Notes:   [1] Game design by Damon Slye. The 3D world of ARCTICFOX was created by coder Paul Bowman using a proprietary graphics package called 3-Space. [2] The inside cover of the original EA release of ARCTICFOX identifies the Dynamix coders in a photo and discusses development of the game (see HERE). TRIVIA: [1] ARCTICFOX represented Dynamix's first major development contract. They were given a whopping US$35,000 budget for the game by EA and developed it on a pre-release Amiga packaged in a black steel box with a wooden keyboard [Source: Damon Slye]. [2] The words 'We build Worlds' shown in the game intro was the motto adopted by developers Dynamix.
