Vicarious Visions is an American video game developer. It was founded by brothers Karthik and Guha Bala while in high school circa 1990. They later developed Terminus, which won two Independent Games Festival Awards in 1999. They became known as a leading developer of handheld games breaking ground by porting the Tony Hawk's series to Game Boy Advance for the system launch in 2001 and were responsible for the Nintendo DS versions of the Spider-Man games, Spider-Man 2 and Ultimate Spider-Man. They're also known for Crash Nitro Kart and ports of Jedi Knight II & Jedi Academy as well as porting id Software's Doom 3 to the Xbox.
Terminus, an online, multiplayer space trading and combat simulation game, was notable for including Windows, Linux, and Macintosh versions in its retail packaging. The game is currently fan-supported. In 2003, Vicarious Visions acquired the assets of struggling middleware tools provider Intrinsic Graphics, folding the technology into its own production suite.
