A great little game which never really seemed to fit into the category it was placed under. The game strangely was situated within Binary Zone PD on one of their PD games disks. A game of commercial quality and addictive platform playability was being given away for free?
A mistake surely, but sadly not. This hard work was the creation of both Kevin Murphy and Damian Steele whom created the game with the hope of finding a publisher. Along with other titles that Kevin had written, the Flubble and Squij was shown around to publishers such as Codemasters and Mastertronic, but sadly without too positive a response.
Commercially, the C64 was dying and it was down to the new breed of post bast C64 companies to save the day. Kevin, after publishing hell for this and his other titles, gave up on the C64 and moved on. Pretty peeved over the way his quality work never made it in the shops.
