Company Info

The 16-bit computers and the launch of Tomahawk (1987-1989)

In 1987, the Atari ST was gaining popularity, and the IBM PC had a significant part of the market. It was time for Coktel Vision to start working on these 16-bit systems. Roland Oskian founded Inférence MDO with Mathieu Marciacq and Arnaud Delrue, the latter being a graduate of Supélec university. Inférence was based in Bordeaux, in the south-west of France, 500 km away from Paris ! Loriciels et Silmarils had small teams out of Paris too, but these teams worked independently on their own games. Here, Inférence handled all the programming, while the design and graphics stayed in Boulogne. Designers and programmers first talked about the projects through phone conferences, then the artists made the graphics and sent them to Bordeaux (by mail, and later by modem). This uncommon organization was certainly motivated by the fact that there were two universities in Bordeaux with computeer enginering and electronics curriculums (Bordeaux-1 and Supinfo), and Coktel Vision could work with them to find newly graduated programmers.
