This article is about Dynamix, a defunct company that developed computer games. For the sport and recreational center in Poznań , Poland , see Dynamix (Poznan) .
was an American Developer of Computer Game s. The company was founded in 1984 by Jeff Tunnell and Damon Slye in Eugene, Oregon .
Their first title was '' Stellar 7 ''. Originally released before the founding of Dynamix, the game was later re-released with the Dynamix name on it and thus became the company's first published title. They made a number of games for the Commodore 64 , among them Project Firestart which was one of the most atmospheric titles for the C64.
In the following years, Dynamix created a line of action games for Electronic Arts , including one of the first games for the Commodore Amiga , '' Arctic Fox ''. Later titles were developed for Activision . After self-publishing their games for a short while, in 1990 Dynamix was bought by Sierra On-Line .
Once part of Sierra, Dynamix created some of their most famous games, including a line of Adventure s and Flight Simulation s that included '' Red Baron '' and '' The Adventures Of Willy Beamish ''. They also created the puzzle game '' The Incredible Machine '', along with the spinoff '' Sid & Al's Incredible Toons ''. Another successful product line was the Front Pages Sports series, designed by Pat Cook and Allen McPheeters which included Football, Baseball, and Golf. Versions of Red Baron and Front Page Sports Football were included as part of the ImagiNation Network .
In 1994 , the first game in a new series called '' MetalTech '' was released, a giant robot combat game with similarities to the '' BattleTech '' universe and games. This series resulted in two '' Earthsiege '' games and eventually '' Starsiege ''. As a side development of the '' Starsiege '' game, the successful '' Tribes '' series was created. Dynamix also created the second game in Sierra's strategy/survival franchise called '' Outpost ''.
The Dynamix studio was closed by its parent company Sierra in August 2001 , as part of Sierra's restructuring under Vivendi Universal . Several veterans of the studio (including Tunnell), however, stayed in Eugene and founded a new studio / electronic publisher, GarageGames .
