Legendary Soundtrack – Celebrated composer Nobuo Uematsu, known for his work on the Final Fantasy series and games such as Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon, created a soundtrack to compliment the memorable and magical world of Fantasian from catchy battle tunes to heart-pumping dungeon pieces, and moving character themes.įantasian serves as a vehicle to bring these amazing works of art into the digital space via Apple Arcade.Novel Storytelling – To tell an epic story, a ‘novel’ approach was used in the form of a “Memory” system where players encounter and collect various memories, journal entries, and notes presented as miniature in-game novels to flesh out the story, realms, and characters of Fantasian.These bite-sized novels have unique artwork, music, and sound effects to offer players a truly immersive experience.✿antasian’s dioramas are first photographed from about 200~300 different angles. I have not played it myself, but I do know about it. I think it’s a beautifully made pixel-art game.įantasian’s dioramas are first photographed from about 200~300 different angles. Then, those photographs are processed through a pipeline commonly used to create 3D models of entire cities, which is how we are able to import the diorama’s 3D data into the game engine. Meanwhile, we bring the dioramas to a photo studio, where the sets are well-lit to be photographed. The studio photographs of the dioramas are then projection mapped to the 3D models. This pipeline produces visuals that make the players feel like they’re actually walking through the dioramas, much more so than if we had simply used the photographs as textures on the 3D models. Likewise, because we have the 3D data, we are able to accurately define collisions in-game as well as add post-processing effects. »That goes on until about 7pm, which is when I have dinner and open a bottle of wine.

If it’s really beautiful, I’ll photograph the sky for a while. Then, I’ll make some coffee and head for my desk, at which point it’s almost midnight in Japan, so I can sneak in a few messages in real-time with the team in Japan. Now I’m ready to dive into my own work.Īround 3pm my time, it’s 10am in Japan, so people begin to show up in the office. That goes on until about 7pm, which is when I have dinner and open a bottle of wine. There are few things I enjoy more than this moment in the day.Īfter dinner, I might watch a movie and finally sleep around 11pm. I met Uematsu-san as an incredibly nice person back in 2011. But he was really calm which helped a lot. He has so much fun with music even after all these years.
