ABOUT
WinterCrownWORKS is an indie game development studio founded by Junichiro Ishino and Yu Kajii.
Vision
"Strive to be a Meister."
In winter, master craftsmen retreat to the mountains,
quietly sharpening their blades until they are satisfied.
We aim to create a development site with that same spirit.
Philosophy
Always in motion:
Thinking, Experimenting, Creating.
