| '''''Harvest Moon''''' is a series of farm simulation games by Natsume. Prior to 2014, the "''Harvest Moon''" name was used as the Western title for Marvelous's ''Bokujō Monogatari'' series, which was localized in Western territories by Natsume. Although Xseed Games would later acquire the international distribution rights of the series, the "''Harvest Moon''" name remained under Natsume's ownership and was spun-off into its own separate series. As a result, the Western title for ''Bokujō Monogatari'' was changed to "''Story of Seasons''".

| '''''OneShot''''' ({{ja|ワンショット|Wanshotto}}, ''OneShot'') is a puzzle and adventure indie game developed by Future Cat and published by Degica in 2014, and remade in 2016. Officially described as a game where "the world knows you exist", both its gameplay and plot involve metafictional elements. Many puzzles involve interacting with the operating system outside of the game application. Narratively, the player is a separate character from the protagonist Niko; both arrive in an unfamiliar world which has been deprived of its sunlight, and eventually aim to restore it by replacing its sun, a light bulb, at the top of a tower.

| '''''Touhou Project''''' ({{ja|東方Project|Tōhō Purojekuto}}, ''Touhou Project'') is a series of bullet hell shoot 'em up games created nearly singlehandedly by a single creator, ZUN. The series primarily focuses on Reimu Hakurei, the miko of Hakurei Shrine who is often tasked with resolving supernatural incidents caused in and around the sealed land called Gensokyo. It is notably popular as a source of ''dōjin'' content, with the series spawning a vast body of fan-made works; the long-running series can reasonably be considered one of the most popular among Japanese-developed indie games.
