Samurai Jack
From AboveTheGarage
Check it out! We used the voice talent from the show! And the original composer!
Samurai Jack was a labor of love for all involved. It ultimately sold like 10,000 copies on PS2 and Gamecube. Man.
But it was a thing of beauty. We worked with Genndy, the original creator and director of Samurai Jack. What an experience! We probably met with him about three times but it was so great to see how a real director works. He was so specific and easy to understand. He looked at our stuff and gave direct feedback that went straight back into the game.
Cartoon Network called our game "The first real game based on a Cartoon Network property." Warner Bros. was thrilled. We were heroes! But somehow the game just didn't catch. Probably zero marketing was a factor but not really. It turns out the property was a just a really niche property.
But man, what fun.
