GDCTV: Rolling the Dice: The Risks and Rewards of Developing Katamari Damacy

Gamasutra is proud to present GDCTV, a new special feature showcasing streaming high-quality video content of some of the notable sessions of this year's Game Developers Conference. For this second session we present Keita Takahashi's "Rolling the Dice:The Risks and Rewards of Developing Katamari Damacy":

"Keita Takahashi made his directorial debut with the quirky sleeper hit Katamari Damacy. The game presents players with a refreshingly unique, genre-defying game design, in which the player rolls game objects into an ever-increasing ball, while working against the clock. In this session, Takahashi-san gives an inside look into how he conceived, developed, and shepherded the game through Namco's corporate system."
