Development
In the winter of 1993/1994, Konami newcomers Yoshitaka Murayama (writer) and Junko Kawano (designer) were tasked with creating an RPG for an internally developed video games console. What was produced ended up being an early version of the script for Suikoden II, before the console was cancelled, and the RPG project shelved. Shortly thereafter, it was reopened with the intention of being one of Konami's first games for Sony's upcoming PlayStation console. Murayama however, being keen not to rush into the story, wrote the "prequel" script that was used for the first Suikoden instead. This was in order to gain some experience in games development before tackling the Suikoden II story.

Famous quotes containing the word development:
“The highest form of development is to govern one’s self.”
—Zerelda G. Wallace (1817–1901)
“Women, because of their colonial relationship to men, have to fight for their own independence. This fight for our own independence will lead to the growth and development of the revolutionary movement in this country. Only the independent woman can be truly effective in the larger revolutionary struggle.”
—Women’s Liberation Workshop, Students for a Democratic Society, Radical political/social activist organization. “Liberation of Women,” in New Left Notes (July 10, 1967)
“Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
