A look back at Crazy Games and Shinya Nishigaki
51This is part `1 of a 3 part series looking at Shinya Nishigaki, Crazy Games, and Climax Graphics released titles such as Illbleed and Blue Stinger. In this episode we will be looking at the tragically short life of Shinya Nishigaki and how all of his projects came to be. Shinya was a man who truly loved cinema, and accidentally found himself in the gaming market. Not wanting to squander his opportunity at doing something he loved, Shinya attempted to make video games that had an emphasis on flowing like a movie and presenting itself as one.
