	Same thing happened to the game Farey Tale Adventure.  I have seen
some of the source for the program, and it was nice.  Graphics were fantastic
and it seem like it would be very playable.  The project was about 80-80%
done from what I saw, but then Micro-Illusions dropped it for the IIgs.
	Really to bad, because it was one of the best programs I have seen so
far.   A couple months of work on it and it could have been finished.  I know
I waited a long time for it before I found out it had been shelved.

	Well...hopefully better luck in the future...
