Future GPX Cyber Formula has to be one of my favorite anime's from the 90's, and I have it to thank for getting me into Formula 1 racing. I just wish that we had some games for it😭. The only games for it that I know of were released on the GameCube, PlayStation 2, and the PSP (that game I actually have). I would love to see how it would look like on modern day game consoles.
The graphics for this game would probably be insane. I would love to play a game like this.
Michio is *heavily* inspired by William from Code Lyoko. So much so that I think he WAS him when I dreamt up the story. In retrospect, I’m having a hard time believing I actually had a dream about William. I rarely ever have dreams involving characters that I love.
Kenji’s design came less naturally to me. He was the most basic shounen protagonist I could think up. I thought of making him look like the guy from Future GPX Cyber Formula, except older. His hair is still partially inspired by him. But now, he’s more like a manlier version of Kenma Kozume from Haikyuu. I’ve loved that boy’s design since I first saw pictures of him, but I sadly couldn’t get invested in the series. So I’m glad that I found a way to put elements of him into my own story. Really just the cat eyes, bleached hair, and getting easily flustered. xD
