Chuanpu Technology (also went under the English name of Jam Port) was a developer of Mega Drive games, mainly RPGs.

Chuanpu appears to have been somehow connected to Gamtec, as the two companies often shared staff members, fonts (although these were taken from the DOS program PCPaint) and sometimes the Wonderboy III: Monster Lair sound engine. Chuanpu closed in 1996 due to the decline of 16-bit consoles and the rise of 32-bit. However, many former staff members remained in the games industry and are credited in games such as Vast Fame's.

Many Chuanpu games were published in China by Li Cheng; this company would later go on to publish certain Vast Fame games in the country.
