I had an idea, once, made the game and tried several companies. It might be
that is is different for the Atari ST, but most companies seem to trust
only the programmers they already have, and these programmers don't want
any competition. Only smaller companies are willing to go for it, but these
have a tendency of either not having money, or not making any money, or just
disappearing before you get to say hello to them. Seems the only thing that
works is Shareware. At least you get the credit, then.
