Programming was chiefly handled by [[Nasir Gebelli]], and would be his largest project at Squaresoft. The inclusion of multiplayer was not planned from the beginning, but was experimented with and then fully implemented after the staff noticed that it felt boring to control one character while the A.I. handled the other two. Ishii consideres the multiplayer feature to be a "happy surprise", and the team was easily able to add it to the game's code since the programming involved is much less complex than the A.I. logic.
