Ultimation began as a partnership between two veterans of the entertainment software business, Dave Bringhurst and Troy Heere, both Engineer and Producers, with advanced skills and experience in both Software Engineering and Software Product Management. At its peak, Ultimation had 17 employees, with annual revenue over a million dollars. The team's diverse skillset included programming, 2D and 3D art, animation, videography, music, and sound effects work. The company appears to have gone out of business after March 2003.
