Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom dev on approach to loading screens, wanted players to feel ‘happiness’ when cooking
Posted on 4 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
In a recruitment post on Nintendo’s website, developer Daigo Shimizu spoke about what it was like working on the UI for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the and Tears of the Kingdom.
Shimizu spoke about how starting with Breath of the Wild, the team opted for “a more streamlined approach.” That means removing clutter and focusing on what was truly necessary. If you’ve played either Nintendo Switch title, you may have noticed that there isn’t a ton happening on screen aside from the actual game world.
The idea of practicality and ‘happiness’ was something brought up for the loading screens. Breath of the Wild featured tips, but Tears of the Kingdom showed the map to get players excited about exploration. Along the same lines, the theme of ‘happiness’ was used for cooking and specifically the Recipe Book in Tears of the Kingdom as the team felt “people feel happy by looking at restaurant menus or pictures of food”.
