Aoki expressed his delight to be working with Sega, praising the Sonic franchise. A part of his statement reads as:

“The best Sonic game is definitely the OG Sonic the Hedgehog. That’s the game that started it all for me. That’s the game I was most obsessed with, and, uh, I just remember putting it in the Genesis console and just rocking out."
