Who made Stupid Never Dies
GPTRACK50 develops Stupid Never Dies in a co-publishing partnership with SEGA. Its company page says NetEase Games wholly funds the studio. Hiroyuki Kobayashi is president and producer; Eiichiro Sasaki is the game director.
Studio ownership comes from the company page. Producer and director roles are distinguished in the official DEEP BITE announcements, rather than inferred from studio leadership.
Studio and credits that are public
GPTRACK50’s company page gives October 1, 2022 as its founding date and lists Osaka as its location. SEGA’s release announcement describes the worldwide co-publishing agreement. Official DEEP BITE posts identify Kobayashi as producer and Sasaki as director. Team size, a complete credits roster, and a precise development duration are not verified here.
This is not a Grasshopper Manufacture game and not a Goichi Suda game. Let It Die is the title people mix in. It shipped in 2016 from a different studio.
