Today Arnaldo, Kelly, and Paul are talking about one of our favourite 2D game developers, Vanillaware! The crew starts off talking about George Kamitani and the origins of the developer (5:00) and their first game, Princess Crown (12:50). Yes, we absolutely discuss the origin of the name 'Vanillaware' (22:30) followed by the first two games under the Vanillaware moniker, Odin Sphere and Grim Grimoire (25:00). Another two simultaneously developed games are up with Kumatanchi on the Nintendo DS, and Muramasa: The Demon Blade for the Wii and PS Vita (48:00). We wrap things up with another Japan only release in Grand Knights History on the PSP followed by fantasy beatemup tour de force, Dragon's Crown and insane visual novel / RTS, 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim.
