• First of all, please introduce yourself. What is your favorite game?

Mr. One Haz Me (below) A game studio METRONOMIK (Metronomic) based in Malaysia, CEO of METRONOMIK (Metronomic), and is a WAN HAZMER (One Hazme), which is also a game director of this work. Call me.

Metronomik lived in Japan for about 10 years, until the last year to launch in December 2017. About 8 years ago, Final Fantasy XV Game Designer, Final Fantasy XV Read Game Designer (Lead of Team Leading Mainly and Based Planning, etc.) and Spin-off work Monster of the Deep : Final Fantasy XV also worked for a lead game designer. Also, Metronomik s joint management, creative director of this work, and my cousin brother Daim Dziauddin (Daim Zia Wadin) is Street Fighter 5 concept artist and Final fantasy XIV:

Since I was working in the same Japanese game industry, such as an animator of the cut scene of Gurren s lester, two of us were indebted for many years in the Japanese game industry.

So it is a very honored to be introduced in Japanese game media. Thank you for your wonderful opportunity.

I can not choose the most favorite game, so say by genre...

Final Fantasy 7 : A Wonderful World View

Eternal Ar Cadia : The adventure romance is full

Rhythm Heaven : Playful

Space Channel 5 : Fun Rhythm Play in Pointed World Watch

Pop n Music Series: Cute and Heavy Gap

Chunasism : There is a feeling of exhilarating, but it is easy to play but there is a challenge

-Why did you start developing this work?

I love the sound game (rhythm game), but I would like to go to the game center with colleagues and friends on the weekend and to invite the sound games together, and just Well, I was refused. Sometimes I have someone who had a similar experience.

But even if you are not good at sound games or not so much, I think that people who don t like music themselves are rare. When the songs you know and the song you know will flow, I think that you will take a rhythm on your body. In addition, there is a rule for game design, but I felt that the music was also the same as having fun without understanding the rules. The original version of this work ( No Straight Roads ( No Straight Roads, whether the music you like is a game play other than the sound game and about once every two weeks from around 2012. I was an idea that was a prototype of another game.

And with regard to the time of time to actually start development using the ideas of the game, FFXV was released a few years ago, and the development of FFXV was completed in Tabata who was the director at that time. If this experience is also to Malaysian game industry, I returned to Malaysia and making a game company.

Malaysia was the only one in Southeast Asia, so the government has been keenly supported by the government and the game industry, and the excellent people involved in the game industry were increasing little by little.

However, in the Malaysian game industry, the outsourcing company is mostly accounted for, and the young artist increases, there are few people who can produce directions and produced, so it is almost absence that there are almost no company that makes the original IP bottom.

Very exciting and learned days in Skueni were very attractive, but I would like to create a game with talented people, who wants to support the growth of Malaysia s game industry, and return a game with talented people, return home I decided to launch the studio. By the way, 80% of the members are new graduates or in the game industry, but with people who are enthusiastic for game production, 20% of the remaining are composed of members of AAA game development experienced by I and DAIM.

• Please tell me the characteristics of this work.

Haz Features are gameplays that combine music and actions. All enemies and the environment are designed to work with music, so enemies are also attacking on rhythms. However, the player does not have to be rhythm, so it moves freely, so there is no pressure to match the rhythm like a sound game. At first, if you listen carefully while avoiding it, you can defeat it in no time if you remember the enemy s attack pattern with your ear. By the way, since the spid runner in this work, including the original version, we are practiced to remember this ear, so I will defeat the rhythm well. This is better to play directly in terms of words, so I would like to play in the STEAM version of this work!

When the normal mode is cleared, a difficult mode is opened, and a sound game feel comes out, such as the attack that can be Paris, so it will attack the sound game and the feeling that it was scached If you want to enjoy it, I would like to open and enjoy the more difficult mode.

And the characteristics that can not be removed are Japanese dubbed and subtitles with power. Despite the debut creation of Malaysia s indie game studio, Japanese dubbing and subtitles were prepared at the same timing as the release, as I first welcome, I and DAIM are very indebted to the game industry in Japan. And, as soon as I was a little younger than a little, I was able to play with a very different Japanese game, and I realized I wanted to put absolute Japanese dubbing and subtitles at the same time as releases.

The main character Mayday (Mayday) and Zuke (Zuki) were very lucky that you could have a voice of Sakura Tomo and Mr. Jun Fukuyama. In addition, with the greatness of the acting power of Japanese voice actors, the characters of this work increased more. I would like to express my gratitude to the Sound Aims, who was very much indebted to all of Japanese dubbing and subtitles.

Although it is one of the features recorded only in this encore edition, I would like to show you a feeling of gratitude to launching the original version and met fans around the world in the past year, and fan-art participatory planning Conducted in advance. Despite the short period of time, more than 500 fan arts gather and have been decorated into the vinyl city that is the stage of the game. And, the collected fan art can be attached to the guitar case that appears as a UI, so you can also view the work of your favorite artist. If you like the city search, please look for everything and try all the fan art!

• What kind of person do this work do you want to play?

Since it is a hat music center action game, people who love the action and those who like music are also fun. Even when struggling to get used to a new sense of gameplay with music and actions, even when you struggle without getting used to it, we added a new item called invincible sticker in this work, so clear the game without being damaged and stories You can also enjoy it to the end and practice many times.

And I would like to play with good music and game music. This work has been able to work with many composers and remixes in the composer that has heard that the sound game is like. The main composer consists of a team that has been familiar with the game music that has been familiar with the game music that has been working with Final Fantasy XV Metal Gear Solid V Sonic Mania, and Falk Au Yeong of Director, James Landino, Andy Tunstall, Funk Fiction participates as a main composer.

Besides, we cooperate with musicians around the world, including Japan. Brazilian Drummer Bruno Valverd (Angra), Influener Pianist Tony Ann, Orchestra Conductor Friends (Video Game Orchestra), MIDORI (Girls Metal Band Lovebites guitarist), Kurosawa Dishke, Aoki Society, EDM, EDM musician of Roborob, Tokyo Machine, Michael Staple, Ian Tsuchiura (Hyper Potions), One Eye Closed of Japan s four-piece indie rock band, vocalist of Nikki Simmons, American musician Garrett Williamson, of the French HIPHOP musicians Clyde Rabatel and Malaysia, Jazz guitarist Az Samad. You can listen to Bandcamp and SPOTIFY, YouTube, etc., so I would like to enjoy the music of Norinori and the game play that the music fused.

After that, I often heard the voice of those who played this year, Story and Character Good. All characters that appear have a sense of justice, and they are music for each reason. Music has various genres like locks and EDMs that come out in this work, and there are many people s values. In order to express this different value, a story that matches the story, it finished not only the story, but also to be conveyed through the game play and visual.

Personally, I think that there is a story that seems to be a person or an entertainer, such as an artist or an entertainer, but I think it is a story that is particularly resounding to those who still think that they are still stuck. If you have a heartwarming, I would be glad if you could experience the story of this work until the end and tell me how you felt.

• Is there a work affected by this work?

There are a lot of haz. From the person who played the game, Space Channel 5 and Norimore Heroes and Jett Set Radio, but as you guess all these It is also affected by the game.

Since I and DAIM strongly love the game of dream cast and playstation 1 and 2, this work is also an omnip on the game of that generation.

Other than the game, the movie Scott Pilgrim vs. Evil Motoya Corps and Wes Anderson s director works, anime, and anime, Tengen Toppain Glen Lagan was affected.

• Did you have an impact on development by new coronavirus?

There was a hat! Well, still continuously influenced.... Malaysia has become close to rock down from last March, so I work with remote work completely or more than one and a half years.

Last year, since it became a remote work in the most important time to finish the original version of this work, there were a lot of happenings. Is the most frequent happening, PC falls due to lightning strike,...? Malaysia is once a day, and a slight thunderstorm comes in moment once a day, so if the rain cloud approaches, it is often possible to fly with the message because it is Launching, so PC, so I can drop it for a while. After that, when I got the original version rating CERO, CERO was just stopped for the timing and the timing when the CERO was stopped due to the influence of corona, and it became a face.

• Is it okay to deliver and monetize this work?

Has Mochiso is okay! If you can enjoy the view of the world of this work, delivery and secondary creation are also welcome!

• Lastly, please give a message to the Japanese reader.

As I said, I m also focusing on Japanese dubbing and subtitles, so I would like to play with Japanese game fans who have never been challenged by a Western game. If you are a favorite person or creative activity, I think there will surely be the music and stories of this work.

Limited budget, 80% of the game industry in the game industry, and in the middle of Corona s Maintaining the game to remotely finish the game, whatever the original game from Malaysia is in Japan, Japan I would like to experience it by all means.

There are also Twitter accounts in Japanese, so I m glad to feel free to send me an impression!

--thank you very much.
