Chris Sorrell and Jason Wilson, co-creators of ''MediEvil'', have also expressed disappointment with the game. Neither of them had any involvement with ''MediEvil: Resurrection'', and when they were asked about the game during an interview with RetroGamer, Jason Wilson said, “It was a strange feeling to see something you loved being remade by others. I now know what all those directors feel like when their movies are remade.” Chris Sorrell said that he was disappointed by the redesign of the game and how there were a number of aspects to ''MediEvil'' PSP that weren't really what he would have chosen. He did say, though, that the development team did an impressive job creating the game considering the time constraints they were up against. | Chris Sorrell and Jason Wilson, co-creators of ''MediEvil'', have also expressed disappointment with the game.
