Character Designer for the Final Art of the game?

[Wereriche]

Hi guys,

I was wondering if anyone can point out who did the final art for 1/2 Genie Hero? So far, the results I get are Matt Bozon and James Montagna. Although I picked up this guy named Makoto Yabe (aka KOU) but he works for Inti Creates so I'm not entirely sure if he's the one.

If anyone can help, that would be great. Thanks! :)

Yeah, WayForward's had Inti Creates on for Shantae's artwork since Pirate's Curse. Link to the Kickstarter post here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1236620800/shantae-half-genie-hero/posts/600876 orrrr if that's not working in case of not being a backer;

W-A-R-N-I-N-G-! Tie down your inner fanboy… We’re pleased to announce that Mega Man developer Inti Creates is working on Shantae: Half-Genie Hero! If you’re not familiar with Inti Creates, they’re the studio behind Mega Man 9 & 10, the Mega Man Zero Series on Game Boy Advance, and Mega Man ZX and ZX Advent....and now Mighty No. 9!

In September of 2011, mysterious Shantae fan art appeared in the gallery of Inti Creates employee Makoto Yabe (aka KOU). At KOU’s suggestion, Matt Bozon reached out to Inti Creates President and CEO Takuya Aizu to see if his studio would like to collaborate on Shantae. By the end of the year, Inti Creates was hired-on for Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse, and has since continued on with Shantae: Half-Genie Hero.

Inti Creates has developed key artwork, concepts, and character illustrations for the Shantae series; many of which you’ve already seen both here, and in our 3DS PAX demo. We are thrilled to finally reveal them as official members of the Half-Genie Hero team.
