Giga (戯画) is a Japan ese adult visual novel producing studio under TGL Planning. Giga produces both regular visual novels driven by text and graphics as well as games that feature mecha with action-oriented gameplay elements. One of its development teams, Baldrhead, has been in charge of several of these action-oriented visual novels. Aside from their visual novels, they are known for creating the Variable Geo fighting game series for PC9800, which was later ported to TurboGrafx-CD, PC, Super Famicom, Sega Saturn and PlayStation.
Some of Giga's games have had consumer port releases onto consoles with the sexual content removed. For example, Kono Aozora ni Yakusoku o was ported to the PlayStation 2 in 2007[1][2] and the PlayStation Portable in 2009.[3][4][5] Baldr Force was ported to the Dreamcast and PlayStation 2 and Baldr Bullet "Revellion" was ported to the PlayStation 2.
Kono Aozora ni Yakusoku o was very well received and was awarded the Bishōjo Game Award gold prize in the scenario, theme song, romance, and user approval categories in addition to the grand prize in 2006.[6] Baldr Sky Dive1 "Lost Memories" was awarded the Moe Game Award silver prize in the theme song category in 2009.[7]
