Perfect Entertainment is best known for its popular
point-and-click adventure games
Discworld,
Discworld II: Missing Presumed...!? and
Discworld Noir, which are based on the
Terry Pratchett novel series
Discworld. Teeny Weeny Games was the initial funding source of Perfect Entertainment's speculative product demo of
Discworld. Perfect Entertainment produced the majority of
Psygnosis games ported to the
Sega Saturn, since
Sony, owner of Psygnosis, wasn't willing to fund games for a rival console. In 1995, they acquired
Tantalus Entertainment some time after its founding. Perfect Entertainment's
Manchester offices were destroyed in the
1996 IRA bombing. They were developing
Discworld II and Saturn port of
FIFA 97 at the time. Most of the assets, staff and risks of Perfect Entertainment were absorbed into what became Teeny Weeny Games' second incarnation in 1999 on the completion of the
Discworld Noir. Partly due to a costly and protracted legal dispute with Psygnosis over unpaid royalties and fees which were eventually settled out of court and partly due to arguments at board level, it was decided to scale the company down to allow unhappy stakeholders to leave. Tantalus Entertainment (now
Tantalus Media) in Melbourne, Australia was sold back to its original directors. In early 2000, Teeny Weeny Games was contracted by 20th Century Fox to supply "The World's Scariest Car Chases" on a $3,600,000 contract, a game already under development for over a year. The producer of this project and various other staff bought a majority shareholding and took over the company. Teeny Weeny Games closed a year later. == Games ==
