User:Idrougge/Convoy no nazo
From Game Developer Research Institute
Who made Transformers: Convoy no nazo?
- According to Wikipedia, it is ISCO. But ISCO is known to delegate development work to contractors.
- In this 2ch thread it is mentioned that "people from TOSE" made it.
- It is also mentioned that TOSE tends to use sub-subcontractors from Kyoto/Kansai region. (Even though it itself is a pure subcontractor.)
- A user in the same thread wonder if the developer could be Advance Communication.
- This blog post mentions a developer from Kyoto called Locomotive, working mainly as subcontractor. The blogger, who used to work there, thinks that the company owner could have been the programmer of Convoy no nazo. He mentioned that the game sold well.
- Thanks for finding the Animex post. Locomotive seems like a reasonable guess given that and the fact it was in Kyoto. (Convoy no Nazo also came up in a Tose code comparison.) CRV 04:57, 15 February 2012 (CST)
- And I assume the post about Advance Communication is because of this tweet. CRV 05:20, 15 February 2012 (CST)
