Meanwhile, one of the game’s designers, Yoshiro Kimura, would produce other cult classic titles, such as Chulip, Little King’s Story, and the infamous Rule of Rose, before joining Suda51’s Grasshopper Manufacturer and eventually leaving it to create Onion Games, the studio responsible for finally localizing Moon all these years later. After directing Moon: Remix RPG Adventure, Nishi would go on to work on Chibi Robo and Captain Rainbow at Skip Ltd. The game was directed by Kenichi Nishi who, while working for SquareSoft in the 90s, worked on the likes of Chrono Trigger and Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. In a somewhat ironic turn of events, it’s due to feelings like this that I (perhaps selfishly) can’t imagine Love-de-Lic’s PlayStation title Moon: Remix RPG Adventure finally receiving a 23-year overdue English localization at any better time.įor the uninitiated, Moon: Remix RPG Adventure is an anti-RPG game released by Love-de-Lic in 1997 for the original PlayStation.
Unfortunately, given the current year, video games and escapism are needed more than ever right now, so being understandably burnt out on gaming can have the downside of having a negative impact on one’s mental health. It’s understandable if some are finding that it’s easy to get burnt out on gaming after the many months that players have found themselves stuck at home forcing their way through their backlog. As the current console generation draws to a close, it and the COVID-19 pandemic continue to shake up not only the gaming industry but the entire planet.
