Radarsoft

In 1986 Radarsoft went to the American video game market, but a packaging error at a Dutch warehouse cost the studio more money than they were able to recoup. The software company was created after John Vanderaart, Cees Kramer and Edwin Neuteboom, who had already made several games together, met law student Leonardo Jacobs. Later, the four students from Leiden worked with the cartoonist Wijo Koek. They got in touch with Maurice de Hond through Jacobs, and were commissioned to make a topography program. This program was included with the purchase of a Commodore 64 or ZX Spectrum from V&D or Dixons. While initially only released in the Netherlands, this program was later translated and published in Finland as well. Some of Radarsoft's most successful games include the shooter Eindeloos (aka Endless or Infinitis, 1985, also released in France and England) and the platform game Hopeloos (Hopeless, 1986). The games Topografie Nederland and Tempo Typen were used in the television game show It's All in the Game. They also released a Commodore 64 platform game featuring Snoopy (1984) and Co & Co (1985). The last game Radarsoft has been credited for is Zenith (1997), a pinball game for the Philips CD-i. Radarsoft now focuses on educational multimedia software and multimedia projects on CD-ROM, DVD and internet.
