History
Oxygen Interactive was founded in 2001 by industry veteran Jim Scott, who had founded Beyond Belief in 1990 and written many products for the Spectrum, C64 & Amstrad.
Oxygen began as part of a group of companies and initially released a number of PC titles including Earth 2150: Lost Souls from the award winning Earth 2150 series. In 2003 Oxygen released its first console title, Perfect Ace Tennis for PS2, to coincide with the Wimbledon Championships: the title went to no.16 in the charts and proved a very successful entry into console publishing for the company.
Oxygen's growth continued as it developed a range of family orientated video games under its "Liquid Games" label which saw over 30 titles launch throughout 2004 to 2006.
