Beamrider (Activision)
I've been chatting to Julian Chappell (Software Farm) about his ZX81 and Spectrum games, and he's told me that Beamrider was written by him. (It's currently credited to Software Conversions). None of the other games credited to them were written by him though - I checked...
While I was chatting to him, I asked if he had any copies left of Potty Professor (which only sold via mail order) or even any unfinished code for the Spectrum version of Rocket Man (which was never released).
Sadly not :( but at least we know there are a few copies of Potty Professor out in the wild.

Software Conversions is still listed as well, as they are (solely) credited on the loading screen and cassette inlay...
That said, Mr Chappell (Software Farm) has not yet been contacted for a permission statement. Could you please ask him to get in touch with us?
I certainly can, but as it's an Activision title, I think we're SOL there...
