I was planning on writing a long article with lots of resonses to my questionairre from lots of ex-Amiga games comnpanies, but out of the several games companies I contacted, I got absolutily no response apart from Team 17 - who said that they would get another person to answer my questions, but i got no further reply.
One of the companies I contacted was Blue Byte, the great company that brought us that classic game - The Settlers. Unfortunitly I didn`t get any response from these. A few weeks later, they decided to refuse to give the code and graphics of The Settlers 2 to a company called Titan who were porting The Settlers 2 to the Amiga. I have a feeling that these could be connected. I am NOT picking on Blue Byte as I think that they are a very good games development group with loads of great games in the past, I just think that it is a great shame that they have cancelled helping Titan port such a great game to the Amiga.
I also contected another few companies asking if they would answer my question, but as i said above, no-one answered - so this whole article has gone down the drain.
If, for some weird reason, you are in a games company that has now left the amiga and you want to have your say about why your company left the Amiga or you want to answer my questionairre then please contact me at the address below.
