In the 2004-2005 school year, Wolverine Soft gain many new members thanks to a successful mass meeting.

Finally, the WolverineWare project was launched as the first true Wolverine Soft community project.

Back in the United States, Ed Baraf devoted most of his energy to developing Crisis Wolverine and advising Wolverine Soft. The group was largely autonomous from him at this point. They worked on assorted small projects.
Crisis Wolverine was the only large project completed and released this year.

2001
In 2001, Ed Baraf spent a year abroad in Japan. He ran Wolverine Soft as President with Phil Cherdron as acting Vice-President. Half-way through the year Phil had to step down, and Paul Oppenheim became the acting Vice-President. At the end of the year Paul and Dave worked on setting up Officer Elections.
The team began the year working on Burnt Planet, but eventually decided to move on to other projects, including Bomberman 3D.

1999
Ed Baraf founded Wolverine Soft in 1999, when he was only a freshman at the University of Michigan. He wanted to make games, and no organization comparable to Wolverine Soft existed at the time, so he took the initiative to create one.
In order to move the charter forward, Ed needed four other members to start the
group. They didn't have officer positions back then, but these guys did it all.
Aside from getting Wolverine Soft started, we worked on Crisis Wolverine for the majority of the year, and then moved to Burnt Planet (3D Scorched Earth).
