According to Zzap!'s review of the C64 version, an Amiga conversion was also due. As such, it's fair to imagine that an ST release was also planned. Does anybody know why this didn't happen - whether anything was started, who was working on it, why it was cancelled, and whether anything was kept?

A surprising amount of work is being done these days by retro enthusiasts getting to the bottom of unreleased ports and advertised-but-never-released titles... http://gtwportal.retro-net.de/ seems to be a hub of sorts, though it doesn't yet cover the ST.

Funny you should say that, I've contributed a fair bit to the C64 branch of Games That Weren't (and mined it for a few trivia entries on here....)
