10 Amazing Facts About the Development of Virtua Racing



Quote
8: This title was originally planned around the theme of classic cars, but Formula One racing was very popular internationally at the time, which shaped the end-product to revolve around F1 cars.

9: The game included various in-game background mechanics such as palm trees that dropped their fruit if players collided into them or gates that would open up detours if players went in reverse.

New Crazy Taxi-Inspired Game Announced,
Published by Sega in Asia & Japan


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ry5N2UNZKsc

Quote
It will be interesting to see whether or not Taxi Chaos can truly capture the charm of the game that inspired it (Crazy Taxi).
Sega owns a patent on Crazy Taxi's core gameplay mechanic, so it seems that developer Team6 Studios would have had to receive a blessing from the company before making Taxi Chaos.

Miyamoto says his kids played a lot of SEGA games when they were younger, inspired him to try harder





Quote
Miyamoto said in a recent interview with The New Yorker that they also played a lot of SEGA titles like Out Run and Space Harrier.
Rather than being jealous, he said this inspired him to try harder, “so that they preferred the ones I made.”

The UI & UX of Sonic Racing



Quote
Early ideas and wireframes were first explored on paper and then turned into Adobe XD click-through prototypes.
Those prototypes were helpful during the game development as they were frequently used to showcase features to the team and used as a tool to scope the work involved on each feature.
