Quote: "Miyagi: Because players went under the earth to treasure-hunt [in Pikmin 2], I had to design an underground space; but since my work tends to bury my head in a PC all day long, I didn't like the feeling of crawling around а dark area. So I designed some underground zones to have a connection to the world above, such as one ‘subterranean jungle’ made of concrete and sand, where I let some natural light break through a slit in the ceiling and let some grass appear down below.
And then for some above-ground areas, I wanted to have places that felt rejuvenating; so that’s why you see areas where cherry blossoms carpet the earth."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2e7f2uvcguv4d5qxqnyjmk32/bafkreibqdox74ruwxqkhr2hf3djzxa6iez2ml2aglsnimufvxpjqw3aw5e)
