Games That Weren't 64

Martijn Althuizen speaks about work on Enemy Scout...

"There was no contact between us and Elite about Enemy Scout, so no, there were no plans on them publishing it. I just liked the Elite logo a lot and did some versions of it myself. Harold must have liked them and included them in the title screen because of that.

As far as I know, we never send anything of Enemy Scout to anybody. It wasn't really a game we were designing anyway. More of some things we wanted to do with parallax scrolling, multispeed scrolling, etc. etc.

There was no 'strategy' to it really, just a series of things we did and we just called all of them Enemy Scout!

There weren't any plans on building a 'real' game, so you can't say it was cancelled either. We just stopped doing stuff on the C64 and all this died with it... I was having high hopes for us to still finish Golden Pyramids II. I really pushed Harold to get him to finish it, but at some point in time he just lost interest... "
