Allumer, Ltd. (アルュメ株式会社), was a video game production company, established in February 1978 and headquartered in Meguro, Tokyo, Japan. The company suspended business in October 5, 1999.[1] In February 2023, Japanese video game publisher Hamster Corporation acquired the rights to Allumer's catalog of titles.[2] After the acquisition, the games from the company began to appear on their Arcade Archives series of re-releases, beginning with Magical Speed. Other titles from the company, such as Blandia, Rezon, Mad Shark, Zing Zing Zip, and War of Aero started appearing afterwards.
