Having reached 25 employees, Mediatonic moved to new offices near Covent Garden in February 2008. Other early games by Mediatonic included Meowcenaries, Gigolo Assassin, Must Eat Birds, and Monsters (Probably) Stole My Princess. Mediatonic was profitable enough in its first year that, following Bailey and Croft's graduation, the studio moved to a former government building in Westminster in February 2006 and hired ten employees. It also created Amateur Surgeon, an original game, for Adult Swim Games. PopCap Games, Big Fish Games and PlayFirst were early Mediatonic clients and, among others, Mediatonic produced Flash conversions of Bejeweled, Bookworm, Diner Dash and Poppit!. ![]() ![]() Snowman Salvage, a game that was part of Croft's dissertation, was Mediatonic's first release in December 2005. With an office near the campus, they set up the company as a work-for-hire studio to create Flash games and sometimes skipped lectures to accept calls from clients. They decided on the opening in a drunken conversation at the university's student union bar. Mediatonic was founded in September 2005 by friends Dave Bailey and Paul Croft, both aged 21 at the time, during their final year at Brunel University.
