Bryan, the reason BSC couldn't complete Castle Quest was totally out of
their control. They had contracted independantly with a third-party
developer to design the game. The developer later said he couldn't
complete the project, and BSC had no one else to design the game. Worse
the original developer had the rights to the source code to Castle
Quest, and was unwilling to turn control of the source code over to
Justin. IN the end Justin had a game with no developer and no source
code. To create the game he litterally had to start from scratch which
was more trouble than it was worth. Anyway, being upset with justin or
BSC is really unfair. I know if Justin had a way to complete the game he
would have.

Draconis at least now seems willing to consider the idea. So while folks
at BSC have told me they are going to release more titles I'm not
holding my breath. And anyway I've been upset with them since they
canned Castle Quest almost four years ago.
