 Some of the games of Nitrome have characters which are inspired by other characters from video games, TV shows, and others.Nitrome's games are published on their website and are often available to license on other websites such as Miniclip, MTV Arcade and Friv.Nitrome's creation stemmed from a conversation between Matthew Annal and Heather Stancliffe, in which Annal suggested that they make a game for mobile phones.
