+# List of candidates for self-running 'captive' demos
+#
+# Not all games are good candidates. Some have no demo mode at all.
+# Others technically have one but it's visually uninteresting or too short.
+# Others are ruled out by technical constraints. Due to the architecture of
+# the launcher, all captive demos must run entirely in main memory (48K).
+# NO languard card, NO auxmem!
+#
+# We have enough disk space that we don't worry too much about it. (Wow.)
+# Generally we start with an uncompressed ProDOS port of the entire game
+# and whittle it down to just the files it needs for its demo mode, then
+# apply patches so that it
+#
+# - returns control after the natural end of the demo cycle
+# - returns control on any keypress
+# - returns control on any button press (note: some games don't support
+#   joystick buttons at all, and we don't add button support, but if you
+#   can start the game by pressing a button, we need to ensure that that
+#   returns control instead)
+# - disables all sound output
+#
+# 'Returning control' involves activating RAM bank 1 read access and
+# jumping to $D000 (labeled as |Reenter| in the source code). The launcher
+# puts this code at $0100 before executing a captive demo, so generally
+# you can just put 'JMP $0100' anywhere. If a particular game overwrites
+# this area of the stack page, you will need to find 6 bytes for the
+# 'LDA $C088 / JMP $D000' instructions yourself.
+#
+# Notes on completed and in-progress captive demos are in res/notes/
+#
