That field was added only a few weeks ago after 3800+ games had already been plugged into the database, so it's not surprising that you will find that nearly all the games have no information about HD installability.
The WHDLoad/JST HD patch fields are much older, so there is far more info. for games that have been inserted with respect to WHD/JST HD installability.

HOL improvement, especially in terms of basic info (publisher, developer, artists etc.), will take much time and energy.

Whilst we don't profess to know everything about every game, you can bet that the more obvious errors or omissions that currently exist are more likely to be due to a slip of the typing finger/mouse button or purely a lack of time rather than simply not knowing or not being able to find out.

Of course, we welcome valid and reliable info. from people here (thanks Galahad & Tim!) as it can save us a great deal of time. At present, I'm having to boot up most games to find out a list of credits because 90% of game manuals simply do not include any such info. It's real time-consuming stuff and a major pain in the arse to boot!

Thanks for the info and scans, blackcornflake. I added an aka flag to the title with Dizzy (both titles exist: the one on the boxart and the one on the title screen, so both are now referenced) and added the additional info on the game. Boxart in queue...

So who else was in Dementia besides Kev Bulmer? Bill Allen? A few of us in the HOL team were trying to work this out during the week, but a few things pointed to Dementia being a one-man band in Kev Bulmer. I was gonna drag some Ami mags out this weekend in the hope of finding a WIP article for a game developed by Dementia (I was thinking Golden Axe would be my best bet!).

Bill Allen from Memory was Gremlin, he did Switchblade 2 etc. Dementia did as you say Golden Axe, Corporation, I think they also did Legends of Valour or had something to do with it.
