Randolph the Robot

Here comes another AGTW contender:
While scanning through my pile of magazines, I found this obscure preview in CU Amiga, November 1989. It is called Randolph the Robot and looks a bit reminiscent to Soldier of Light.

Now, this is definitely a game that needs more investigation.

The readme of Prospectors in the Mazes of Xor mentions this:

After StarRay (lots of blasting) and Prospector (pure brainwork) we will try to mix action and thinking in our next game - working title 'Randolph the Robot' - so wait for the next Hidden Treasures game coming to your software shop sooner or later.

Maybe this IS the preview title of SOL. (like Little Beau / Kid Gloves II)

It was also mentioned in the german AMIGA Magazin 1/1990.
A game with a super-smooth scrolling and technical finesse.

@Andreas,
Nah, it is not Soldier Of Light since that game was already released early '89.
