Rez creator Mizuguchi 'moving away from game development'

Tetsuya Mizuguchi, the games industry luminary who spearheaded production on cult classics such as Rez and Child of Eden, is stepping away from development, a new report suggests.

Q Entertainment director Nobuhiko Shimizu, who works closely with Mizuguchi, said the man is "now more of a spokesperson".

"Right now Mizuguchi does not produce the games," Shimizu told Eurogamer

However, the nature of Shimizu's comments suggest that Mizuguchi may return to development at some stage.

Q Entertainment's most recent project, Lumines Electronic Symphony, was produced by James Mielke, formerly the editor-in-chief for Electronic Gaming Monthly.

After the release of the game, Mielke moved to work at the Kyoto-based Q Games.
