Originally founded in 2003 by Ted Spooner, Phineas Barnes and Daryn Chapman in Portland Oregon around Phineas's idea to create a virtual personal trainer for video game consoles. The result was Yourself!Fitness a game/program that guided users through a series of workouts to better their health. Noted as one of the pre-eminent fitness gaming, or exergaming titles, it continues to garner attention as a popular serious game.

Legal

In 2004, responDesign inc. was sued, along with Microsoft by writer Roger Avary. The suit centred around the alleged use of one of Avery's ideas, Virtual Yoga, for a game created in partnership by responDesign and Microsoft. Chief Executive of the company claimed this allegation was bogus.
