3DO Games
They were on the original "Signed Up Developer List" Published by 3DO. Only one potential title, is Akria, that I found on an internet bulletin board from around that time. The actual title was to be released on the Sega Megadrive and Sega CD but was canned. A prototype was found and released in 2018, but no other mention of 3DO in any magazines etc, so think it was highly unlikely it was ever linked.
