I tried to find out a while ago about this company and all i found was a snippet in Your Sinclair that they had 'ceased trading' it didn't say why though, very mysterious! Perhaps all the programmers had just visited a sushi bar for lunch.......
I remember them at the PC Show back in '87 or '88. They had a tank of piranhas on their stand. They fed them life goldfish just before the show opened.
What they hadn't banked on was the prianhas biting off the goldfishes tails and leaving them to hang around for snacking on later.
Also, some bast stole my walkman from the EMAP stand. Almost 20 years later and I still stand by my promise to flatten the bastard if I ever find them.
THe company was a label from Macmillan software. Amount others, they released that big-sprites-series of games line like Flunky and Trapdoor by the hand of Don Priestley, and dissapeared... I need an in-deep info about that company... If anybody knows any magazine scan (english or spanish) where I can refer, please answer on this thread...
You only have to listen to the first 45 seconds for your complete answer.
I had a listen to about the next 10 mins but its a glorified advertisment. Quite entertaining. I thought what a patronising bastard and then I realised what the date of the interview was (31/3/01).
