Tiertex is a company that was formed by Wes Weasley in 1987 to make games, cartoons and YouTube poops, however they are known for poor quality, short development cycles (rushed) and full of mistakes. They also temporarily owned a Japanese studio called Toei from 1992-1997 and they are frequently mistaken for US Gold for some reason. It is located in a converted house somewhere in Manchester. They also bought Koopone Production Ltd., in June 2001 for 2 bucks and half a melted ice cream.
