The game company makes
another attempt to make money on the prototype: they approach a company which
develops expensive simulators for the US Army. But, with the end of the Cold
War, the company lost most of its orders and it is now busy converting a multi-million
dollar simulator into an add-on level for the popular computer game Quake.
They make one more attempt approaching the US Navy Simulation Division directly;
but their engineers are also not interested. They are converting their own simulator
(which is based on customized computer game Doom) into a commercial game
for Sony Playstation. Frustrated, the game company recycles part of a computer
code from the prototype for their own internal database which tracks employee
benefits, and permanently shelves the project.[8]
