Luxoflux

Luxoflux Corp. was an American video game developer founded by Peter Morawiec and Adrian Stephens in January 1997, and based in Santa Monica, California.

History
Luxoflux had a relatively small-sized development team for its first few titles. The two founders were joined by Jeremy Engelman, David Goodrich and Edvard Toth, and released their first title Vigilante 8 to great success. The game was ported to the Nintendo 64, and was followed by the sequel Vigilante 8: 2nd Offense in 1999.

In October 2002, Activision announced it had purchased Luxoflux for an undisclosed price, which at the time was working on True Crime: Streets of LA. The studio delivered the game and its sequel, True Crime: New York City, before working on licensed titles Shrek 2, Kung Fu Panda and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

On February 11, 2010, Activision announced it had shut down Luxoflux and Underground Development as part of a widespread staff reduction.
