it looks like an instant classic indeed, is it possible to contact the cracker group? in a quick google search there are a couple of interviews to the musician maf^silicon unrelated to the game and a couple of music mods from the game (check Exotica site)

original french email: ******************* Sent: Saturday, April 02, 2005 5:22 PM Subject: Re: Basket Island & Super Pumpkin Bros ???? Merci pour l'intérêt que vous portez à ces 2 jeux qui n'ont malheureusement jamais vu le jour sur Amiga. Je suis impressionné par vos connaissances. Concernant Basket Island, un contrat a été signé à l'époque mais le programmeur du groupe Syndrome n'avait pas confiance en l'éditeur, alors disons que le projet n'a pas évolué dans le bon sens... Aux dernières nouvelles, ce programmeur travaille avec Pierre Adane (chez PAM). Concernant Super Pumpkin Bros, j'ai eu des déboires pour trouver un programmeur à l'époque. Actuellement, je m'occupe seul du développement, sur PC (une version GBA était prévue, mais le programmeur n'a pas assez d'expérience). http://www.pumpkinbros.com (...) J'ai visité votre site et la seule "bonne nouvelle" que je peux vous donner, c'est que je connais personnellement le concepteur d'un des jeux mentionnés sur la liste ("Fantasy Flyer"). C'est un ami qui vit en Belgique. Je possède une version du jeu ( en 4 disquettes ). Il a développé ce jeu tout seul. Par ailleurs, je suis en possession d'un autre jeu que nous avions fait ensemble et que Titus aurait dû éditer. C'est un shoot'em up en 2 disquettes ("Rage"). Par contre, je ne sais pas comment vous envoyer ces fichiers... Peut-être faut-il formater sur Amiga des disquettes au format PC ??!!?? ... ca fait des années que je n'ai plus utilisé d'Amiga ! Quoi qu'il en soit, SI C'EST POSSIBLE et que j'obtiens l'autorisation de mon ami, je vous enverrai tout ça. Sur ce, Bon week-end ! Ralph Le GALL ************************** I will try ti translate it: ********************** Sent: Saturday, April 02 2005 5:22 PM Subject: Re: Basket Island & Super Pumpkin Bros???? Thank you for the interest which you carry to these 2 games which unfortunately never were releaed on Amiga. I am impressed by your knowledge. Concerning Basket Island, a contract was signed at the time but the programmer of the Syndrome group did not rely on the editor, then say that the project did not move in the good direction... With the last news, this programmer works with Pierre Adane (for PAM development) Concerning Super Pumpkin Bros, I had some difficulty to find a coder at the time. Currently, I only occupy myself of the development, on PC (a version GBA was envisaged, but the programmer does not have enough experiment). "http://www.pumpkinbros.com" (...) I visited your site (www.whdload.de) and the only "good news" that I can give you, it is that I personally know the creator of one of the plays mentioned on the list ("Fantasy Flyer"). It is a friend who lives in Belgium. I have a version of the play (in 4 diskettes). It developed this all alone play. In addition, I am in possession of another game which we had made together and which Titus should have published. It is a shoot' EM up in 2 diskettes ("Rage"). On the other hand, I do not know how you to send these files... Perhaps is necessary it to format on Amiga of the diskettes to format PC??!!?? there are several yea6rs that I did not use any more of Amiga! At all events, IF It IS POSSIBLE and that I obtain the authorization of my friend, I send all that to you. On this, Good weekend! Ralph Le GALL I will respond to him and informe you |

UHB 64 colors i am just receiving another mail of Ralph Le Gall original is here: ************************************* Ok, j'ai bien pris notes de vos informations. Je contacterai mon ami pour "Fantasy Flyer". D'ici qu'il me réponde, je rechercherai dans mes disquettes Amiga. A propos d'Amiga, j'ai un A500 et un A1200. Voilà. A bientôt !... Ralph Le GALL p.s.: Pierre est quelqu'un de très sympathique. ... un ancien collègue à Pierre et moi qui s'appelle Didier Malenfant a développé un jeu pour Amiga, i8l y a plusieurs années. Je ne sais2 pas si ce jeu a été édité, mais le magazine "Tilt" en avait parlé: un jeu de plates-formes qui s'appelait Tumble Romp (je ne sais pas si c'est l'orthographe exacte). Aux dernières nouvelles, Didier travaille chez Naughty dog, en Californie.Vous pouvez le contacter via xxxx.com , ou xxxx.com Sinon, je connais indirectement Fernando Velez et Guillau2me Dubail qui ont réalisé Jim Power. Indirectement, je connais aussi Thomas Djafari qui travaille à Hawai, pour Konami (pro evolution soccer). Etant donné qu'il ne travaille qu'en assembleur et qu'il a commencé sur Atari et Amiga, je suppose qu'il a réalisé des jeux pour Amiga ... je peux éventuellement me renseigner. ************************ here english version: ************************ Ok, I note well your informations. I will contact my friend for "Fantasy Flyer". Waiting he answers me, I will seek in my Amiga diskettes. About my configuration, I have A500 and A1200. With soon!... Ralph Le GALL P.S.: Pierre Adane is somebody of very sympathetic. ... a former colleague with Pierre and me who is called Didier Malenfant developed a game for Amiga, several years ago. I do not know if this game were published, but the magazine "Tilt" had spoken about it: a arcade game which was called Tumble Romp (I do not know if it is the exact orthography).

Indirectly, I know also Thomas Djafari who works in Hawaii, for Konami (pro evolution soccer) Being given that it works only out of assembler and that it started on Atari and Amiga, I suppose that he coded some games for Amiga... I can possibly me inform ... |
