Climax Graphics Inc.,[a] renamed Crazy Games Inc.[b] in 2001, was a Japanese video game developer based in Tokyo. Established in December 1996 by Shinya Nishigaki as an independent "brother company" of Climax Entertainment. The staff were made up of CGI developers who had worked on Climax Entertainment's Dark Savior. Their debut project, the action-adventure Blue Stinger, began production for the Sega Saturn, but on encouragement from Sega it shifted to becoming an early Dreamcast title.
Following Blue Stinger's successful release, Nishigaki led development on the survival horror Illbleed, which ended up releasing shortly before the Dreamcast's discontinuation in 2001 to poor sales and reception. That same year the company changed its name to Crazy Games to distinguish itself from Climax Entertainment. Crazy Games would co-develop the arcade title The Maze of the Kings with Hitmaker before closing in December 2002 due to the uncertain Japanese economy at that time. Nishigaki and his staff moved to Cavia and were working on a new project, but Nishigaki died in 2004 from a heart attack.
