Genuinely, this completely rules
-Recently, the game has been going viral on X for its beautiful undressing animations. I’ve even read in one of your previous interviews that the development team practiced stripping themselves as reference for the undressing animations. What was the process behind making the animations actually like?

Matsui:

I’d love to know how far that story has spread. It’s true.

First, we write a plot for each undressing scene, then draw storyboards, exactly as the original team did. Then the real work begins, because the animation is essentially all keyed by hand. A designer moves the clothing’s 3D model, frame by frame, manually. It really is pretty much like the claymation method I mentioned.

We did try automating it with physics simulation first, but it was a total failure. The cloth moved in a physically correct way, but had absolutely no allure. We learned a profound lesson: accuracy and sensuality are two unrelated properties. In the end, we accepted that humans would have to do all of it.

Then VR adds its own weight. In a normal game, if something becomes awkward, you can cut away or swap models between scenes. In VR, the player can look from any angle at any time, so none of those tricks are available. The same model has to undress convincingly no matter where you’re standing. When I described this to a designer at another studio, he said, “I would never do that.” I’ve chosen to take it as a compliment.And then, yes, the part you’ve read about. The undressing motions themselves use motion capture, but the deeper problem was that nobody actually knew the correct rhythm and order in which a person takes off clothes. So, the directors gathered and undressed themselves as reference. “That zipper is coming down too fast.” “She’d pause once before slipping her shoulder out.” These were serious, sober discussions. For compliance reasons, the Super Real Mahjong Venus Returns team works in a walled-off section of our office – and that was the moment those walls truly earned their keep.

While everyone's looking at my beautiful photoshop work, it feels like a good time to repost the store. I also need to add a bunch of stuff, I just haven't had the time!

While we've been hard at work on Project Lexa, we've also been trying to answer a very important question: what's the final name of this game going to be? Well, now we have an answer — Project Lexa is now just Lexa! ward-games.com/post/project...

I should probably let go of this very cool Super Famicom storage system rather than just put it in storage... but it's so cool. :( You can even have it hooked up while it's closed.

I recently bought this mug and I will say that my life does feel better for it.
A stock photo of the IKEA BATIKBOTIA Mug, yellow. The yellow feels much richer in real life than in the photo, and the inside is fully yellow. It is warm and lovely.

They should release fully realtime films in Fortnite and you should be allowed to replace all the actors with the various skins you've purchased and replace the soundtrack with your jam tracks.

I have an incredible front row ticket to The Besties: Live on Broadway, and I cannot make it to this show. If you are a fellow lifelong listener of The Besties and you would like this seat, let me know. The show is on Friday October 9th at Town Hall in New York, NY. I wish I could be there.

I just finished an anime series about reluctant ladies in love and I was so shocked and excited for them to organically realize that polyamory was the solution to this situation. (Withholding the title as to not spoil, as it is relatively recent)

It's fun to think of how to rewrite a beloved story by making part of it no longer canon and filling out the blanks all over again. Example: Metal Gear, but Snake Eater isn't canon. What do you do instead to create Big Boss?
