This section will serve two purposes. First, Ambrosia would like to thank all the publications, reviewers and writers who have mentioned us these past two months. All of this free press helps us bring our “commercial quality & service with shareware philosophy” message to users far and wide. For this we are truly grateful.
Secondly, Ambrosia would like to draw attention to these articles as third party, objective opinions. Let’s face it. The Ambrosia Times is published by Ambrosia Software. We may be just a little biased towards our own products.
So here is a list of publications mentioning Ambrosia products within the last two months. If you have written anything (good or bad) about Ambrosia, please send it in. We will try to mention everyone, but for sure we have overlooked a few. If you send it, we’ll print it.
MacUser™, October ‘94, Page 136
This is a short blurb about Chiral‚Ñ¢ winning the ZiffNet/MacUser shareware of the year award. We had some tough competition, but we won for the second year in a row.
Computer Player™, August ‘94, Page 63
Maelstrom‚Ñ¢ received a ten out of ten, and was given the Computer Player recommendation stamp. This made Maelstrom the top rated game in four pages of capsule reviews. Thanks guys.
Computer Player™, August ‘94, Page 63
Chiral was given an eight out of ten, putting it on the same score level as SimCity Enhanced CD-ROM‚Ñ¢. Wow, must be that dollar value factor working.
MacHome Journal™, August ‘94, Page 74
Chiral has been given a three and a half apple rating. Here Chiral shares the same review space with Return to Zork‚Ñ¢. We were impressed to be keeping such dignified company.
ZiffNet/Mac Threads‚Ñ¢, July 1994, Page 2
An interview with Andrew Welch. Here he talks about Ambrosia in general and spills the beans about Apeiron‚Ñ¢ in particular.
BMUG Newsletter‚Ñ¢, Fall 1994, Page 378
From the outside this is certainly one of the most impressive user group newsletters that I have come across. It is actually a bound book with a color graphic cover. I was disappointed in the quality of the content though. Maelstrom’s review, although positive, was riddled with errors. Most importantly were an incorrect email address and the statement “it’s not available in color, unfortunately”. Maelstrom is, and has always been, available only in 256 color. A quick addition of BMUG to our press release mailing list should fix this in the future.
