Story
History
Hironao Takeda recalls that during the AS-1's production, AM5 felt they had little experience in the way of creating multi-person, family-oriented experiences, as up until then, Japanese arcades had been focused more on the individual. Takeda made the decision to contract American film director Douglas Trumbull (known for the pioneering Universal Studios motion simulator Back to the Future: The Ride) in the creation of a preliminary ride film to both demonstrate the AS-1 and provide a development reference for AM5 to work from.[2] As such, Muggo! displays a number of characteristics integral to successful ride film use, such as utilizing an on-screen host to contextualize the experience, or the use of sudden velocity changes to exaggerate ride motion.[3]
