Some comments from Stephen Goss, one of the authors...
This game was under development for Harlequin but not published due to the collapse of the company. The overland area had been partially developed but only placeholder data existed for the subterranean locations, including some very ugly color schemes... The game is without enemies in the demos we produced for our development milestones but some work was begun on a system of software sprite and player-missile enemy creatures. Only the animated "eyeballs" exist in these test sections.

Looks very promising. The very nice creepy soundtrack is a big plus. Anybody wants to finish that one ?
