25 years of pangea software
Pangea Software is an Apple product game company based in Austin, Texas that is owned and operated by Brian Greenstone. Founded in 1987, the company began as a developer of Apple II games, with the first (and most notable) being Xenocide. In 1991, they switched to Macintosh development; notable titles included Power Pete, Nanosaur, Bugdom, Cro-Mag Rally, and Otto Matic. Since 2008, the company has mostly ceased developing Mac games and instead chosen to focus on iOS games, due to the latter being a more lucrative market.

Pangea specializes in video games, the majority of which are 3D third person shooters. They have a shareware/demo version available for download from their website; serial numbers must be purchased to unlock the full versions. In 1995, Pangea made a deal with Apple to bundle their games with Macintosh computers; this deal ended in 2006, when Apple decided to stop bundling third-party software.
In addition to games, Pangea also specializes in panoramic photography services.
