Whodunit: A Wave
Post Posted: Sun Jan 22, 2023 3:16 am
The ROM for the US/European version of Slider for Game Gear contains the following message:

----------------ATTENTION:      THIS PROGRAM MADE BY YASUSHI MITAMURA 05/20/1991.WOW !! 05/20 IS BIRTHDAY !! CONGURATURATIONS !! PLEASE GOOD JOB.( MAKING CHARACTER / PROGRAMING / PRANNING / OTHERS )CALL ME. 03-3413-6861(JAPAN)----------------


It turns out that phone number is actually the company A Wave's (see here). There is no other evidence of A Wave's involvement, but they did other games for Victor. Some of the high score initials in Slider may match up with A Wave staff.

Was Mini Putt originally an Accolade game? I think it was a port of a PC game, originally published by Accolade.

Yes, it was a computer game originally published by Accolade and developed by Artech.
