In a tweet thread today, programmer of Sonic the Hedgehog, Yuji Naka, shared that a court case recently concluded where he sued Square Enix, publisher of Balan Wonderworld, after they removed him as director just six months before the launch of the game.
In a Twitter thread, written entirely in Japanese, Naka shares multiple issues he had while working with Square Enix and developing Balan Wonderworld. These include conflict over publishing the original music compositions, bugs present during development, and the final state of the game, which Naka describes as being in an “unfinished state.” Thanks to Twitter user Cheesemeister3k for a translation of Yuji Naka’s thread.
