PC-SIG

PC-SIG was the first mail order shareware disk vendor and one of the biggest shareware distributors in the 1980s. PC-SIG was founded in 1984 by Richard Peterson and soon evolved, creating a network of international dealers and greatly promoting the idea of shareware worldwide. Its "Shareware Magazine" eventually became a bi-monthly sold at newsstands. However, in 1992 or 1993, PC-SIG went out of business unexpectedly and without explanation.

Péndulo Studios, S.L.

Péndulo Studios is a game development studio founded in 1994 in Madrid, Spain by Rafael Latiegui, Ramón Hernáez and Felipe Gómez Pinilla. The company only creates 2D point-and-click adventure games. Péndulo's first title was Igor: Objective Uikokahonia (1994) followed by Hollywood Monsters (1997). At a time when other companies were turning away from adventure games, the studio had its international breakthrough success with Runaway: A Road Adventure (2001), which would eventually form a trilogy with Runaway 2: The Dream of the Turtle (2006) and Runaway: A Twist of Fate (2009). The second title was also the first in the series to be taken to other platforms aside from Windows: the Wii and the Nintendo DS. That experiment was however not repeated for the titles afterwards. After finishing the Runaway trilogy, Péndulo revisited its second game Hollywood Monsters with the sequel The Next Big Thing (2011). The team released Yesterday in March 2012. It was their first game that moved away from the typical quirky characters and humour Péndulo is known for. It has a much more darker atmosphere and a twisted plot.

Pie in the Sky Software

Pie in the Sky Software was a game and software development company located in Fairport, New York (near Rochester), founded by Kevin Stokes in 1987. The company's first product was a 3D screen saver, followed by the shareware 3D flight simulator Corncob 3D. In the early 1990's Pie in the Sky grew and became one of a group of developers working together over the internet. The company's focus shifted to contract work for larger game companies, which resulted in the development of several 3D action titles, one of which was Lethal Tender. In 1995, the company introduced the first version of their Pie In The Sky 3D Game Creation System for MS-DOS. A completely revamped version of that engine was released for Windows, with support for Direct 3D, was released in late 1998. The company discontinued selling this engine in May 2003. Not long afterwards, the company websites became inactive.

Polarware

Founded by Mark Pelczarski, Polarware started out as Penguin Software, the company existed from 1978 until 1987 and eventually became part of another publishing company (probably Merit Studios, Inc.). The company was named "Penguin" from 1981 until about 1986 when legal issues arose with the large book publisher, Penguin Books. Thus the name was changed to Polarware. The Apple II computer was the first personal computer that had color graphics. Their first programs were for drawing, manipulating, and animating graphics on the Apple II, and they were quite popular. The company pioneered much of the field of computer graphics. For a while, a good majority of educational software and games released for the Apple II opened with the "graphics by Penguin Software" acknowledgement. Their software even resides in the archives of the Smithsonian's Museum of American History.
