History
The studio acquired the staff from studios owned by Equinoxe Digital Entertainment and middleware, like Tatsu lighting tool/physics engine, Infernal Engine, Sketcher Engine model creation tool/game engine/face animation tool, PhD motion poster creation/3D photo editing/illustration tool and kAI and mAI artificial intelligence engines.

Later on, Sketcher model creation and face animation tools were sperated from the game engine itself; and was renamed Sketcher Model Pro. Tatsu lighting tool/physics engine, Sketcher Model Pro, PhD and kAI/mAI were then transferred under "Balls" Game Labs in February 2015. Wingstar Studios merged the code and assets of Infernal and Sketcher engines and created Wingstar Engine.

Staff
After several years of financial struggles, on June 11, 2014, Balls Corporation filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection for 14 days. "Balls" closed 105 units and studios between January and August 2014 and they were all announced to have a Montréal studio as a successor, as of August 2014. Some staff from the same studios moved to either Dambuster Studios (owned by Deep Silver), Team Chu, "Balls" Game Labs, Slik Games South or Slik Games UK.
