This is Nyu Media, Signing Off!

Jun 15, 2022 @ 7:05am - Spriggan
Guys, we had a GREAT run.

When we started this company in 2011, our primary goals were to support some truly talented Japanese indie developers, to introduce Japanese indie games to overseas gamers, and contribute to the growth of the Japanese indie gaming scene. 11 years later, it's fair to say that, while we made mistakes and fell short at times, we achieved what we set out to do and we can call this a 'WIN'.

The video games industry has changed a lot since we started out, and the tools, resources, and perspective available to Japanese indie devs have broadened and improved to the point where there isn't much need for a company like ours... and that's GREAT!! We hope to see more Japanese indie games making it overseas under their own steam (no crappy pun intended)!

So the time has come for us to close the curtain on Nyu Media, but PLEASE NOTE that all games and related DLC in our catalog will remain for sale on Steam, with the exception of the Cherry Tree High games, which will be delisted from all platforms after the final day of this year's Steam Summer Sale.

For clarity, here is list of our current titles and what will happen to them from July 1st:

The following titles and related OST, etc. will remain on sale on Steam and publishing responsibilities will transfer as follows:

- ALLTYNEX Second (SITER SKAIN) > Henteko Doujin[hendj.com] will become the new publisher
- KAMUI (SITER SKAIN) > Henteko Doujin
- RefleX (SITER SKAIN) > Henteko Doujin
- The Tale of ALLTYNEX > Henteko Doujin
- ETHER VAPOR Remaster (Edelweiss) > PLAYISM
- eXceed - Gun Bullet Children (Upgrade) > Upgrade[upgrade-corp.com]
- eXceed 2nd - Vampire REX (Upgrade) > Upgrade
- eXceed 3rd - Jade Penetrate Black Package (Upgrade) > Upgrade
- The eXceed Collection (Upgrade) > Upgrade
- Fairy Bloom Freesia (Edelweiss)> XSEED Games
- The Sacred Tears TRUE (AlphaNuts) > WhiteCute
- TyranoBuilder Visual Novel Studio (STRIKEWORKS) > STRIKEWORKS[strikeworks.jp]
- Yatagarasu Attack on Cataclysm (PDW HOTAPEN) > PDW HOTAPEN / Circle Edge Corp.

Localized versions of the following titles will be DELISTED* from ALL distributors (including Steam) following the Steam summer sale:

- Cherry Tree High Comedy Club (773)
- Cherry Tree High I! My! Girls! (773)

* So pick up copies while you can!!

On behalf of the past and present members of the Nyu Media team, THANK YOU to all the AWESOME players, press, partners, and others for your support over the years and for making this possible. Please continue to support these games, devs, and the Japanese indie game scene!

Sincerely,

Seon King
Founder & Managing Director,

I really wished there was an announcement drop, would've probably picked up some titles but a lot of stuff have already been delisted...All in all, Thank You for carving this path into 2020 and what it is today!

@etch We offered to introduce a publisher, but it seems that the dev isn't interested.

Is no one willing to to save the licenses for the 773 games?

(sorry for my bad english) Im really sad with that announcement. I want to share how you guys helped me without even knowing it. Back in 2013 , i got this game called "Eryi's Action", it was a 'Desura' game. And i started recording my gameplay on youtube of this game, and it was a blast, i had so much fun playing it, and because of the videos i made a friend who watched all episodes. Sadly we started to talk less and less, but still maintain some words with each other. And on 2019 i lost my job, and them the pandemic started, i can't find a job and my life was going straight down, suddenly in the middle os 2020 this friend who watched my videos come to talk to me on steam, talking about he need someone to work with him, he invited me to work with him. Today im still working with him and im very happy.
It's so strange to think about that, this game saved my life, i don't even know what i would be doing now without this job today.
Thank you Nyu Media from the bottom of my heart.:yum:

That's such a shame. But thank you guys so much for bringing these titles over here! You paved the way for so many indie devs to get their games out to a wider audience. Take care, and thanks again for everything! :raburabu:
