He confirmed that this didn&#8217;t take him much time to achieve, but that the game was interesting enough for him to do it. Furthermore, he even signed off his tweet by explicitly praising <em>Astro Bot,<\/em> saying it&#8217;s a &#8220;great game&#8221;.<\/p>    <p>This tweet was made <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/-49L25Q0YAU\">in response to his most recent YouTube video<\/a>, in which he explains how important it is for developers to be mindful of the time players are giving them when playing through their games. After all, modern audiences have a variety of different options for things they can do with their free time, and therefore they must feel like their time investment must be worthwhile. He kept this philosophy in mind when he developed <em>Super Smash Bros<\/em>. and, with this new tweet, Sakurai seems to pose<em> Astro Bot<\/em> as an example of a good game that doesn&#8217;t waste any time. <\/p>    <figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Astro-Bot-and-tree.jpg?resize=640%2C360\" alt=\"Astro Bot and the big tree (Will it ever appear in Super Smash Bros?)\" class=\"wp-image-596732\" style=\"width:840px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Astro-Bot-and-tree.jpg?w=1200 1200w, https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Astro-Bot-and-tree.jpg?w=300 300w, https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Astro-Bot-and-tree.jpg?w=768 768w, https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Astro-Bot-and-tree.jpg?w=1024 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>    <p>Team Asobi, the developer behind <em>Astro Bot<\/em>, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TeamAsobi\/status\/1834071599181603244\">responded on its official Twitter\/X account<\/a> to Sakurai, and said: &#8220;Dear Sakurai-san, thank you so much for taking the time to play <em>Astro Bot<\/em>!
