Sweet Baby Inc doesn't even remotely do what many think it does, but on the modern internet, that doesn't matter

When I was still buying new games, I've had development studios I preferred, and others I avoided. Those were simpler times (and simpler games), when one small studio did everything.

Later, additional external companies got involved, and some tried to hide their presence. I remember when The Adventure Company started using a very customer unfriendly sort of copy protection, and I started using a list of affectted games, so that I could avoid them.

These days, multiple companies are involved with game design. As a consumer, it's only normal that I'd like to know who had their hands on developing a game I'd be interested in. I haven't played any games Sweet Baby was involved with, but if I did and had a strong opinion (negative or positive) about their work, I'd appreciate a list of games they worked on, to make a purchase choice that would suit me best.
