Kouno’s reply [to the question of why his dev house was called ‘Nude Maker’] : “I feel that game designers should not make games just with the mindset of ‘I want to become famous’ or ‘I want to be well-known.’ So we want to kind of throw away these worldly concerns. And in Japanese, the saying that ‘we can become naked’ means ‘to show your true heart.’ So that’s where it’s coming from. We want to be very honest.”
