It’s an obvious fact, but games are made by humans. And, of course, they reflect the intentions, habits, and experiences of the creators. If you follow the same developer’s biography closely, you’ll likely find some essence of their previous work. So this time, we’ll be introducing some surprising “careers” of game developers, from masterpieces to indies. We will provide you with the knowledge of hardcore gamers that “the person who made that game also made this kind of game.”

●Is the evolution of ATB battle from “Monster Hunter: World”? Battle designer for “Final Fantasy 7 Remake” and “Rebirth”

“Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth” is the second remake of “Final Fantasy 7,” which has received record acclaim. The battle director Hiroki Endo is credited with both of the previous games, Final Fantasy 7 Remake. In a comment posted on the official website for FF7 His Remake, he said, “In my personal experience, I have often made action games.”

So what kind of games has he created so far? When I searched for the same name, an article regarding him being interviewed by the media as a planner for Monster Hunter: World came up.

Judging from his name and the gist of his comments, it seems that he has probably been in charge of battle direction since “FF7 Remake.” When you think regarding it that way, this game’s battle system, which combines commands and 3D action, makes sense.

In a similar case, Ryota Suzuki is the combat director for “Final Fantasy 16,” and he also worked on “Devil May Cry 5” at Capcom. After knowing this, won’t Clive have the same shadow as Dante?

-A development studio that changed direction to the exact opposite style…The developer of “Season ~Letter to the Future~” was creating Battle Royale! ?

“Season: Letter to the Future” is a road movie-style adventure game with plenty of atmosphere of riding a bicycle through the fields. It’s a very peaceful game where you spend time writing diaries and recording sounds in a world that is regarding to end, but did you know that the previous work by the same studio was actually a battle royale game?

This work was produced and sold by Canada’s Scavengers Studio (the name is certainly surprising), but their previous work was a free-to-play Battle Royale game called “Darwin Project.” Unfortunately, development ended four months following the official release, but you can still download and play the game.

I’m surprised at the sudden change in policy from Battle Royale to ADV. What will they try next?

●Lucas Pope, the man who created “Papers, Please” and “The Return of the Obladin”…His new work is on Playdate!

He continues to create unique games such as “Papers, Please,” a game in which you play as an immigration officer for a fictional country, and “Return of the Obra Dinn,” a mystery ADV in which you investigate the cause of death of the crew of a ship returning from a long voyage. The genius Lucas Pope is also a very talented creator.

His new work can be played on a small game machine with a crank called “Playdate.” Its name is “Mars After Midnight”. It’s a game regarding dealing with customers who come to an event at a community center on Mars, and if you just listen to that part, it’s similar to the first game. The stage is still unique.

Lucas Pope is originally from the United States, but currently lives in Saitama Prefecture. Maybe you might secretly pass each other at an indie game event?

That’s all for “The person who made that game is also making a game like this!?” I think it was quite unique to look at the game industry from this perspective. If you have any other opinions that you would like to remember, please let us know in the comments!
