May 5, 1994, Monday.
Zaboru is now in his office at ZAGE’s Tokyo headquarters, where the team is actively testing the prototype that will soon beco the ZAGE 16-bit ga console. He closely monitors the progress of four gas being developed in the Tokyo branch, while another four are simultaneously in developnt at the Osaka branch. Zaboru has been working tirelessly, pouring his energy into every detail of the project. He hasn’t slept in weeks, and now, as night falls, exhaustion is finally catching up with him. His eyes are heavy, and his body is worn from the relentless pace he’s kept.
He slumped onto the couch in his personal office workshop, exhaling a long, weary breath. "Damn... I might be overdoing it," he muttered. Zaboru was pushing his body far beyond its limits. Even though his Enlightennt abilities enhanced his stamina, weeks of nonstop work without proper rest were taking a toll. Normally, he functioned at peak efficiency on just two hours of sleep a day. But now, even that seed unattainable. He had to oversee every aspect of Project Blue—every console unit, every ga in developnt. While his employees had already gone ho for the night, Zaboru remained, eyes glued to screens and hands adjusting hardware, determined to ensure everything progressed without a hitch. All of this effort is to ensure that every ga functions correctly and is fully playable. Due to Zaboru’s intense ambition, ZAGE plans to launch eight titles alongside their new console—a massive undertaking. However, the ZAGE team is still inexperienced with 16-bit systems, which is why Zaboru feels the need to personally guide them through the process. Although many employees are willing to work overti, Zaboru insists they don’t. He prefers that they work at their peak performance on working days, knowing that unlike him, they don’t possess cheat-like abilities to sustain such extre workloads.
Not long after, Ayumi arrived at the ZAGE office, exhaling a deep sigh as she spotted Zaboru. "Zabo, you need to rest. I beg you..." she pleaded, clearly worried. She always told him to rest, but Zaboru always seed to brush it off.
Zaboru chuckled weakly. "Fine, Ayumi, I’ll rest."
Ayumi crossed her arms and huffed. "You’re going to sleep here again, aren’t you? Let take you ho. It’s better if you rest in your own bed."
Zaboru was about to argue that it would just waste ti, but Ayumi cut him off sharply. "No wasting ti talk, Champion! You either co ho and rest, or I’ll make you."
Ayumi looked genuinely intimidating, and Zaboru sighed, defeated. "Fine, let’s go."
Ayumi then called her driver, Junjou, and together they escorted Zaboru back to his ho. There, at last, Zaboru finally got the rest he desperately needed—he slept a full six hours, sothing that hadn’t happened in a long ti.
The next day, Zaboru resud his usual routine, continuing work on Project Blue. However, this ti he was careful not to overexert himself. He made a conscious effort to incorporate rest into his schedule, taking short breaks throughout the day to maintain his focus and energy. For once, he allowed himself to pause and breathe, knowing that consistent rest was now part of his daily discipline.
Ti continued to fly by. Now, it is already 19 March 1994, and the atmosphere at ZAGE is electric with anticipation. At this point, Project Blue is almost fully realized, sitting at an impressive 99% completion. Zaboru has already directed and finalized the filming for both the teaser trailers and the full-length advertisents for the upcoming console. The teaser spots are slated to air on Friday, 21 March, aiming to build early hype and draw attention. The full advertisents are scheduled for broadcast on Sunday, 23 March. These will lead into the grand reveal: the console itself is planned for release the following Sunday, 30 March 1994. Everything is progressing according to schedule, and excitent is steadily growing inside and outside the company.
ZAGE has not released any gas this month. The Tokyo and Osaka teams are fully dedicated to finishing Project Blue, while the USA branch is concentrating its resources on developing Tekken Arcade.* Still there are plenty of 3rd party ga devs that submit their gas to ZEPS or ZGB this month which make the ZEPS and ZGB library not really dry .
This has led many to speculate that ZAGE is putting everything into this console launch. Gars and the public alike are aware that ZAGE is entering the 16-bit arena to compete directly with Sonaya’s existing 16-bit system. So believe ZAGE’s new console will outshine Sonaya’s, with rumors that the hardware is more powerful. Others remain skeptical, questioning whether ZAGE truly understands how to innovate within the 16-bit frawork. While the Titan Drive has delivered great visuals and solid gaplay, its biggest leap has been in graphics—which, while impressive, may not be enough on their own.
With the release of Project Blue fast approaching, Zaboru now sits in his office, reviewing the entire initiative on his own, a rare sense of satisfaction washes over him—he’s genuinely pleased with how far the project has co.
