Itlit Software is a computer game and middleware developer based in San Diego, California.

Itlit was founded in 2002 as a mobile game developer, responsible for numerous side-scrolling games. All these titles were developed for J2ME and BREW mobile phones. At the start of 2003 Itlit acquired a substantial amount of venture capital funding, allowing a shift from mobile to PC and console systems. Its first title for the PC, Relent: The Fallen, is a FPS/RPG scheduled for release in 2007/2008. Neither the company nor its publisher has released any information about this title, except for it being based on Itlit's in-house 3D engine.

Itlit is best known internationally for developing the RelentENGINE, a 3D engine renowned for its efficient shader model 3 and HDR lighting support. The engine has also received critical acclaim for its support of large, dynamically modifiable environments.
