The original Twilight II was a commercial product sold by Digisoft
Innovations.  Jim Maricondo was starting to work on an update (1995 time
frame) when he handed the project over to Nathan Mates.  Nathan made many
improvements in Twilight II and received permission to release it as beta
software limited to Delphi A2 members.  The catch was you needed to be a
$35 / year member to have access to the file library where he uploaded it.
This was in the 1998 time frame.  The only other place it was available was
via Juiced.GS that was given permission to distribute it on their disk of
the month set.

Anyhow, it was just after that that Nathan had his infamous meltdown and
left the Apple II world.  The new Twilight II never progressed beyond this
restricted distribution but was otherwise pretty much done.  Today the only
places you can get the old beta is Syndicomm Online's file library (which
was running Delphi A2 at the time and the files were moved there) and
Juiced.GS's Friends For Life CD also available from Syndicomm in their
online store.

The Friends For Life CD is $30 or a year membership to Syndicomm Online,
which among other things gives you access to their huge file library, costs
$35.
