Our History
1994, Ambriel and Tryoon founded Exadus. (Don't ask where
the name comes from...haha...) They were trying to make a game. A clone of nibbles, but in
graphicmode. They were at Ambriel's house, and he had just got his first PC. Anyhow, the
game was finished and they gave it the name "Realworm". You can download it,
check out our games section
Later that year Mr.W, Joe, Henk and Bozoman joined. We were
all friends and had done computer related things together before Exadus was founded. At
this point Ambriel named the group/team Exadus...Ask him where he got "Exadus"
from :)
1995, our first demo was released. It ended up second at
Hackerence fall demoparty in Härnösand. Coded in Pascal, just like Realworm.
Just after we released our first demo Dione joined us. He's
known as Cyngus now.
1996, our second demo was released. It also ended up second
at Hackerence spring demoparty in Härnösand. But later that year at Hackerence fall
demoparty we released our third demo. And we won this time. Our first victory ever. Dave
won the graphic competition with his picture "Junkie". Bozoman competed in the
music competition.
1997, Henk won his first music competition, at Hackerence
16, with his odd song "Mr. Ego and The Fruit". We placed second in the demo
competition. Tryoon made a 2k Intro and competed in the 64k Intro competition.
Later that year, at Strange demoparty in Söråker, after a
summer with lots of coding did we release our best demo so far. "The Letdown
Project". We won the demo competition.
By the way, Strange is the best demoparty we ever been to...
1998, at Midwinter, Sollefteå. We won the demo
competition. Henk won the music competition. Dave and Tryoon placed second in the Graphic
competition.
Henk won the two common Hackerence music competitions that
year. That means that he has won three competitions after eachother. He's the only one so
far. Tryoon placed second at Hackerence 18 graphic competition.
