HOME Company profile Business description
A planning stage almost always determines the direction of product development.
As this step is that much important, we conduct rigorous exchanges with our client manufacturers for ideas; establish a main project for game machines with emphasis on designing the winning rate of pachinko balls, and plan and propose the video rendition and other designs enhancing the excitement of games. Furthering to realize these ideas we prepare design specifications, and thereby step forward to the street of "Hit Parade".
We offer all the programming services required for game development concerning various controls including: a main control for ball winning rate and payout; video rendition control; sound and light effect control. We have highly talented programmers well versed in the mechanisms and roles of game machine controls, perfecting original development tools for performing efficient work, while receiving the highest confidence from our client manufacturers.
Design, though casually spoken, requires a multitude of design works, that is, characters to appear and patterns to be displayed on a LCD screen, the board face of a game machine, the yakumono (i.e., bonus reward system), a case panel, and so on. Since they are critical part of the work determining final product level, we do it by refining a design selected from a number of candidates so as to best fit the product concept.
For 2D or 3D CG videos, our creators, highly talented in each field, are sure to bring their best video work to the table. We can, of course, offer the high-end computer graphics that are in high demand in recent years. Thanks to our know-how accumulated for rendition techniques specific to game machines you can expect more than just a beautiful CG video.
The sounds of game machines are often very difficult to hear inside noisy parlors. However, we are constantly exploring the values of indispensable sounds, their utilization techniques, and rendition methods to produce sound effects and inserted music.
