He was basically created as a expositional device to explain about the items. Kimura: Please don't take him too seriously. Kudo: There's antenna under the wings on his head. Nishi: He gives off the air of a pseudo-intellectual, a Charlie Hama-ish kansai guy. It's like, dude… you're not fooling anyone, you're made of bread! -What kind of person is Yoshida? Kimura: What I love about Baker is how anyone can plainly see that he's made of bread, but he desperately tries to hide that. Now they always go drinking on different days.īy the way, rumor is that Baker used to open his bakery on Solarday, but Wanda chided him saying "The bread you sell on Solarday smells like booze!", and since then he's kept the shop closed on that day. However, Bibly kept pressuring Baker to get married, and they had a big fight and stopped hanging out. Nishi: This is touched on in the game, but a long time ago Baker and Bilby were drinking buddies. Kurashima: He really does have those visions! -Why are Baker and Bilby fighting? I depicted them in moon the exact same way they appear in my dreams. Kimura: To me, they're beneficial insects. They look white on screen, but they really have marbled black and white coloring. They like humid, moist places, and their bodies are sticky to the touch. Nishi: The kakunte are actually parasites of mushrooms they attach themselves under the mushroom's cap and live there. That was his first live performance too!Ī signal monkey makes good. And yes, the monkey playing the piano there at Clis' first live show is that very same monkey. Nishi: When you first encounter the gamelan-playing signal monkeys at the event on Bari Bari island, there's an empty seat there, and that signal monkey actually broke free from his chains and left the island. Kimura: I hate the Chancellor! -Where is the missing Signal Monkey? Kurashima: I guess you could say he's the sole "bad guy" in the game. Kimura: In Hager's lab, there's some books lying there which are written by Cocker Hager, but no one knows that he and Stein are the same person. Kurashima: Wasn't it one of the Kakunte tribe in there…? There's also that secret "Hager File" on his desk, which shows a transparent schematic of his head, and that's another hint that Dr. You probably noticed the sewn up mark on the back of his head? That is actually because another person, "Cocker Hager", exists in that huge head of his, and he is controlling Stein. Stein Hager actually harbors a much larger secret. Nishi: The King describes Hager as "a man with an encyclopedia stuffed in his head", but Dr. Kurashima: Uh, isn't that another game! -Who is Dr. Kudo: That war, by the way, was the War of the Lions. Kimura: Hah, but there's no way players would be able to see it! But really, in the beginning all we had was "a grandma and her grandson", and we never thought that far, about who his parents were. Kurashima: Did you notice, Birdman has a scar from a gunshot wound on his side there? By the way, Birdman fought with them in the war, and his parents died heroically shielding Birdman from gunfire. Nishi: His parents are never mentioned in the game, but in the backstory his mother and father were soldiers, and they died in a war soon after he was born. What happened to the grandson's parents? Kimura: Yeah, but if she was only pretending to be blind, it kind of makes her a bad grandma. Kurashima: In the beginning of the development, we also thought of having it where the Gramby actually could see, and she's fully aware of what happened to her grandson, but she pretends to be blind so the protagonist will stay with her. Nishi: It could also be called the doorway into the heart of this boy who loves video games. that's the feeling we were trying to convey. People who couldn't open that door have fallen into a kind of trap. Kimura: Towards the end there's a scene where the boy is being beckoned to open the "door of light", which is a gateway that connects the fictional world and the real world. Kurashima: Great, now you've just spilled the beans! The Moon staff, clockwise from top left: Yoshiro Kimura, Akira Ueda, Taro Kudo, Kenichi Nishino, and Kazuyuki Kurashima. Kudo: It doesn't seem like any of the characters realize that the Crypchip at the ending was actually bought in Akihabara, though. Kimura: Well, the only people who have a vague notion that they are fictional characters are Dr. What was in that… -What is the true nature of Moon World? Kimura: In the beginning of the development we wrote a proper "chronology" of sorts for Moon World. Kurashima: I've completely forgotten what we wrote about that. Kimura: That year there were torrential rains, hailstorms, and many other terrible disasters… probably. What happened when the moon lost its light? Mainly worked on the background graphics.
