The Silicon Valley spin-off called itself Lavastorm Engineering, and was one of the first companies producing mobile games. Paul Abbassi was CEO and CTO, Jason Loia was Director of Wireless Entertainment, and Albert So was the Chief Mobile Code Monkey (programmer). It produced over 30 games for mobile phones, using BREW and Java ME, mostly based on licenses from other companies, such as the movies Van Helsing, and The Incredibles, and Capcom's classic video game Mega Man. The company dissolved in 2005, with many developers moving on to found Punch Entertainment, Inc.
