It’s always insightful to hear creators take responsibility for their projects. Hideki Kamiya’s honesty about Scalebound’s cancellation shows a level of integrity that’s often rare in the industry. Looking forward to seeing what CLOVERS will bring to the table in the future!
It’s great to see that level of accountability! It’s interesting how this experience might shape future projects at CLOVERS, especially given their emphasis on innovation and storytelling. It’ll be exciting to see how they apply these lessons moving forward.
