The company released Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars and Monster Madness: Grave Danger in 2008, and continued on other projects including contract work for several big-budget titles. The company then worked on Battle-Cars's successor, Rocket League, which became a commercial success for the company, grossing over $70 million. The success of Rocket League caused the company to adjust its business models, where the company would focus on developing their own original games instead of accepting more contract work.
