Humongous Entertainment was a really great company, led by the legendary Ron Gilbert of LucasArts fame.  Ron started up a company after selling Humongous several years ago.  His new company is called HulaBee (www.hulabee.com) and they are continuing the tradition of Humongous!

Can't help you with Amiga games, but every single Humongous Entertainment game 
for the PC (Putt-Putt, Freddi Fish, etc.) are really well done.

I love Humongous entertainment!  Almost all of the sound and music for their 
games was done by The 'Fatman and Team Fat' (the same group that gave us the 
music for Wing Commander 1 +2, Ultima Underworld, and 7th Guest).

I doubt that anyone but Jim will get this (unless you're a Humongous fan as 
well), but it's been an hour since I got this email, and I can't stop humming 
'Welcome to the Zoo'!
To get an idea of the great fun of these games, say these lyrics as fast as you 
can!  :)

"Soooo wipe of the windshield so you can see,
The elephant the monkey and the chimpanzze,
Canaries, Takairees, the bears are all hairy,
The cheetahs, cicatas, gorillas and gators,
The emu and the lama very similar to the dromedary,
the turtles and the tortises, the dolphins and the porpises,
Lice, mice, geese, moose--Welcome to the Zoo!"

(Is it weird that I'm secretly proud to have that memorized?)
