Now that we have identified three different sources...
- Becky Heineman, Tony Diaz and Joe Kohn

...and five people who have seen it...
- Becky Heineman, Tony Diaz, Joe Kohn, Eric Sheperd and Olivier
Zardini (at Becky's a long time ago)

...who among them will share it with our little community? Or send it
to me and let me upload to BD's site with all ID marks removed, if
any.

Let's talk about it a little bit after my today's conversation with
Olivier: SimCity is a 320*200*16 colors desktop program with the city
in a scrollable window. The game is not playable, it is not even an
alpha release.

What is a shame is that the game has been ported on several (let's say
all) platforms and not on our beloved IIgs, I really would like the
game to be available to the IIgs just like Olivier and I did for
LemminGS.
