Daisuke Taka, the producer behind the charming Nintendo Switch exclusive Harvestella, has announced that he will be leaving the team at Square Enix at the end of April. It is not entirely clear what Mr. Taka is looking to do next, but we wish him the best of luck. In a message posted on X he said that he’s extremely grateful to all who played Harvestella along with the team which helped develop the game.
“I’ll be leaving Square Enix at the end of April,” Taka said in the tweet. “Yesterday was my last day going into the office!”
He continued, “I’m blessed as a producer that there are still so many people playing HARVESTELLA, which was released the year before last. To all the players, streamers, stream viewers, and the staff involved in its development—thank you so much.
“As for me personally, I’m completely undecided on what I’ll do next. Generally people say they’re undecided while they really have their next thing lined up, but in my case I’m ‘completely undecided’!! How reckless!!
“I hope to participate in and create interesting things, so whether you’re a professional or amateur, feel free to reach out. I’m a lightweight, but I’d love to grab a drink. See ya.”
Thanks to Greatsong1 for sending in the news tip
So sorry to hear a member go, but as long as Enix new games come fast and not slow.
Harvestella is one of my favorite games of all time… hopefully he finds fulfilling work and great success!! <3
Glad to her that producer could escape this awful company. I wish him only the best.
I wish him the best of luck in whatever he decides to do next.
