Racing game developer Blimey! Games, has emerged from the ashes of 10Tacle Games as Slightly Mad Studios.

CEO of Blimey! Games Ian Bell, who previously founded Simbin Games, has concluded a deal with administrators David Rubin & Partners to save the business as a going concern.

Blimey! was able to continue as a going concern until last Friday, when it became clear that the company was insolvent. The sale of the assets and business was concluded in a few days, which should give Slightly Mad a fighting chance to retain the jobs of all staff and pay their creditors.

Against the odds, Blimey! Games is not going into the GameOverZone.
