Got a specific source so that it can be traced in case someone asks about it?

If you have other things of interest, please mention them so that I can see if they are fit for the notes or not.

Here is my new suggestion:
Quote:
If you have played Graftgold's games, QUAZATRON (for ZX Spectrum) and MAGNETRON (for ZX Spectrum and Commodore 64), you may notice that the protagonist of VIROCOP bears a striking resemblance to the character KLP-2, found in QUAZATRON and MAGNETRON.
Steve Turner, who developed QUAZATRON and MAGNETRON, is one of the three coders of VIROCOP, which explains the similar design of both protagonists.
QUAZATRON was originally developed as a port of PARADROID (for the Commodore 64 and which would later remade on the Amiga as PARADROID 90), although it later included some differences such as the use of an isometric view.

Might be a bit long, but better have all the info. now before deciding or not to make a cut-down version.
