Galante understandably expressed excitement over the fact that his initially small indie project grew popular enough to spawn a TV adaptation. He expressed the same sentiment in regard to working with the studio members at Story Kitchen, calling them “experienced and talented people.” He also labeled the story of Vampire Survivors as its most important aspect, which is definitely the truest statement he’s ever said.
