The production of "Ghost Scheme."
Directing Ghost Tricks, the official Steam introduction also mentions his creative journey with the Ace Attorney series.
The narrative and prototype of "Ghost Scheme."
When Qiaozhou wrote "The Ghost Scheme," he arranged where and in what order seemingly unrelated character information appeared, ultimately converging toward the truth. He also demanded a climax at the end of each chapter, making information arrangement more difficult to handle.
The room where Kanon was first produced in 'Ghost Scheme'. After the prototype was too difficult to represent, the team joined in talking to the deceased to obtain the bubble of the hint; This change also introduces a story rule that allows conversations with non-human souls.
Visual production of "Ghost Schemes."
Qiaozhou uses a simplified background without text to avoid revealing specific eras and countries in "Ghost Scheme." DS recognizes small characters by outlines, colors, and a few lines; The main character designs are based on the lines and images when the script prototype is formed.
The lead programmer of "Ghost" suggested switching to 2D animation, with the team outputting 3D actions frame by frame as images. After room prototyping, this method was established. When the designer requested the Tenteko no Mai specifications, Kyoshu drew the storyboards and handed over the fun parts of the previously seen test moves to the team to create the animation by hand.
Consultation on the production of the 2023 port
The 2023 port of "Ghostly Scheme" requires integrating the DS dual-screen interface into a single screen. In the initial meeting, Qiaozhou explained the direction of expressions and composition that should be preserved, then the team raised questions and he gave feedback.
