A taxi on a rainy night. From TAILLIGHTS.
0 state (read “love state”) is a creative studio that makes games.
We write it 0 state and read it love state. In tennis, a score of zero is called love. One story says it comes from playing for love: for the game itself, with nothing to win.
That is how we make games: towns to wander, and stories that take their time.
0 state: written zero, read love.

A co-op game about a museum at night. Before the doors open at nine, carry the pieces in, hang every painting straight at 145 cm and turn the sculptures to face the room. Drop the vase and it breaks.

Drive the town you grew up in, once more.
A driving game set in a small town, from morning until the middle of the night. Drive a taxi, carry parcels, and the passengers' stories start to connect. Real rules of the road, with a steering wheel or a controller.
The town is already there: a red-brick station, the Ichibangai gate, a temple up the stone steps, a forest park with a red bridge, a museum and an expressway.

And two more. Two more big games are in pre-production, both set in the same town as TAILLIGHTS. We'll show them when they're ready.
