And Tony Atkins.

Hello.

So Lost Odyssey for those unaware, I've described as a quote-unquote traditional

JRP game with some serious heritage built exclusively for the very Western console

Xbox 360.

So I've used the word their heritage and I think when we go through the team that helped

build this game you'll understand a little more why the quality is there in terms of

the experience and the history.

So it was actually a

co-developed title between two companies. Mist Walker and Field Plus. Mist Walker is described as an

American-Japanese independent studio founded in 2004. Field Plus were established as a dedicated

studio to help the game alongside Mist Walker in terms of its development.

So let's get on to the team behind the game then.

So the scenario main story was Hirunobu Sakaguchi.

Many of you will have heard of him.

If you haven't, he was the man behind many of the Final Fantasy games.

Also, unusually for a game, there was a second writer involved in a very separate area of the game that was built on something called A Thousand Years of Dreams, written by Kyoshi Shigamatsu.
