Latest issue of Retrogamer #185 mentions features Game Theory as an example of 8-bit minigames in the article The Making Of Batalyx (Batalyx is a Jeff Minter C64 game).

It's just two sentences: "This homebrew release for the VIC-20 riffs on WarioWare with tiny challenges lasting just a few seconds, raging from catching ghosts to popping ballons. A sequel has since followed proving that the 8-bit mingame collections genre lives on!"

But there's a nice screenshot too :)

I missed this and cannot seem to find it. Can anyone get me just a quick snap shot of the article or the blurb where I am mentioned?

I don't have access to a scanner right now, but I took a photo of the page. Let me know if it will do.
