Company: Love-de-Lic

After making only three games (Moon: Remix RPG Adventure, UFO: A Day in the Life, and L.O.L.: Lack of Love), Love-de-Lic folded in 2000, with many of its staff members going on to work for other companies. These include:

• Skip Ltd., a company with a close relationship to Nintendo, who published all their Japanese releases (with the exception of LOL, which was published by Skip themselves). They eventually changed their name to Skip Inc. and became inactive on social media, leading to reports that the company had gone defunct, something that was ultimately confirmed true by former employee Hiroshi Moriyama on Twitter in March 2024.
• Vanpool, who were known primarily for their work on the Dillon's Rolling Western series and co-developing the Kirby series starting with Super Kirby Clash. They were ultimately shut down on May 31, 2023.
• Punchline, who only developed two games (Chulip and Rule of Rose) before shutting down as well.

Later, several former staff members from Love-de-Lic such as Yoshiro Kimura, Kazuyuki Kurashima, and Hirofumi Taniguchi would go on to join Onion Games, where they not only released a port of Moon to modern consoles, but also gave it an official English release for the first time.
