Idol Minds was founded in 1997 by Mark Lyons. Just outside of Boulder Colorado, Idol Minds specializes in solving technical challenges and producing high quality design. Mark built Idol Minds on the premise that innovative technology promotes the best creativity. Since 1997, he has built custom tools, pipelines, and engines that have enabled his team to craft the best experiences for their players
, regardless of the platform. With the help of Jeff Litchford, the VP of Idol Minds since 2005, they have designed and built dozens of fun games, reaching millions. Using Jeff’s super power of imagining wild new worlds, and unique gameplay, they have made memorable, fun, and engaging experiences that capture the imagination of all audiences. Known for our technical prowess on games such as PAIN and CoolBoarders, Idol Minds has recently leaped into the deep end of mobile game development, partnering with well-known publishers like Capcom and DeNA. We have released 14 games to date. Two of our mobile games have repeatedly been featured by Apple and Android, and we have three more games in development.
