This was also when different members of the team proposed plans for mini-games that can be played while waiting for matchmaking. It all started when, one day, he couldn’t work for roughly an entire day because of the circumstances with the sound development. Later in the interview, Nogami mentions that Tsuji created the Squid Beatz minigame by himself. That’s where the name kami-sama comes from (laughs).” Nogami: “Kami-sama is written as ‘paper’ when using kanji, so the topic of Splatfest comes as a fax-like paper. Those divine messages come from kami-sama. Like there would be a discussion ‘rice or bread?’ in current time, and those words fly to another planet and bounce back for them to receive. Inoue: “The world of Splatoon takes place 12,000 years after the present time and the Squid Sisters are those who receive messages from 12,000 years ago. Inoue and Nogami shared the following words about the two characters: We also have some additional comments about the Squid Sisters. Inoue noted that they aren’t there because of the Bloopers, and the design was instead created “to give an image of having parts below eyes painted black with make-up, like punk rock musicians and such do.” While some people have said that the Inklings are similar to Bloopers and he understands the comparisons, Inoue “thought that a bit of a rough attitude, similar to just debuted rock singer, fit this game.” This is how that mood turned into an image. Keeping in line with the discussion about the Inkling design, Famitsu asks if the black areas around their eyes was decided on from the start, and the magazine points out how they are reminiscent of the Bloopers from Mario. Nogami: “When it comes to the setting, they are 14 years old, but they were designed as having a mood of 16-17-year-olds.” Inoue: “The girl and the boy were drawn with a same kind of image in mind, but when comparing the boy and girl, the boy has a somewhat obedient image. We thought a great deal of that kind of image.” As a result, they weren’t quite that cute looking and they got a cheeky mood to them. Later the corners of the Inklings mouth and the bottom of their eyelids were raised. The messing around was designed to look like a sport. If Inklings were a little older, it would be a bit childish. That age is the last moment for seeing painting ink as something cool. Inoue: “That also fits well with the setting of Inklings being mischievous and shooting ink. Nogami: “It’s like there is nothing scary in the world (laughs).”
