Katamari Creator Pitches Idea For New Shooter
Keita Takahashi, the mind behind Katamari Damacy and Noby Noby Boy, has been throwing around quite a few creative project ideas lately. Earlier this week we discovered that Takahashi is working on a playground design for Nottingham City, and now the designer has an idea for “a fun and unique FPS.”
“...I had this idea for an FPS where the player’s character grows in size, gets bigger and bigger as the game progresses. But as you get bigger some weapons are too small to use, so you have to improvise; maybe throw airplanes at the enemies. That sort of stuff,” Takahashi told Develop.
Will the King of All Cosmos start packing heat? If this project ever comes to fruition, we can only imagine it will be quirky and expect nothing less.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
