Software Creations (uk)




Software Creations is a Video Game Developer based out of Manchester , England first established in 1987 . They are primarily known for their Video Games based on movie and comic licenses like Marvel Comics , Cutthroat Island , Disney's Beauty And The Beast and original titles Solstice and sequel Equinox . Software Creations titles in their later years were all published by now defunct company, Acclaim Entertainment and by May, 2002 Acclaim had purchased most of their assets and established their own inhouse development unit, '''Acclaim Studios Manchester'''. Software Creations CEO , Paul Hibbard after the take-over moved over to the new company as General Manager with all titles produced since released as being created by "Acclaim Entertainment". Just prior to Acclaims collapse in 2004 , the Manchester studio was dismantled and sold off to try and cover Acclaims finacial difficulties.

In their early history, Software Creations ported popular titles to other platforms such as the Commodore 64 , ZX Spectrum , Amiga , Atari ST , NES and the Game Boy . Besides a few exceptions it wasn't until the 16-bit consoles, ie the Super Nintendo and Sega Megadrive did the developer begin to produce titles with significant appeal.
