EA had almost withdrawn from developing on the Nintendo 64; however, it was found that pre-order revenues for the game had skyrocketed, so EA decided to reverse their decision and make more sports games for the console.

In an interview with the game's Cave devgroup leader and Toaplan alumni Toshiaki Tomizawa published in the 2002 GSLA and likely featured in Arcadia, Tomizawa stated that the game is actually a orthodox shoot 'em up. Whereas Dodonpachi Daioujou's design has more futuristic looks, with Ketsui the team wanted the game to be a little more realistic and similar to the modern world. The team wanted to emphasize the aspects that would attract to a wider base of casual gamers, so they made the game's world somewhat more recognizable, and be quicker and easier to understand. Additionally, one of the core themes for the game's design was "steel". Since standard modern weaponry was being used, they wanted that to be realistic as well.

In an interview with the game's designer Hitoshi Sasaki published in the 1996 Dengeki SFC magazine, he stated that at the start of the game's development, his team wanted to make a strategy RPG game, but that it was not an explicit goal. They had an indescribable idea that seemed interesting to them which ended up working as a strategy RPG game despite not exactly being set on making the game that genre from the get-go.

By swapping map files, it is possible to play the first two single-player exclusive levels in co-op mode. The first level, Roadside Destruction, plays like a regular co-op level while the second level, Chicken Con Carnage, requires player one to take control of the tornado while the second player grabs the Fire Flyers. This mechanic was eventually reused during the Vortex Race and Totem Battle segments after completing all zones.

By modding the game, it is possible to completely disable the blue screen of death glitch. The outcome varies depending on the level, and in most cases the game either crashes or becomes softlocked, but some unusual results can still come out of disabling it. In the final zone of Chicken Con Carnage, restarting the level with the dialogue popup on screen will result in Nimbus sliding away from the camera while idling.

Attachment An E3 2009 developer walkthrough revealed that the game had a removed mechanic called advance chain collecting, which completely removes the smoke, sparks, and sizzling sounds emitted from objects containing Fire Flyers. As a result, this changes the game's difficulty. It is possible to enable this mode in the Wii version of the game via modding.

The game's theme song was composed by Hironobu Kageyama, best known for his performance of "Cha-La Head Cha-La", the first opening theme song for the Dragon Ball Z anime, while the Goemon Impact theme was composed by Ichirou Mizuki, known for his performance on the Mazinger Z anime's intro. This also subtly references the shows being parodied as Goemon's Sudden Impact form resembles Goku's Super Saiyan form, and the Goemon Impact boss battles feature robots, reminiscent of Mazinga Z's mecha elements.

Attachment Within the game's files is a gun with the model ID "WP_A_9999" that when loaded is revealed to bear an identical resemblance to the Lancer from Gears of War, originally released as an Xbox 360 exclusive. It's unknown why this weapon wasn't removed from the game considering how out of place it is with the rest of Demon's Souls, but the most likely theory is that it was leftover test data stemming from when FromSoftware developed the Xbox 360 exclusive Chromehounds.
