Gremlin Industries, not to be confused with Gremlin Graphics or Gremlin Interactive, was an arcade game manufacturer founded in 1973 based in San Diego, California; in 1976, they released Blockade, Comotion and Hustle, all of which are essentially the same game but with some minor differences. In 1977, they released Depthcharge and Safari - and in 1978, they released Blasto and Frogs (Namco also licensed their very first arcade game, Gee Bee, to them for US manufacture and distribution, during that year). In 1979, they released Head On (to which Sega produced a sequel, Head On 2); in 1980, Nichibutsu and Nintendo licensed Moon Cresta and Space Firebird to them, for US manufacture and distribution. Finally, in 1981, they released a vector game called Eliminator, of which there were two versions - a 2-player one (housed in an upright cabinet), and a 4-player one (housed in a cocktail table).
