Atari Jaguar Skyhammer

For many years, Skyhammer existed only in flash rom format. A review of it was printed by Next Generation. Telegames was thinking of releasing it but it's a 32MB cartridge. They said the selling price would be $100 US because of that larger cartridge size, so they didn't want to produce it. A video clip is available at Atari Gaming Headquarters.

Skyhammer was eventually released in 2000 as a regular cart, by Songbird Productions. It sold out early and it is unlikely that more carts will be made.

You probably already know about the cheat I put in Skyhammer, as it is on the Web in more than one place. (In dock type *09101993# to get 50K credits, all weapons and promotion to next city - the number is the date I got married) There is at least one other cheat, but I can't remember how to get it. Chris Fox at Rebellion put it in, and it is activated by holding down patterns of keys to make big letters. He may still be there, in which case it is possible to email him, though I don't have the address. When you see the game, you will notice my name in the credits. It's the one that changes colour.
