Development
Omega Factor was developed by Treasure and Hitmaker, and published by Sega. It was produced in conjunction with the PlayStation 2 game Astro Boy and the new Astro Boy TV series. Sega waited until the North American premiere of the TV series before releasing the games in North America. During this six-month wait, Treasure took the opportunity to rework some aspects of the North American version of the game. Some level layouts were filled with more enemies, and some enemies were given different attacks. In addition, Treasure somewhat improved the issue of framerate slowdown, and added a new third difficulty level. The game received a rating of "E" (Everyone) from the ESRB and 3+ from PEGI.
