Going through games HAL Laboratory did for VIC-20/MAX Machine/C64. I think they did several games they're not credited with anywhere. A little harder to tell with VIC-20 games because they lack the distinctive font.
This has nothing to with Japan or HAL, but this list mentions Threshold Research, the "authors of 'QIX'." Never heard that name before, but it is referenced in the high score tables of Colony 7 and The Electric Yo-Yo. https://archive.org/details/commodoreauthorizedprogrammerlist/mode/2up …

From VIC! Vol. 5, a magazine by Commodore Japan: Avalanche listed among the new titles coming to the new VIC-1001. I assume this is what came out as The Sky is Falling. So I guess HAL Laboratory did The Sky is Falling?pic.twitter.com/91zxx7ZqW9
