Katamari Damacy creator leaves Namco-Bandai
THE CREATOR of the lovely Katamari Damacy and Noby Noby Boy, Keita Takahashi, has quit his creative position at Namco-Bandai, Play.tm report.
Takahashi has been interested in other artistic endeavours for some time and has expressed a certain amount of restlessness for his job, even calling Namco-Bandai a “so-so” company to work for.
“I’m actually not thinking about a future in games,” he told OPM earlier this year. “It’s not that I’m not interested in them, but I want to try lots of different things.”
It shows. He’s currently been involved in designing a playground in Nottingham. That’s a bit different, right?
