This interview with former Neverland developer Junichi Kashiwagi explores the inspirations of Chaos Seed, a little-known but critically acclaimed action/rpg/simulation genre hybrid from 1996. Kashiwagi (who today works for game developer Pyramid) goes into good detail about the mechanics and story of Chaos Seed, while the interviewer makes the case for Chaos Seed as a hidden gem that was truly ahead-of-its-time.
