Game development & design

Original games, gameplay systems, art and production. We can discuss a complete project or a defined part of your development work.

Ports & hardware integration

Adapt software to a different computer, display or input system. Our work includes handheld adventure ports and software for classic machines.

Tools & specialist software

Desktop applications, workflows and hardware interfaces built around a practical need—from networking to floppy preservation.

Experience across platforms

Four decades of shipped work.

Our history includes Myst and Riven for Pocket PC, original casual games such as Pet Shop Hop and Cat Wash, and work with PlayFirst, Big Fish Games and Game Show Network. Today we also develop classic-computer software, game engines and tools.
