About Pipeworks

Pipeworks Software was founded in 1999 by a group of people who came together with a commitment to making high quality games and delivering a satisfying experience to our clients. Those ideas continue to drive everything that we do today. We are a versatile developer of fun console games, with an emphasis on absolute dependability for our publishing partners. When we commit to something, we will deliver it at a high quality and on time. Pipeworks is part of Foundation 9 Entertainment, a collective of independent game development studios located all over the world.

During our 11 years in business, we have crafted titles including platformers, brawlers, driving games, rhythm games, and board games. We have the distinction of shipping a launch title for the Nintendo Wii, Rampage: Total Destruction, which has sold over one million units. We have also shipped these exciting titles: Godzilla: Unleashed, Boogie, Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, Deadliest Warrior, Monopoly, Zumba, U Draw and Charm Girls Club.

Besides being one of the first independent developers to work on the Wii, Pipeworks was also in on the ground floor of development on the Microsoft Xbox and Xbox 360, creating the boot ROMS for both systems and several cutting-edge Xbox demos, designed to show off the capabilities of the system before it launched.

Pipeworks is located in the Pacific Northwest in beautiful Eugene, Oregon, home to the University of Oregon.
