Hurray!  Glad to see this game has finally been completed - I had heard of it
for some time so it will be very interesting to see what it's like.

A while back we had played and reviewed 'Silly Putty' on c.s.a; is this related
to that game in some way?

Also great to see a sudden burst of activity here, with some fellow Amigoids 
(can I call us that?) that I recognize.  (Hey guys!  Hope all is well!) Hoping this may be the start of a c.s.a revival...

I'm running Win7 64-Bit now at home and have got WinUAE working fairly well in that environment...  I still have my humble A500 and could write any 'Putty Squad' .adf files to floppy using the archaic 'transwarp' utility but it's been years since I've accomplished any floppy creations.  Hopefully I still have my notes.

Does the game's web site offer any .adf files?

p.s. Even if we aren't officially called Amigoids, it's still a cool sounding name.  Better than 'Grognard', of which I am indeed one (and wear the title with much pride).
