Fantasy Life and Professor Layton studio Level-5 has informed shareholders today that they have formally dissolved Level-5 Comcept. Level-5 Comecept was a joint subsidiary between Level-5 and well known game developer Keiji Inafune, who was the head of the project. The subsidiary were the core team behind the upcoming Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time though Mr. Inafune left the team in mid-2024. The Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time crew were then placed in the new Osaka office in March and have been flourishing since with Famitsu recently awarding the long-awaited life-sim a stupendous 36/40. Because of all these factors, Level-5 that absolutely no reason to keep the subsidiary open and it has now closed.
“Our company has been dissolved following a decision made at the shareholders’ meeting held on April 30, Reiwa 7 (2025). Therefore, those who have credit with our company should apply within two months from the day following the publication of this notice. If there are no applications made in the aforementioned period, it will be excluded from the settlement.”
Has there been a bigger fraud in the japanese industry than Inafune?
I wouldn’t say fraud, more like under delivered. The fraud title belongs to Ubisoft and Bioware (more will be added soon).
Biggest fraud? Easily Yuji Naka.
Because of the inside trading? Lol
Tomonobu Itagaki?
Maybe not even that douchebag
The person bringing up Ubisoft and Bioware has so much brainrotand clearly doesn’t know why Kenji Inafune is a fraud. The dude is a literal fraud. Convinced a bunch of gamers that he created Mega Man.
Level-5 got indigestion swallowing up Comcept.
I know “Fantasy Life The Girl Who Steals Time” supports local co-op and multiplayer, but is it playable offline solo?
I don’t see why not?
