*tank

Hi all,

I'm wondering if anyone here remembers the old Mac shareware game by Stuart Cheshire called Bolo, where you roll around in a tank and try to capture all of the bases on the map. It was one of the first multiplayer games on the Mac, and it was a blast to play.

There were two editors for it - one was Bmapedit, but the other was called BoloStar. BoloStar had a larger view than Bmapedit did, which made it easier to make maps for me, but it also had one more feature: an insanely catchy soundtracker song that played if you went to the menu and clicked "About this software" to see the credits.

So, my quest is this: I am a hobbyist music producer and am working on an electronic dance music track inspired by Bolo and the song that played in Bolostar. (Does anyone have an idea of what the heck I'm talking about?) I want to get in touch with the creators of Bolostar, Dan Rudman and Keith Fry. I thought asking here might be a good place to start, as I couldn't find any contact information for their names when I searched online.

Thanks, Douglas
