This character had a minor role in the Devolver Digital Cinematic Universe. During Devolver Digital’s Big Fancy Press Conference 2017, SUDA51 was introduced to speak about an Earliest Access title developed by GRASSHOPPER MANUFACTURE. He joined the conference by video call, but quickly questioned the meaning of the call and even admitted he had never heard of Devolver. He then scrambled over to disconnect from the call. Later, the likeness of SUDA51 was implanted into the robotic host of Devolver’s 2022 press conference, dubbed Mecha SUDA51.
While SUDA51 appeared not to be familiar with Devolver in 2017, later in 2023 he shared some of his memories working on a Nintendo DS title for Devolver called Dr. Volvy’s MIND WORKOUT.

Notes
- While SUDA51‘s real-life Twitter account commented on Dr. Volvy’s MIND WORKOUT, the game starring Volvy, a mascot character within the Devolver Digital Cinematic Universe, meant that his words were to be understood as being in-universe as well. That being said, SUDA51 taking credit for Devolver’s tweet about Dr. Volvy’s MIND WORKOUT created an inconsistency in the Devolver Digital Cinematic Universe. In the Big Fancy Press Conference 2017 video, SUDA51 did not recognize Devolver, however, he chose to mention them by name in his retweet, showing that his character would have known about them since the Nintendo DS era.
