Feelplus Inc. (株式会社フィールプラス Kabushiki gaisha Fiirupurasu) was a Japanese video game developer and a subsidiary of AQ Interactive. The studio was conceived by Microsoft Game Studios specifically to aid Mistwalker in video game development. It was founded by former UPL employees including Tsutomu Fujisawa as {{nihongo|Scarab|スカラベ}} on May 1, 1992. Former employees of Nautilus and Square Enix later joined in. By September 2002, Cavia (later to become AQ Interactive) bought the company. In May 2005, it became a fully owned subsidiary and Scarab changed its name to Feelplus Inc.

In August 2010, Feelplus Inc., Artoon and Cavia were absorbed into AQ Interactive.{{cite web |url=http://www.siliconera.com/2010/08/13/artoon-and-feelplus-also-absorbed-into-aq-interactive/ |title=Artoon And Feelplus Also Absorbed Into AQ Interactive // Siliconera |website=www.siliconera.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100817222707/http://www.siliconera.com/2010/08/13/artoon-and-feelplus-also-absorbed-into-aq-interactive/ |archive-date=2010-08-17}}
