Jet Set Radio (initially released in The United States and Canada as Jet Work Radio) is a 2000 action video game established by Smilebit and also released by Sega for the Dreamcast. The gamer manages a member of a youth gang, the GGs, as they make use of inline skates to traverse Tokyo, splashing graffiti as well as averting authorities. Development was headed by director Masayoshi Kikuchi, with art by Ryuta Ueda. Impact was drawn from late 1990s Japanese prominent culture such as the rhythm video game PaRappa the Rap artist, and also the anti-establishment themes in the film Fight Club. The environments were based upon Tokyo shopping districts in Shibuya and also Shinjuku, with graffiti developed by artists consisting of Eric Haze. It was the initial video game to make use of a cel-shaded art design, developed in response to the group's disappointment in the direction of Sega games generally appearing like anime or manga. Jet Set Radio received honor for its graphics, soundtrack, as well as gameplay. It won numerous honors and was chosen for lots of others. A Game Boy Advance variation, established by Vicarious Visions, was released in 2003, together with variations for Japanese smart phones. In 2012, Jet Set Radio was digitally re-released for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 as well as iphone, adhered to by launches for Windows, PlayStation Vita and Android. A follow up, Jet Set Radio Future, was launched for the Xbox in 2002.
Returns are not so common in the Japanese industry, but that of Ryuta Ueda could unleash some passions among the Nostalgics of Sega. After nine years at Yahoo Japan, the artistic director and director is again an employee of Sega, which he had separated in the spring of 2014.
The news circulates only recently if Ryuta Ueda made this announcement early May on his Facebook profile. I decided to resign from Yahoo Japan and find my old company, Sega. I am very grateful to all the people I met and all the lessons I learned through my various projects at Yahoo. At Counting now, I will focus again on the design of games. I feel not only the excitement of the creator but I also smile a little about seeing old friends and meeting new people. I hope To be able to demonstrate the experiences I have acquired , he wrote.
From the experience, Ryuta Ueda has already not bad, he who had already spent 18 years at Sega. His career begins as an artist on the franchise Panzer Dragoon between 1996 and 2000, then as artistic director and artist of the characters of Jet Set Radio and Jet Set Radio Future . Two years later, we find it as a director on another new license named Yakuza . Ryuta Ueda will realize the first two episodes of this series that has since made a sacred end of the way without it. Ironically, his return to Sega intervenes when we announce the departure of Toshihiri Nagoshi, a historic producer of the franchise, at Netease Games. More incidentally, Ryuta ueda is also credited as director on the game Kinect Rise of Nightmares and as artistic director on the mobile game Demon Tribe .
The Franchise Panzer Dragoon has recently returned to the news through the Remake of Forever Entertainment, while Jet Set Radio must be content with the appearance of the character of Beat in Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz . Rest the Independent Studio Team Reptile and its Bomb Rush CyberPunk which is largely inspired by the game Dreamcast and its suite out on Xbox.
