Goichi Suda -- a.k.a. Suda51 -- of Grasshopper Manufacture has been discussing his move into social gaming, noting that he has many concepts for social and mobile games and hopes to release all of them at some point.
News emerged yesterday that the industry veteran has signed up with mobile social game network and developer DeNA, and will be producing social gaming titles for the mobile social network Mobage.
DeNA revealed that Suda51's first release will be a social game based off his popular
No More Heroes franchise. In a press conference today,
as translated by Andriasang, the creator said that he wants to make the most violent social game ever.
"We're aiming to make it the social game with the most blood," he said. He also noted that he hopes to bring the final product overseas once it is released.
Suda51 went on to reveal that he has "around 100 social game concepts" ready, and hopes to release each of these one at a time via Mobage.
It was also revealed earlier in the month that Suda is working with
Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima on a radio drama based on Kojima's cult hit adventure title
Snatcher.
