To read the description of the APOCALYX 3D Engine demos, click on the links below.
Remember that you must also download the latest executable of the APOCALYX runtime at the Downloads page, then unzip all the downloaded files in the same folder and run the APOCALYX.exe executable.
If you want to modify the demos, consider that the "*.dat" files are simply ZIP files the extension of which was renamed (they contain the media files needed by the demos) and the "*.lua" files are text files (they contain the code of the scripts).
