The first 20 years of video game developing in Sweden included work mostly done by separate individuals. Developing costs increased and the industry structure became more complex over time. Mapping the business of Swedish game developing history has been relatively problematic, because individuals were spread all over the country while working with different platforms in PDP, C64, VIC-20, Amiga, and IBM PC compatibles. Home computers became the focus for the creativity among often self-educated youths who got access during the 1980s.
In 2018, the Swedish games industry generated €1.8 billion and it employed almost 8,000 people.
For 2017, there were 4.2 million gamers in Sweden who spent $411.7 million.
1980-1989
The colour-graphical VIC-20 home computer was released in 1981. The home computer Commodore 64 was released 1983. The game Space Action (1983) was developed by Arne Fernlund and published by Handic Software.
After 20 years game development shifted towards project groups of game developers.
