Unique Development Studios - History

History

UDS was a video game development company founded in 1993 by Michael Brunnström and Peter Zetterberg. Their first game was Obsession in 1994, a pinball game for the Atari ST (later ported to the Amiga). They also released for the STE a game called SubStation in 1995, a first-person shooter similar to Doom. Since then they became a developer for consoles and PC compatibles.

In 2000, the company purchased King of the Jungle, based out of London, which developed games such as Grooverider: Slot Car Thunder and Invasion from Beyond.

In 2004, the company shut down, most likely due to a number of unsuccessful games that were released.
