The first game the company made was ''[[Abuse (computer game)|Abuse]]'', a side-scrolling shoot 'em up game which sold over 80,000 copies worldwide. Abuse was ported to a wide variety of platforms including DOS, Win32, Mac OS, AIX, SGI Irix, Amiga, and Linux. Prior to the company's closing in October 1998, they were working on ''[[Golgotha (computer game)|Golgotha]]'', a hybrid of first-person shooter and real-time strategy.
