Kodaka was the director and scenario writer for Too Kyo Games’ Death Come True “live-action movie game.” He is also credited with the original story concept for Akatsuki and Too Kyo Games’ new Tribe Nine project, which includes an anime.
Uchikoshi co-wrote KID’s Infinity visual novel series, including Never 7, Ever 17, and Remember 11. He debuted as a director in Spike Chunsoft’s Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors; the first of the company’s Zero Escape series, which includes Virtue’s Last Reward and Zero Time Dilemma. He also penned the scripts for the Punch Line anime, as well as its PS4/PS Vita game adaptation.
