Trivia & Facts

The project was created by Takuma Endo, who had long wanted to produce video game titles and founded Acquire in 1994 with a group of friends.

The PlayStation console was released that same year, and while Endo was eager to develop for it and approached Sony as an individual, he was turned down as Sony was only working with development studios.

Acquire took part in a "Digital Entertainment Program" audition organized by Sony Music Entertainment Japan to find up-and-coming development studios.

Production proper on the game began in 1996, though Endo was concerned due to the rarity of games which allowed for free exploration of a 3D space.

The producer was Sony Music Entertainment Japan's Masami Yamamoto, the game being his debut as a producer.

A Nintendo 64 version was considered, but Acquire ultimately decided to focus on one platform for the best quality.
