'''Optimus Software Limited''' was a British development company founded in 1988 (incorporated on 7 March) by brothers Darren and Jason Falcus, who had been independently developing computer games since 1981. It was acquired by Iguana Entertainment in 1993, becoming '''Iguana UK''' (Iguana Entertainment Limited, renamed on 5 March 1993). Iguana was itself later acquired by Acclaim, and in 1999 Iguana UK became '''Acclaim Studios Teesside''' (Acclaim Studios Teesside Limited, renamed on 27 July 1999).

The Falcus brothers left in 2000 to start a new studio called Atomic Planet.
