Development
Dengeki Gakuen RPG: Cross of Venus was developed by Pegasus Japan, and published by ASCII Media Works. The CG artwork featured in the game was done by a team of graphic artists from Akabeisoft2. The music in the game is composed by Yūji Toriyama. The game's opening theme song, "Odyssey" (オデッセイ, Odessei?), is sung by Yuuka Nanri and the lyrics are written by Yūho Iwasato. The game was first released in Japan on March 19, 2009 in limited and regular editions. The limited edition was sold at nearly twice the price of the regular edition, and included with the game a set of four small super deformed figurines of Taiga, Shana, Kino, and Index. A book of short stories written by Dengeki Bunko authors entitled Dengeki Gakuen RPG Bunko (電撃学園RPG文庫?) was given as a special favor for reserving either game edition; each story is set at Dengeki Academy.
An enhanced remake was released on the Nintendo DS on February 10, 2011 titled Dengeki Gakuen RPG: Cross of Venus Special (電撃学園RPG Cross of Venus SPECIAL?) developed by the same team. This version features a whole new map layout, upgraded to 3D graphics instead of the previous 2D graphics. Other additions include: new dialogue and party conversation, three new sub-scenarios, gameplay balancing and a boss rematch mode.

Famous quotes containing the word development:
“The Cairo conference ... is about a complicated web of education and employment, consumption and poverty, development and health care. It is also about whether governments will follow where women have so clearly led them, toward safe, simple and reliable choices in family planning. While Cairo crackles with conflict, in the homes of the world the orthodoxies have been duly heard, and roundly ignored.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“They [women] can use their abilities to support each other, even as they develop more effective and appropriate ways of dealing with power.... Women do not need to diminish other women ... [they] need the power to advance their own development, but they do not “need” the power to limit the development of others.”
—Jean Baker Miller (20th century)
“And then ... he flung open the door of my compartment, and ushered in “Ma young and lovely lady!” I muttered to myself with some bitterness. “And this is, of course, the opening scene of Vol. I. She is the Heroine. And I am one of those subordinate characters that only turn up when needed for the development of her destiny, and whose final appearance is outside the church, waiting to greet the Happy Pair!””
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
