Namco Hometek, also known under the name Namco: The Game Creator, is a little-known subsidiary of Namco based in the U.S. They were the developers behind most of the Pac-Man games released from the early 90s to the mid-2000s. The company is commonly confused for Namco themselves, but the development teams were completely different, and on different parts of the globe. Their most famous release is Pac-Man World.
