![]() ![]() In 2009, another company claiming the legacy of Taff was founded, Ntaff. ![]() In November 2005 Ntix was sold to the bio venture company EnviTech 4 (later to be bought once again by Hepahope Korea), but its game development division split from the company and reformed once again as the Neowiz-owned studio Red Duck 5. The company was bought by the online gaming portal provider Neowiz in 2003, and renamed to Ntix Soft in March 2004 3. They also created CGI animations for advertisement purposes. In the game sector, they were most famous for their series of fishing simulations, but Taff System weren't content with creating only games, but in result of Cycle Force programmer Lee Gijeong's interest in 3D simulations also programmed a professional military simulation software that was actually used by the Korean army for a long time 2. The first computer where Taff games were programmed on was borrowed from another friend's mother, and had to be given back whenever she decided she would need it. (In the credits, Moonmin sounds like an alias for a Korean, which would make him the co-director of the game, although that identification is not backed by hard facts.) Because he didn't have any capital to speak of, Jeong mortgaged his TV and VCR to rent a cheap office room a friend had used as an atelier. Finally, he found his destiny in game development, joined SNK as an intern and helped develop Sengoku Denshou. Prior to the establishment of Taff System, founder president Jeong Jaeyeong spent a number of years in Japan, from 1988 to 1992, keeping himself alive with various jobs, from factory work to an employment at Studio Pierrot. ![]()
