- Mr. L + Dr. Bakterius
The third intro from the partnership of Mr. L (CSDb scener ID 11614) and Dr. Bakterius (ID 11615), a two-person cracking team active from 1984 through the mid-1990s. Both sceners are documented on CSDb as coders and crackers who collaborated on numerous game cracks and intro productions. Their earlier intros are dated June 1985 and 28 September 1985 on CSDb, suggesting this third entry follows from that period. Mr. L's solo output includes tools like "Kernal Loader" and "Turbocopy," while Dr. Bakterius cracked titles including Elite and Mercenary. The partnership also involved collaborations with Commo Bam, Pegasus, and China-Soft. No country of origin is recorded on CSDb for either scener, and the group lacks a formal CSDb group page — typical of informal two-person partnerships that predated the structured group hierarchies of the later 1980s. Their combined output spans over 90 releases across the C64 platform.
