Japanese game developer hasn't left the house in 10 years
&gt; The upcoming Pull Stay is, as you would expect, modeled around his principles and requires players to protect their hikikomori master by basically beating people who try entering his house for whatever reason.<p>I detect anger issues. And apparently he&#x27;s looking for a following so that he can upgrade his status to &quot;hikikomori master.&quot; What else do you have to do to hit the rank of master, if 10 years dedicated to the lifestyle doesn&#x27;t get you there? I guess in Japan, the answer is to develop a video game.<p>&gt; Since then, he&#x27;s learned English, started up a YouTube channel and learned game development en route to launching his first game with the help of a Kickstarter.<p>Note to self. Creating a game from zero knowledge is a really long process. Maybe he should have skipped learning English.<p>ETA: Here&#x27;s his Kickstarter link for quick reference.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.kickstarter.com&#x2F;projects&#x2F;1363912222&#x2F;pull-stay" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.kickstarter.com&#x2F;projects&#x2F;1363912222&#x2F;pull-stay</a>
