Doki Denki SA
Overview
Heliovisions Productions was originally a French, Lyon-based company working in the domain of video (dubbing, special effects, editing). Around 1996, a games division was created to work on PC games, when former
Infogrames programmers such as
Denis Dufour and
Vincent Terraillon joined the company.
In the beginning of 1997, the team was expanded to work on PlayStation games when former
Adeline Software programmers
Olivier Lhermite and
Mickaël Pointier joined.
In mid 1998, the team expanded to include Dreamcast games as well. Along with the addition, the video game division was renamed
Helio Game. The name
Heliozo also appears to has been used. In September 2000 the studio name was settled as
Doki Denki Studio. Eventually Doki Denki consisted of two divisions: game development and animation. That way, additional work was also provided for other games, such as
Kya: Dark Lineage (2003).
In February 2003 the company acquired the French development studio
Delphine. Work was started on
Moto Racer Traffic, the fourth installment in the
Moto Racer series by Delphine, for Windows and PlayStation 2, but eventually it was not released as Doki Denki was declared bankrupt on 4th March 2004.
The six released games by the studio are:
Also Known As

- Heliovisions Productions (from 1996 to 1998)
