[edit:]

Hints

1)

After a google search:
- the sole graphic artist of this game was active, according to MobyGames, until 2000;
- the sole graphic artist, or somebody with the same name, has a Twitter account with six tweets between 2009 and 2021;
- that same person appears working as VP of Software Development for a enterprise in Encino, CA, in Ventura Blvd;
- the coder, or one of the coders, in case there's more than one, which I'm not saying necessarily is the case, has an active blog, and there, in his post from february 2023 he talks about AI precursors in old movies, and in particular a movie from 1957 with Katherine Hepburn.

2)

- Whdloaded between 2005 and 2010;
- reviewed for a magazine by Peter Olafson, who praised the release; his review starts with this statement: "What sets [...] ([...], $39.95) apart is its small scale.";
- the game has something in common with a blobber with horrible controls.
