Historical Notes

We incorrectly listed the designer as Allen Edwall. Allen told us he was mainly involved with this game only because he and Tom DeFotis were trouble-shooting a "nasty bug" in one of the hardware timer chips made by Rockwell. Allen believes the designer was either Ed Krynski or John Buras. Buras told us his best recollection is that the designer was Ed Krynski. Buras adds that he (Buras) may have written the software for the prototype but is not sure who wrote the final version.
