Titan (CD-i)

This game was never completed and/or given a public release.
As a result of this, keep in mind that the developers might have used or deleted some of the content featured here, had the game actually been released.

A CD-i port of Titus' Titan action puzzler which, curiously, predates the system's launch by nearly two years! The developers, ISG Productions, originally worked on CD-i emulators, which were shipped to other companies to aid development of their own CD-i models and software, so this was most likely just a proof of concept or experiment.

and finally, Abstract2.msg contains a description of the game:

TITAN CDI

To Succeed this deadly game you must guide the
power ball across the eighty immense and synthitic
worlds using the magical paddle, while avoiding
all manner of death icons.
Ultra-fast scrolling. multi color graphics, 
variety of gameplay, and sheer speed have already 
caused mental breakdowns.
