Vamiga: Agony hangs after intro

Agony hangs after intro and there is probably a graphic bug in the intro screen.

I was able to load it with the following compatibility settings:

It hang when Blitter accuracy was set to level 0 (fast Blitter).

The graphics bug is actually artwork 🥺:

However, I did experience the "hanging" issue today. After the intro screen (the one with the buggy artwork), it didn't continue. Maybe there is some indeterministic issue somewhere (because it worked yesterday).

My gut tells me that we should come back to this issue only after the already known disk drive issues have been ruled out.

This is probably the same flickering issue as the one in R-Type II. We need to check the Copper list when this image is displayed.

I just looked at the flickering issue. It's not a bug, it's a feature 😎.

It flickers, because the logo is drawn in interlace mode. Flicker emulation can be customised in the Video settings. You can either disable it or change it's intensity.
