 |  Re: What classic programmers would you like to return to the scene?
Anthony J. Clarke is among us? Wow! We still need several infos about the Micro Projects team. In Petals Of Doom there's a message of "felicitations to Jason, Mark, Tony" (Jason Perkins? Mark J. Moore? Anthony J. Clarke?), and I would remind we don't know yet who's the author of Petals Of Doom, Kung-Fu Kid, Reach For The Sky, Sword Of Destiny and some of the conversion for Gremlin Graphics. Maybe, somebody would remember what's happened to announced conversions like Avenger and Thing On A Spring tho...
Just to point it out: Dork's Dilemma and Sword Of Destiny share the same characters set, and the latter shows the same option panels as in Gullwing Falcon, Kung-fu Kid (and the same graphics too!) and Reach For The Sky. I would include Petals Of Doom too: it has very similar style with the cited games and you can read "M. P. L." in the vanity board just like in Xargon Wars. They overall look like been all coded by Anthony J. Clarke. Can him confirm that?
