Hello hello hello, hope you are all doing well. This is Christophe Galati, the developer of Save me Mr Tako!, and today I’d like to tell you more about the Game Boy influences, what inspired me, how I used the limitations, and the challenge it provided to maintain the balance between a traditional and modern gaming experience.
Growing up, I had a big brother who collected games, so even though I was born in 1994, I was still able to play many retro games. The Game Boy Color was the first system I personally owned. I always loved the aesthetic, and when I heard that the Game Boy’s 25th anniversary was approaching, it resonated as a call for me…it was time to start a project. I took a little piece of every game I loved from that era to make the original prototype for Tako-San, which I published on September 29, the original release date of the Game Boy in Europe.
