Dodonpachi – 1997 Developer Interview
Added 2016-03-15 15:02:34 +0000 UTChttp://shmuplations.com/dodonpachi2/
This quick interview with Dodonpachi programmers Tsuneki Ikeda and Satoshi Kouyama is the second part of an interview originally featured in Gamest. The first part is well worth a read if you haven’t; this interview focuses on the surprisingly positive public response to an “extreme” danmaku game like Dodonpachi in arcades. Other topics include the design of the scoring system and the choice to make Hibachi an unusually tiny final boss.
