Mimori used custom sound drivers by Tamtex. Since most of the company's games lacked credits, it is unknown who programmed the drivers, or if Ikuko wrote them herself.

 +
''Daiku no Gen-san 2'' uses [[Micronics]]' last sound driver, so it is most likely someone from Micronics arranged her music into the sound driver. It used a custom [[Music Macro Language]], using a pair of hexadecimal numbers; the first denotes the note's pitch, and the second its length.

Ikuko Mimori is a Japanese composer and sound designer. She joined Tamtex, later known as Irem Tokyo Development Division, in 1986 and composed the music to many of their games, primarily for the home console market. Some of her best known games include Hototogisu (FC) and R-Type III (SNES). She later left Tamtex and worked on Nintendo's Pokemon Snap!.

Since March 11, 2010, Ikuko's website has been under construction. It is currently unknown what Ikuko does today.

Mimori used custom sound drivers by Tamtex. Since most of the company's games lacked credits, it is unknown who programmed the drivers, or if Ikuko wrote them herself.

Daiku no Gen-san 2 uses Micronics' last sound driver, so it is most likely someone from Micronics arranged her music into the sound driver. It used a custom Music Macro Language, using a pair of hexadecimal numbers; the first denotes the note's pitch, and the second its length.
