Additional Comments

This was to be the final game entry from Wizard Video Games, but was never released. Based on the 1974 soft-porn movie of the same name, Flesh Gordon was long thought to have never been even started, until the programmer of the game kindly set the record straight: 'Flesh Gordon was finished. It sucked, sometimes literally if you know what I mean. It was a horrible game with a lot of sex and the payoff was the ability to hump using the joystick. There was nothing cool or interesting but then wizard video wanted what they wanted. There came a time when they stole a copy of the final or near final version which was sent for their approval. They refused to pay and they went to publish the game using the rom we sent them to approve. It was just about finished but it needed some finishing touches. We never did them. They never officially released it as I understand and that was no loss.'
What happened to the prototype that was sent to Wizard Video Games is unknown. Rumors over the years have surfaced that some collectors have access to the rom, but this has never been verified and is highly suspect.
