The archive is still a complete mess though. Has anybody ever tried to assemble this, cleaned up the directory structure, identified the superflous bits or stuff that doesn't belong to Alien Bash II?

Fascinating!

I want to thank the dedicated community and developer for archiving source code!

Some links which might be helpful:
the internet archive tries to preserve now also game code, so here is a place for sending source code for long-time preservation
https://archive.org/details/gamesourcecode (contact email address under "about")

additionally, the library of congress archives physical and digital parts of games, also the source code.

finally, there is this wikipedia page which tries to track available source code of video games:

Digging this thread up... Someone has found the original dev A1200 for Myles Jeffrey with the original source and artwork and the beginnings of Alien Bash 3 on it. They posted about it here.

Reading through this thread for the first time, did anyone ever have a copy of or any pictures or video of this Squiz demo? From the description it sounded like it would be good, would love to see it.
