No reaction from Nintendo. Who knows if they have even seen it :)

We put about a month of work into each character. These are unusual characters, so there was a bit of exploration in the modeling phase to figure out how to best realize them in this somewhat realistic style. Carlos Ortega did the Mask Seller model, and Anders Ehrenborg did the Skull Kid. Definitely check out their work, they are very inspiring artists! We gave them about two weeks on the models, then internally we did a detail pass on the textures, set up the hair, and refined shaders.

Also Cordell Felix did an amazing job with Majoras mask....that asset alone took a while. The modeling and texture work is top notch.

We wanted to convey that the true evil in this story is Majora's Mask, not the Skull Kid. In some ways it gives the Mask Salesman's character some depth, as if he may not fully understand what happened and points a finger at Skull Kid by default. Or even that the mask could have warped his mind, and his perception of these events, affecting his retelling of the story later.

Just kidding didn't have resources to leave anything on the cutting room floor.

We actually had about 86 more minutes of material, but decided to go short and sweet instead.
