[1] Gamecock's existence was announced on February 12, 2007,[2][3][4][5] and coincided with the reveal of the first five games that would be released through Gamecock—Fury by Auran, Insecticide by Crackpot Entertainment, Mushroom Men by Red Fly Studio, Hail to the Chimp by Wideload Games, and Hero by Firefly Studios.

[6][7] Gamecock used a more hands-off approach and allowed developers creative freedom with their work, as well as letting them keep their own intellectual property.
