History
The orgins of Butterfly Games was in 1985 when two sisters were kicked out of Atari for planning to make a game for the NES. So in 1985, they wanted to have revenge and found a studio themselves. In 1987, they released two games, both on the NES. The Adventures of Petalboy and Rainbow Girls. Their last game of the 1980s was Chickenman in 1989.

In 1992, the studio had an exclusive licensing rights to Nintendo and became strictly a Nintendo developer until 1995 when the studio was acquired by DIC Entertainment. Causing the studio to release licensed games outside of Nintendo consoles. This didn't really matter until 1997 with the relase of Petalboy 64 and Red's Adventure. Which both were released also on the PlayStation.

In 2002, when Disney sold off DIC Entertainment, Vendi Universal Games brought 50% of the studio. With that, the company developed an online service for the Gameboy Advance. Also in the same year, they made another franchise, Milkboy: Tales of a Milk Blob for the Gameboy Advance.

As of 2017, the studio is owned by WildBrain and Activision and remains as a distributer for Activision's games in the UK and Japan.
