The company quickly expanded beyond audio work, focusing on developing new game cartridges for the console during its late-1980s market resurgence, a period when the system saw renewed interest after the 1983 video game crash. As the sole producer of Intellivision titles during this revival, Realtime Associates employed many of the original "Blue Sky Rangers" from 's Intellivision team, leveraging their expertise to revive the platform. Over the next few years, the small team faced challenges typical of the post-crash industry, including limited resources and the need to adapt aging hardware to modern development practices, but grew by establishing core pipelines for game programming and audio integration. This period saw the production of approximately 25 new, enhanced, and licensed cartridges, including sports simulations and arcade ports that helped sustain the console's library. These efforts solidified the company's reputation in cartridge-based development, transitioning from a niche audio firm to a full-service game developer amid a competitive landscape dominated by emerging 8-bit systems.
