“We are thrilled to be working with the creators of the huge hit Crossy Road in creating a new PAC-MAN game for his 35th anniversary,” said Bandai Namco Vancouver’s Daisuke Hattori, the game’s project manager in today’s press release. Inspired by the 256th level glitch in the original Pac-Man, the game will be an endless runner. 2015: Pac-Man 256 īandai Namco has commissioned Hipster Whale to develop their next game, Pac-Man 256. In an interview for PocketGamer, Hipster Whale stated that they had "books filled with ideas" for future projects, which Matt Hall says they plan to work on alongside future updates for Crossy Road. Since the initial release, the team have continued working on Crossy Road as their only game, releasing various content updates (including the Australian Update and the Chinese New Year Update) and bug fixes. The name and concept of the game is from the joke "why did the chicken cross the road?" The Free-to-Play aspect came from Dota 2, while other inspirations include Temple Run, Subway Surfers, Disco Zoo, Flappy Bird, Skylanders, Tiny Wings, FEZ and Frogger. Hipster Whale took inspiration from many games when creating Crossy Road. However, the whole process went well over 12 weeks. Originally, the developers planned to spend only 6 weeks developing the game, according to Matt Hall, but decided to dedicate a further 6 weeks after realizing the potential that the game had. Hipster Whale began working on their first game, Crossy Road, in late 2014.
