Handy 0.95 for Amiga 68K is available, get it from http://members.optusnet.com.au/jrjacobs76/
I did tell the admins about this a while ago but they haven't updated the relevant page for whatever reason.

I didn't see the message--it's possible it got flagged as spam. Spammers send an inordinate amount of garbage through the news submission form, unfortunately.

OK then, thanks for the explanation.

Handy 0.95 has been ported to Amiga.

I did send a news submission to this site, I didn't even receive the courtesy of a reply. Very unprofessional.

I think that's why they changed the name. The game wasn't really much like Impossible Mission, so they decided to split it off from that series.
Yes, but I wonder why they didn't just do a literal port of Impossible Mission instead or as well as doing Electrocop...it would have been a killer app.

Well why the hell did they do that!!!!?
It's not like they would have been infringing their own licence!
Yet they changed the "Treasure Chests" game to "Gauntlet: The 3rd Encounter", even though it is a disgrace to the Gauntlet name and really not much like proper Gauntlet at all.
Bizarre.
Anyway I downloaded it and had a look, and it's NOTHING AT ALL like ANY of the Impossible Mission series. Seems like Epyx/Atari were lying through their teeth.

Anyone know why this was not released?
It was mentioned as one of the launch titles in the Lynx preview in ACE magazine, a screenshot was also shown.
This would have been a killer app for the Lynx, I wonder why Epyx canned it...? Is there a prototype version available?

Yes, that's me actually :-)
If you need any help with the merging feel free to ask.
