In a quick effort to hide this failure, the character of ET was created as a scapegoat. During the video game crash of 1984, Gwimbly's original company was forced to sell most of its assets, including Gwimbly. The IP was then bought up by Insane Groundbreaking Games. This new studio would go on to create the most well-known games in the series.

I decided to port the first Gwimbly game to preserve it for both old and new fans.
