Harvest Moon creator interested in seeing where the series goes, but doesn’t feel the need to be involved
Yasuhiro Wada is the creator of Harvest Moon (Bokuj? Monogatari / Story of Seasons, separate from Natsume’s recent games), and worked on the series for nearly twenty games. Now though, he’s at his own company Toybox and is working on other projects.
GameSpot spoke with Wada recently, and asked if he’s yearning to return to the series in any way. Simply put: he’s not. While Wada is “curious as to how it’s going to do from here on out”, he doesn’t “feel the need to get involved with the series anymore.”
Wada’s words in full:
“Not. At. All. [Laughs] I see Harvest Moon more as my child now; it’s all grown up. It’s married, it started a family, and it’s doing its own thing now. I’m curious as to how it’s going to do from here on out, but I don’t feel the need to get involved with the series anymore.”
