"TRY Corporation" is the name of the company credited with making the game.

Trademark info: http://www.trademarkia.com/planet-probe-73509055.html

Unfortunately, there's no game manufacturer on the title screen. The MAMEdevs who worked on the driver (mainly Haze) guessed that it might be the same developers behind Crux / Orca / Kyugo games based on hiscore table, Gyrodine pinout, clocks etc.

More discussion on TRY Corporation re: Planet Probe (which mostly distills down to the trademark database entry):

The following magazine also linked "TRY" and "Planet Probe" (プラネット・プローブ):

A scan of the pages in which it's mentioned would be great.

Also, according to ShimaPong (in the comments at Haze's blog: https://mamedev.emulab.it/haze/2012/11/06/italy-gets-a-planet-probe-part-1/), according to the VGL (Ultimate Video Game List) published by A.M.P. Group, this game is listed on "Unreleased" game page and the manufacturer is listed as "TRY".
