Star Fox 64 is the game of my life. It was a resume, but by using many ideas that we could not implement in the original, we were able to expand the scope of the game.

In Star Fox 64, the characters communicate via radio, so the low sound quality does not detract from the atmosphere of the game. Games with elaborate cutscenes have become the new norm on the PlayStation, but as we implement more cinematic features, we eventually want to focus on the interactive process. The story will change depending on the player’s score, and the world will be more alive by allowing the characters to talk to each other. We wanted a game where you could feel like you were watching a movie while enjoying the interactivity.
