Bug Hunter was bundled with Moon Dash, wasn't it?

I still remember reading the review from The Micro User after it merged with Electron User and wondering what this Archimedes thing was...

You probably won't get a thousand sales these days.

You would get sales, but not much, 30 - 100.

Yes, it was released commercially as I've got it boxed in my wardrobe - I'll get a photo sorted out sometime to prove it!

Also, Ian - I remember when I ran my website I put you in touch with a guy interested in doing a Symbian version. Did anything come of that? I still think the Bug Hunter format would be ideal for mobiles.

Isn't that almost a description of Electron User before it became an insert in Micro User? I think I'd stopped buying it by then, but even in the "good old days" there was a lot of :s/BBC/Electron/g going on.

Hello Ian, I think it's time that someone (me) makes a remake of your Bug Hunter, I plan on keeping it with the same graphics but available to play on Windows, Linux, PSP, Wii etc etc. I had seen this game when I was little and forgotten the name of it until earlier tonight I discovered it after another attempt at googling after it. Anyway please contact me at nightwolf_glc@hotmail.com so I can discuss a few things with you.
