>Any chance an artwork package is in development for this one? Beautiful game!

Money and dedication is what is needed and the numbers of contributors isn't what it used to be compared to years earlier. You'd have to find someone willing to contribute money towards buying a background piece from a "parted" Guided Missile cab. And then hope someone can do the blacklight photograph for image just like what was done for Warlords years earlier. There has not been anything done artwork wise for Guided Missile iirc.
With a Qwak piece acquired for future scanning, it will be progress towards preserving Qwak although a Qwak pcb is still needed so proms can be dumped and game then can hopefully be emulated.

SI samples were thrown in just to get game to produce any sounds. Derrick Renaud was mailed Guided Missile logic schematics for audio work years earlier, but he didn't have time to work on them. The various paperwork, including Guided Missile, were mailed back to me so I have Guided Missile logic schematics once again.
Guided Missile likely has a few different components than SI, and different discrete circuitry arrangement therefore the various audio output sound effects will be different than what SI sound outputs.
With discrete portion of MAME being transformed to net_list format, it may be a while before there are audio updates to Midway 8080 hardware.
