'' – based on the famous English footballer – also published by Rage in August 2002. Both games picked up widespread critical acclaim and ''Denki Blocks!'' received several awards. However sales for both titles did not meet expectations. As part of the promotional campaign for ''Denki Blocks!'', the company created a version of the game for the newly launched games service on Sky Television in the UK. The response to the game was positive and Denki made the decision to focus on this new platform.

Digital Interactive Television games

''Denki Blocks!'', Denki's first title for Sky Television was released on 9 October 2001 when Sky Gamestar launched. It was accessible by all Sky digital subscribers, using only the standard set-top box and controller. Given the favourable response to this initial title, Denki was asked to create a number of other titles for Sky – both original and based on brands from television and movies. Over the next seven years, Denki focused on DiTV games. The company refined their design and development process to the point where it could take an agreed design document and produce a completed title in under ten weeks.

Non-DiTV projects

While the majority of the titles created by Denki during this period were for DiTV platforms, the company also worked on two other significant projects ''InQuizitor'' is a game-based learning tool, created in conjunction with educational gaming company 3MRT. lDenki provided graphic design services to the company then developing the game with 3MRT.
