Games
Music Development
Game Boy
The company outsourced a sound driver from Junichi Saito. The music was written in a custom MML using a pair of hexadecimal numbers. It was mostly used by Atsuhiro Motoyama, but since none of the games have credits, it's unknown if he composed all of their Game Boy titles.
Genesis
The company used a custom sound driver either from NCS or Dual themselves. Only three games use the driver; Mamono Hunter Youko, Sorcerer's Kingdom, and Trampoline Terror. The latter of the three was the first game to use the driver and lacks credits, but the other two games have credits. Based on the credits of Mamono Hunter Youko, the driver programmer may have been Kayoko Maeda.
