Famitsu recently published a couple of interviews with Shu Takumi, the creator of Ace Attorney. In case you missed it, we posted the first part here. We’ve also been working on a translation of the second interview, which was much larger in scope. Due to the length, we’ll be posting it in two parts.
Below, you can read up even further on the creation of the Ace Attorney series. Takumi talks about what the first game’s prototype was like and the team initially thought that development could have been suspended, how Maya and Mia got their roles, and more.

During a postmortem at GDC 2019, Motion Twin game designer Sébastien Bénard shared some information about Dead Cells’ performance. Since launching on Steam Early Access, over one million copies have been sold. Roughly 60% of sales have been on PC, but Switch is no slouch. We’re hearing that Switch was the top-selling console for Dead Cells.
Bénard also mentioned during his session that Dead Cells was kind of like a “last chance project” for Motion Twin. “The company was not in such good shape,” he said.
