Keita Takahashi, the creator of Katamari Damacy,
recently told the BBC that he plans to leave the gaming industry to pursue a career in playground design: "In 10
years time, I am not going to be making games any more… I would like to create a playground for children… an
undulating one, with bumps." Takahashi holds a degree in sculpture design and believes that children should spend
more time playing in the physical (read: outside) world. His presence in the "virtual" world will be sorely
missed.
