Cancellation and Availability
The game was actually finished, even receiving reviews in some magazines at the time.[3] Ultimately, the game was never released. According to a user on the English Amiga Board, who claims to be one of the developers of the game, the game was cancelled due to the release of new systems.[4]
They claim to have possession of the original source code, however, missing the hardware to retrieve the source and assemble it to create a disk image. They have shown interest in releasing the full game, however, they have yet to do so.
