Taken from Shinobi THE WIDE Illustration Archives, this long interview with producer Masahiro Kumono and director Toru Shimizu of former Sega satellite studio Overworks covers the making of Shinobi for PlayStation 2, with their discussion touching upon protagonist Hotsuma's striking design, moving to 3D, difficulty preferences around the world, the pursuit of pure action gameplay and much more.
Comments
Yeah, that is really too bad. I loved the things he had to say in this interview about action gameplay design.
