According to Yoshiki Watabe, the game was originally going to have the hero slime have a sword and shield, and throw a boomerang. When they looked at the concept, they thought, "This isn't really a slime game. It's just like a blue version of Link!" Instead of making a Zelda like game, they decided to focus on what a slime could do that other characters couldn't.

There is a tank called "DQ Swords" in the game that has the tagline "The Revolution is coming! Wee!" This is believed to be a foreshadowing to the game Dragon Quest Swords on the Wii. During the start of Rocket Slime's localization to the west, the Wii was still likely code named the "Revolution."
