GAME HISTORY ============ Development of this project began in Late March 1995. We were so impressed by CD rom as a mutlimedia tool that we began developing for this exciting medium. We traveled to the spring E.C.T.S to find that most Major Developers & Publishers were deserting the Amiga & CD32 formats & were developing for other formats. As we already had code & design nearly finished, we carried on developing in the hope of a satisfactory end to the long running Commodore saga. With most major publishers not willing to support CD Rom Amiga development we release this playable demo to test the Amiga Market. To see if it is worth continuing with the Amiga Version of this game....
