Nitroplus

Nitroplus is a Japanese company that develops visual novels. Along with MAGES. (at the time known as 5pb), they developed the game ChäoS;HEAd and its enhanced edition, ChäoS;HEAd NoAH, along with the spinoff ChäoS;HEAd Love Chu☆Chu!. Subsequent entries in the Science Adventure Series were mostly done by MAGES./5pb with minimal involvement from Nitroplus. The main thing they provided for the ChäoS;HEAd part of the Science Adventure Series franchise was the Nitroplus game engine, as well as distribution of the games, while 5pb (which later became MAGES.) did most of the creative work.
Later on in the Science Adventure Series, MAGES. did all of that itself: creative work, distribution, and developing its own game engine, so more recent Science Adventure games are made pretty much entirely by MAGES. Nitroplus appears in the credits for the game Steins;Gate, but their involvement is minimal compared to 5pb (the earlier name of the company MAGES.), and in later games in the series, they are not involved at all.
