The box cover artwork for our Venom Wing Amiga game was painted by the late, great Oliver Frey. As a youngster, I was so proud to see the ad in one of my favorite game magazines at the time: Zzap 64. 🤩

Following Venom Wing in 1990, our next major project was an Amiga platform game called Hoi. I penned down preliminary ideas and sketches in a ruled notebook.
