  • The Making of Gravity Cat

    Remember that fantastic promo video for Gravity Rush 2 (Gravity Daze 2) I mentioned the other day? Sony has now shared a fun “behind the scenes” video, that reveals just how far they went to achieve that rotating room sequence. The video includes English subtitles.

    Here’s a beautiful little short (wish it was longer) about visiting manga creator Takao Yaguchi (Tsurikichi Sanpei) in his hometown of Yokote, in Akita prefecture. It was in part produced by Anne Ferrero (Branching Paths, Toco Toco TV).
