TamTam
From Game Developer Research Institute
TamTam Co.,Ltd. (株式会社タムタム) was established June 12, 1991 by Atsushi Kanao (金尾淳), who had previously worked as a programmer for Enix and FairyTale, and helped establish Elf in 1989. It allegedly had its roots in Kanao's high school computer club, where the original team met. The company was based in Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo.
TamTam entered bankruptcy proceedings in November 2017. [1]
