Inti Creates still working on Azure Striker Gunvolt’s western character design
According to Inti Creates CEO Takuya Aizu, the studio is still working on the character design for Azure Striker Gunvolt.
Aizu told Siliconera:
“During the development of Gunvolt, we researched what kind of design would appeal to boys between the ages of 10 and 14—who we assume will be the game’s main purchasers—in North America. As a result, we changed Gunvolt’s design, because braided hair and a bare midriff were unpopular among them. However, these changes are not final. We will continue to do research into the matter.”
Some noticed that some changes had been made to main character Gunvolt in the North American version. Basically, the western design drops his bare midriff and ponytail. It’s not much, but some feel that no changes should be made.
