Development
Einhänder was produced at Square's then-newly-founded Osaka office, which specialized in genres other than role-playing games. Director Tatsuo Fujii and programmer Akira Suzuki had previously programmed shoot 'em ups for Konami, including Gradius II and Xexex.
Development started under the working title Zauver (ザウバー Zaubā?) between October 1995 and June 1996.[1] This version, made by Square subdiary Solid, had a central theme of "Light and Darkness" and was promoted in magazine scans before being reworked starting in September 1996, when Solid was officially integrated into Square.[2][3] Many effects learned from the production of Final Fantasy VII were also used in Einhänder.[4]
