Overview edit · view history
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 4 March 2004.
