Denki Limited is a British video game developer based in Dundee and founded in January 2000 by four former DMA Design employees.
Four former employees of DMA Design—Colin Anderson, Stewart Graham, Aaron Puzey, and David Jones—founded Denki in January 2000.
[2] In February, Rage Software acquired 20% of Denki for £125,000 and agreed to publish the first three games by the developer.
Adventure on Soccer Island – based on the famous English footballer – also published by Rage in August 2002.
[15] When Realtime Worlds first created the concept, Denki provided design and audio consultancy for the project.
Denki's input was instrumental in helping Realtime Worlds to secure its publishing agreement with Microsoft for the title.
[17] Following the company's decision to focus on the new generation of platforms, Denki was working on two original new games.
In August 2009, Denki showed Quarrel in public for the first time, at the Dare to be Digital ProtoPlay event.
On 7 June 2011, UTV Ignition Entertainment announced they were bringing Quarrel to iOS devices, XBLA and Facebook.
[32] On 5 July 2017, Denki announced the public release of its "Autonauts" demo via the Itch.io gaming platform.
This was followed by an announcement on 16 July 2019 by Curve Digital that it was working with Denki to bring their "unique management sim Autonauts to PC this autumn" and that the demo version had been downloaded "over 300,000" times since launching in 2017.
This was a new game expanding on the create and automate features in the original Autonauts but added ways to attack and defend from five levels of an invading piratebot army.
