Here's an interesting coda to the story.

Adrian Cummings (guy behind Doodlebug and numerous games under the Mutation brand) reached out when he saw that I had worked on a Special Edition hack of the game. It seems he made the very first draft of the title screen, which was later reworked by other artists. It's here, notice the huge eyes.

Also - the programmer "Laura P Paul" is actually totally fictional. There was no such woman, the name was used to represent all of the various people (apparently, quite a lot) that were involved in some capacity to get the game out the door.
