- Crash — Germany
This intro comes from a German group called Crash — distinguished on intros.c64.org with the "(DE)" suffix to separate it from Austrian, Polish, and other groups sharing the same name. CSDb lists multiple German groups named Crash, with group 6542 being a cracking outfit based in Ibbenbueren whose members included Alf (coder/cracker) and Mic. The group released only a handful of titles, making them a minor presence in the German scene. Intros.c64.org comments clarify the provenance — one contributor explicitly notes "this is from another (German) Crash" to distinguish it from the Austrian Crash founded in 1991. A reference to Turrican II in the comments suggests the intro may date to around 1991, when that game was published. No individual credits for code or music have been identified. The name "Crash" was among the most commonly recycled group names in the C64 scene, with CSDb listing at least four separate German groups alone under that title — a naming collision that complicates historical attribution.
