Development and Reception
Heart of Darkness took six years to develop. These years were spent creating the game's musical score, the graphics, and the FMV sequences. There was a bidding war to distribute the game which Infogrames won. Other bidding companies included Sega and Atari. Atari had plans to put the game on the Atari Jaguar CD instead of the PlayStation.
The game was released to generally good reviews. The most common complaints were the weak story, short length of the game and the low resolution. However, the game managed to sell one and a half million copies.
Amazing Studio nonetheless went bankrupt after the fight in court between all the authors.
