Added 2021-10-27 14:20:26 +0000 UTChttps://shmuplations.com/puyopuyotsu/
Taken from Studio Bent’s All About Puyo Puyo Tsu book, this long interview saw director Kengo Morita, assistant programmer Yasutoshi Akiyama and designers Sonchou Sawa and Aya Shimazaki discussing the creation of Puyo Puyo Tsu, the second arcade entry in Compile’s wildly popular and influential falling-block puzzle game series.
Conducted during the early stages of development on the Saturn port, their discussion covers a plethora of topics including the sequel’s many iterative additions, the selection of the game’s wide cast of characters, the series’ reception overseas, the voice acting and much more (including repeated apologies for the swathes of scrapped content that never made it to the initial versions of the game, much of which was reinstated for the Saturn version and subsequent ports.
