Read a #gamedev horror a.k.a. an interview with Jim Sachs in #Amiga Computing 04-1994:

Q: How long did it take you to create Defender of the Crown?

A: Seven months at 20 hours a day average. There was a tremendous amount of pressure from #Cinemaware to get it done. They would call me in the middle of the night to make sure I was still working. At the end of the project I needed to go to 22 hours a day and I cracked. I had a nervous breakdown at that point.

That is one impressive collection, which I almost spelled 'compulsive' ;)

Don't forget to add the #Commodore #Amiga #CD32 to your list, if not your collection!

@jameswoodcock

The #CD32 was indeed a console, albeit made in a hurry and then lost in the downfall of #Commodore. Unfortunately, I found the controllers so uncomfortable that I really only used it for watching VCDs (had to get an extra module for that), preferring my "real" #Amiga for everything else.
