'''SemiCom''' (세미콤, lit. ''Semikom'') is a former arcade-game-developing company founded in [[1994]] when the arcade development team of [[Cheil Computer]] (later known as '''First Amusement'''), led by Jeon Jae Yoon, split from the company and reformed; their first two games, '''[[Choky! Choky!]]''', and '''[[Magic Ball Fighting]]''', were released by [[Mijin Computer]] (as was their first game of [[1995]], '''[[Hatch Catch]]''', which played similar to [[Data East]]'s [[Magical Drop]]). However, their second title from that year, '''[[Cookie & Bibi]]''' (which was followed up by two sequels, '''[[Cookie & Bibi 2]]''', and '''[[Cookie & Bibi 3]]''', in [[1996]] and [[1997]]), was released under their own name - as was their first unofficial {{c|Pac-Man}} game '''[[Hyper Pac-Man]]''' (which was followed up by two more, '''[[New Hyper Man]]''' and '''[[Twinkle]]''', in 1997) and '''[[Wonder League Star: Sok-Magicball Fighting]]''' (which is their first sequel to "Magic Ball Fighting", and it was followed up by two more, '''[[Wonder League '96]]''' and '''[[Muhan Seungbu]]''', in 1996 and 1997). The other three games they released in 1996 were '''[[Carket Ball]]''', '''[[Toppy & Rappy]]''' and '''[[SD Fighters]]''' (which was followed up by a sequel, '''[[Cute Fighter]]''', in [[1998]]) and the only other game that they released in 1997 was '''[[XESS: The New Revolution]]''' (a compilation featuring "Cookie & Bibi", "Hyper Pac-Man", which had been renamed to '''Hyper Man''' and removed the final boss's last form, and "New Hyper Man", which was not actually released as a standalone game); after 1998 they switched to manufacturing gambling machines instead.
