The team history

The team was born in 1992.  It was founded by a few friends who loved
Amiga and videogames.  The programmer was Alberto Longo.  He started
to program many years before on his C128.  Later he bought an Amiga
500, the same computer he started to use to program "T-RACER", the
first game produced by the team.  Pierpaolo Di Maio worked on musics
and sound effects.  Gianluca Abbate, together with Antonio Beatrice,
worked on graphics.  The first name of the team was "Virtual Dreams".
Under this name they produced T-RACER.  Because of an homonymous team,
they changed name.  Actually Fields of Vision are five people.  they
are working on a new game named "BREATHLESS", using a powerfull 3D
texture mapping engine.
