Designer's Republic? They were definitely involved in the original design for Wip3out. The packaging and manual alone still feel fresh after almost 30 years IMHO: https://www.mobygames.com/game/wipeout/cover-art/gameCoverId,42640/ https://www.mobygames.com/game/wipeout/cover-art/gameCoverId... You can see the little "I love my DR" logo on the back cover: https://www.mobygames.com/game/wipeout/cover-art/gameCoverId,42707/ https://www.mobygames.com/game/wipeout/cover-art/gameCoverId... https://www.mobygames.com/game/wipeout/cover-art/gameCoverId,175870/ https://www.mobygames.com/game/wipeout/cover-art/gameCoverId... It truly felt like "an experience from the future" back in 1995 - and to some extent still does, for this fan at least :)

I think you misunderstood the parent.

  What's the non-misunderstood interpretation, because I also don't get it? If it's about Studio Liverpool, that's also wrong since Studio Liverpool was just a rename of the original developer Psygnosis after it got integrated deeper into Sony.

    The original parent claimed that Designers Republic only collaborated on the design of Wipeout 3 (also known as Wip3out). The user replying countered this with proof that they collaborated on Wipeout 3.

      All those links are to the first game, not Wipeout 3.

        If the confusion stems from me writing 'Wip3out' I'm sorry about that, just a habit of mine. I've always written out any WipEout title as Wip3out (the capital 'E' looked like a horizontally flipped `3` in the original DR design). I was referring to the source leak related title, the original WipEout (1) of course (see cover art links).

        Oh, ok. That totally checks out and is my bad for further confusing an already confusing situation.
