Resolution Interactive Acquires Games Rights From Daydream

by Rainier on Feb. 10, 2004 @ 3:16 a.m. PST

Resolution Interactive has acquired full rights from Daydream Software to computer games Clusterball and X-Team Racing, and the game concepts Scarcefreak and Billion Dollar Disc. The agreement includes code, design and community servers, as well as customer databases. One exception is South America, where Daydream keeps the Clusterball and X-Team Racing rights for 3 years in order to complete unfinished business. Daydream is also allowed to use existing Autobahn code in its future production.

"We now control a number of products with a large and faithful group of gamers around the globe. This agreement gives us access to ideas, concepts and technologies developed during our 6 years at Daydream. Together with our partners, we can now focus on sequels to Clusterball, selling network API Autobahn as middleware product, and start promoting new innovative game titles allowing players from all over the world to meet," says CEO Matti Larsson, Resolution Interactive.

Resolution is the kernel of a 40 people large network presently developing the following new game titles:

  • Clusterball 2 - a high-paced, adrenaline pumping flight sport demanding skill, tactics and ball control, designed as a first person shooter but without the splatter and gore.
  • Furiae - a fantasy world with graphics and characters of unsurpassed quality, created by the world famous digital artist Linda Bergkvist.
  • Sprint Madness - an online car racing game based on the ideas and style from early, classic arcade racing games, spiced with maximal interactivity and fun.
  • Righteous Battles - a community-based strategy game in which you create your own religion, and enforce it in real time battles with vast armies.
  • Tompta - a games and full-length feature film co-production based on the old beliefs in house gnomes.

Resolution Interactive AB is a company based in UmeƄ, Sweden, focusing on online games and technology development, branding and sales.
