# Too Kyo Games

Too Kyo Games, LLC (Japanese: トゥーキョーゲームス, Hepburn: Tū Kyō Gēmusu) is a Japanese video game developer founded by ex-employees of Spike Chunsoft. It was formed in 2017 by Danganronpa series creator Kazutaka Kodaka, Zero Escape series creator Kotaro Uchikoshi, composer Masafumi Takada, and artist Rui Komatsuzaki. The company is working on several games, and collaborated with Pierrot on the 2020 anime series Akudama Drive.

## History

Kazutaka Kodaka, the writer of Spike Chunsoft's Danganronpa franchise, started thinking about how he wanted to create his own development company where he could do new things, following the completion of the anime television series Danganronpa 3 (2016) and the video game Danganronpa V3 (2017). He discussed it with the Danganronpa composer and character designer, Masafumi Takada and Rui Komatsuzaki, who also were interested in the idea. Takada founded the company in 2017, as he had already been involved in the launch of other companies. Kodaka also invited other people to join the company, including Kotaro Uchikoshi, the director and scenario writer for Spike Chunsoft's Zero Escape series, the Danganronpa illustrator Shimadoriru, Takumi Nakazawa, the director and co-writer of KID's Infinity series, and the Danganronpa novelist Yoichirou Koizumi. Kodaka, Takada, Komatsuzaki, and Uchikoshi are the core members of the company, and Kodaka is its representative and CEO. The company's name is a wordplay on Tokyo – where they are based – and the Japanese word kyō (狂, "crazy"), thus meaning "Too Crazy Games".
The company was announced to the public in September 2018, announcing that four projects were under development, which were eventually revealed as the games World's End Club, Master Detective Archives: Rain Code, and The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy, and the anime series Akudama Drive. Development of Rain Code began prior to Kodaka's departure from Spike Chunsoft. In addition to these four projects, the company announced and released the FMV game Death Come True in 2020, and announced the "Extreme Baseball" multimedia project Tribe Nine. The goal of the company, according to Kodaka, is to create new intellectual properties, and for the staff to also create their own indie game projects; though he has stated he would like to return to the Danganronpa franchise in the future. Between 2020 and 2023, Too Kyo Games recruited new employees, including Jun Fukuda, the sound designer and composer known for working in the No More Heroes series, UI and graphic designer Yuki Kudo, and novelist Kyohei Ohama.
