Terarin Games is an indie videogame developer and publisher from Japan, created by the lead programmer, Junichi Terayama, known as Terarin55.

Their main focus is creating retro-styled shooting games, but without the “unfairness” of that era[1]. A common theme of their game is that they have a single, but well implemented, mechanic and that they feature an excellent Caravan mode. The main target platforms are Steam and the Nintendo Switch, but many of their games are also available in a visually stripped-down version on Android.

According to interviews[2][3] Junichi Terayama is an information security engineer by day, and develops shooters in his spare time, using the GameMaker engine.
