Free Fall Associates - Twilight

Twilight

Freeman and Westfall went on to develop a few more games, such as Swords of Twilight (1989) for the Amiga and Archon Ultra (1994). Sometime during this period, Reiche left for other opportunities. None of these other games did nearly as well as Free Fall's first two seminal games.

Reiche paired up with programmer Fred Ford and the two developed the highly acclaimed Star Control series, published by Accolade. Star Control is another milestone series and a significant achievement in the history of computer games. Reiche eventually founded the small video game developer Toys for Bob.

After the disappointment of their later titles, Free Fall went on to develop some online card games which were featured on Prodigy's GameTV service. These games included Simplex, Eureka, Reflection, Stop & Go, Grab and Heartless.

Famous quotes containing the word twilight:

    When the spirit brings light into our minds, it dispels darkness. We see it, as we do that of the sun at noon, and need not the twilight of reason to show it us. This light from heaven is strong, clear, and pure carries its own demonstration with it; and we may as naturally take a glow-worm to assist us to discover the sun, as to examine the celestial ray by our dim candle, reason.
    John Locke (1632–1704)

    cover the pale blossoms of your breast
    With your dim heavy hair,
    And trouble with a sigh for all things longing for rest
    The odorous twilight there.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Love that had robbed us of immortal things,
    This little moment mercifully gave,
    Where I have seen across the twilight wave
    The swan sail with her young beneath her wings.
    George Meredith (1828–1909)
