I have to assume he's counting games for other computers, but Kazuya Nishioka did seem to be coding from at least around the turn of 79/80. in about 2.5 months he shat out 7 new games. He really put the basic in BASIC and the jumping games were shit. Wonder if he did their type-ins?

I did run into Galaxy Search though. A basic vertical shoot-em-up, however it hides parts of the screen in a fog of war (your RADAR range).
It also has a damage system, causing your beam to become a single shot, turning off one engine (doesn't actually slow me down?) or reducing the range of your radar twice. I thought that was pretty neat. It is from 1983 though, so I guess it's nothing special especially in comparison to overseas PCs and most consoles.
This one actually has a page on the old games database of Seesaawiki.jp. Should probably post that in the useful links thread now that one is up, they even made a .gif which runs slightly slower than my emu.
