Just thought I would pass along some information on the game
Cinematronics game "Outpost." Well, I was looking through The Giant List
of Classic Game Programmers, and noticed that Scott Boden wrote an
unreleased game called "Outpost." Since Tim Skelly worked with Scott at
Cinematronics, I asked Tim what he knew about the game, and here is his
response.
----------
As for unreleased Cinematronics games, I am sorry to say that there are
none. (If there were, it would have been 'Barrier') And as unhappy as
Scott
would be, I must inform you that 'Outpost' became 'Boxing Bugs' under
the
very misguided idea that a vector game could be cute. I don't have the
whole
story since most of it happened after I left, but I was there when Scott
came up with the game play for Outpost. It might have been pretty good.
