Games That Weren't 64

Stuart Fotheringham talks about the prospect of WTSS on the C64...

"Wouldn’t have been by us, at Denton Designs we tended to create original version of game and then Ocean had third party conversions done.

I can’t remember seeing anything about WTSS on Commodore 64, it was a 128K Spectrum game as so would only have been possible on Commodore 128 and multi-load was out the question.

Ocean were resistant to “variations” like 128K versions, but John Heap really sold them WTSS (I drew the loading screen on the Speccy version); but I think it unlikely C128 would have flown.

I also remember some original game concepts we tried to sell them for C128 and they were turned down flat, also at the time they didn’t think there was any point in Atari and Amiga product either, “not enough sales”."
