn't have time to add ships,
- enemies, etc. The gfx would get awefully boring after a while as well. :)
- Grab the joystick to control flight. Either mouse button will exit.

- 8-24-94: The demo has been updated to autodetect chipset revision, and scale
- back the graphics if need be. It'll run on all machines, but it might look
- a little funny under ECS/OCS.
