The Shadow (SNES), it went unreleased too, didn't it?
Talking about dark crusaders with reasonably shitty SNES games.

Yeah, a small bit of info can be found on the now-gone page of Brian Flanagan, who was the head of design:

http://web.archive.org/web/*/datathief.madvision.org/
http://web.archive.org/web/20030905193926/datathief.madvision.org/pixel/shadow.htm

I'm not sure how much I agree with him on "rather playable", but whatever...

The whole of the credits, for the curious:
PROGRAMMER: Robbie Tinman
3D MODELLING AND RENDERING INTRO: Martin McDonald
ORIGINAL ANIMATION DRAWMINGS: Mark Povey
BACKGROUND DESIGN/VIEW SCREEN PICTURE DESIGN: Matthew Wood
BACKGROUND DESIGN: Ivan Davies
MUSIC COMPOSITION/SOUND DRIVER/SOUND PROGRAMMER: Jonathan Dunn
ADDITIONAL SFX: Keith Tinman
DESIGN/PLANNING/OBJECT DESIGN AND ANIMATION/VISUAL EFFECT DESIGN/ADDITIONAL BACKGROUNDS: Brian "Otaku" Flanagan
MANAGEMENT: Gary Bracey, Ian Turnbull

And nineteen Quality Assurance:



Seems like a lot for a project that could have been....a bit more polished.

That reminds me, I should check out some more stuff by Dunn. His work on this game is pretty interesting, if understated. I'd especially like to hear his Virtual Boy Waterworld score.

Oh, and I can't go without posting a picture of the Shadow molesting a fat female Asian kung-fu fighter:

I'd say that's more than a small bit of info. Thanks a lot!
By the way, I'm starting to believe I'm the only one who loved that movie...

That guy also made some memorable music for many ZX Spectrum games. I used to love his works when I was little.

Here's a small Q&A topic I've just found, for the curious: Link
