The current phone number for Software Heaven/FTL is (619) 453-5711.
I just called them yesterday to see if they were planning on doing
a Mac version on Dungeon Master.  To my demise they said "the project
was on the 'back burner'" and that they were currently working on the
IBM version.  I fail to understand why they would not see a Mac
version as being both profitable and fairly easy.  They've already
done a IIGS version, and having programmed both the Mac and IIGS I can
tell you that the two machines are extremely similiar.  But seeing as
how an IBM version would be more in their interests, I s'pose we'll
have to understand them if not forgive them.
