Success
The greatest success and fame of the company brought a series of strategic games Earth. The company has been engaged in this series for more than 10 years. Recall that the first game in this series Earth 2140 (Earth 2140) was released in 1997. This is a 2-dimensional real-time strategy. The game was little known at that time. After some time, the company released a sequel for her, but in a 3-dimensional version. Earth 2150 became a hit in Europe.
Bankruptcy
In May 2015, it became known that the game developer Reality Pump Studios was most likely bankrupt because Raven's Cry had very little financial profit. Also, 20 people from Reality Pump quit their jobs and joined the Bloober Team.
TopWare Interactive itself claims that it has not closed Reality Pump Studios, but says that the studio consisted of several legal entities, and only one of them went bankrupt, and the rest of the company is going to be restructured.
