SingleTrac Entertainment Technologies

Background
SingleTrac Entertainment Technologies was an American video game developer, mostly for the PlayStation platform. The management team and much of the original development team came from Evans & Sutherland, bringing their 3D graphics and software engineering skills into the video game industry. Its most famous titles were the Twisted Metal and Jet Moto video game series.

The company's first two games, WarHawk and Twisted Metal, were major critical and commercial successes, leading Sony Computer Entertainment to contract two further games from SingleTrac. After producing the two contracted games for SCE, SingleTrac was bought by the video game publisher GT Interactive, and was later closed in 2000. Several employees later formed other companies, including Eat Sleep Play and Incognito Entertainment.

1st Logo (1995-1997)

2nd Logo (1997-2000)
