AKABEiSOFTMangaGamer has announced that three more companies will be attending Anime Expo with them this year, increasing the game creation providers up significantly for this year. While the companies are known, the people representing them are not yet and likely won’t be until the convention is closer due to the way schedules can change. Joining MangaGamer will be:
AKABEiSOFT
AKABEiSOFT was originally a doujin circle who published their own original and parody works, but in 2005, they became the company known as AKABEiSOFT2. Under this brand name, they’ve published many great titles such as Devil on a G-String, Sharin no Kuni Himawari no Shoujo, and World Love Organization. They also expanded into several other brands such as Shangri-La, known for Akatsuki no Goei, Akatasuki Works, known for Rui ha Tomo wo Yobu, WHEEL, known for ~Pantsu wo Miseru Koto, Sore ga…~ Daiuchuu no Hokori, and even creating a sister brand Effordum, which brought out games like Concerto Note. Although they’ve blocked foreign IPs from viewing their websites, they’ll be coming out to meet fans from the West this year, so be sure to come show them that you’re interested! This may be the first step towards something more……
Debonosu Works
Debonosu Productions is an eroge brand founded by Yamamoto Kazue after parting ways Studio e.go together with several other ex-e.go staff in March 2009. As one of those who founded Studio e.go, she’s worked on the artwork for every Studio e.go game from its inception in 1998-99, and the staff who left to join Debonosu with her have worked on nearly all of them as well. Now, as Debonosu, these fine people continue their proud tradition of creating eroge with extensive interactivity.
Clochette
Founded in 2008, Clochette is known for making games with great characters, sweet romances, stunning visuals, and highly enjoyable H-scenes. Their latest release, Kamikaze Explorer, was just recently released in Japan, and boasts full artwork and animation in 720p HD and character sprites that move more fluidly than in most other games. You can view the HD Opening Movie below.
