Too Kyo Games
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 "" (2016) and the video game "" (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. The company's name is a wordplay on "Tokyo" – where they are based – and the Japanese word , thus meaning "Too Crazy Games". The company was announced to the public in September 2018, announcing that four projects were under development. Three have been revealed as the games "World's End Club" and  , and the anime series "Akudama Drive". "Rain Code" began development 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; he also mentioned that he would still like to go back to the "Danganronpa" franchise at some point in the future.
