The source of this next entry is interesting as it was mentioned in "Illegal" pirate fanzine as something seen at PC 1988 show (or so it seems) by SSD of Cosmos.
Quondam was an arcade shoot-em-up written by Denton Designs, and was actually released on the Spectrum
but only seemed to get published on a magazine (Crash).
Nothing was ever mentioned of a C64 version, so we are not sure how true that a C64 version was in the works. However, Jon Dunn composed a tune which is credited 1990 Ocean, and was called "Quandamnation" ... which could be a mis-spell of the game with a bit added to the end?
Doesn't seem to be much info attached to the tune at present - but are the two connected? We will be trying to contact Jon Dunn to see if he can shed any more light on this one...
In 2011, we got hold of the artist who had done the loading screen for Hard Drivin' ... they shed light on Flashpoint as they worked on the graphics (We don't have a proper name at present). Quondam was exactly the same as the Spectrum version, but with more colours splashed around.
So it is confirmation that the game did indeed exist on the C64. But who was the coder behind it??
Early days, but do you know any more about this game?....
