Aquaventure was never mentioned in any Atari press releases nor does it show up on any internal part lists. It seems to be complete, but was never released for unknown reasons. Programmer Gary Shannon said it was complete and ready to be released: 'I do remember quite clearly completing the coding and testing of the game, and moving on to a new project. The last official word was that it was going to be released. I was paid a "completion bonus" against future royalties.' Aquaventure could have been caught up in the 'game freeze' that new Atari CEO Jim Morgan imposed in september 1983. Morgan froze all game development and releases until he could review them and decide which were strong enough for release. It could be that Aquaventure didn't make the cut.
The words LOONEY and HOT can be found in the middle of the code. |
