Īfter the main character's creation, the team went into three months of developing the game. The interior of Doctor Neo Cortex's castle was designed to reflect Cortex's twisted mind. Correct use of color was an important goal for Naughty Dog's artists for example, mutually accentuating colors were chosen as the theme for the "Lost City" and "Sunset Vista" levels. The Naughty Dog artists would squint when sketching, texturing and playing the levels to make sure they could be played by light value alone. Dark and light elements were juxtaposed to create visual interest and separate geometry. The artists were tasked with making the best use of textures and reducing the amount of geometry. A Naughty Dog artist sketched every single background object in the game before it was modeled. They aimed for an organic, overgrown look to the game and worked to completely avoid straight lines and 90-degree corners. On creating the levels for the game, Zembillas and Pearson first sketched each environment, designing and creating additional individual elements later. The marketing director of Universal Interactive insisted that the character be named "Wez", "Wuzzles" or "Wizzy the Wombat". Needing a lead character for the game, Naughty Dog recruited American Exitus artists Charles Zembillas and Joe Pearson and met with them weekly to create the characters and environments of the game, eventually creating a character named "Willy the Wombat". In January 1995, Rubin became concerned about the programmer-to-artist ratio and hired Bob Rafei and Taylor Kurosaki as additional artists. Together, Gavin and Baggett created the development tool "Game Oriented Object LISP" (GOOL), which would be used to create the characters and gameplay of the game. In November 1994, Naughty Dog hired Dave Baggett, their first employee and a friend of Gavin's from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In September 1994, Gavin and Rubin decided to develop their new game for the PlayStation, after which Rubin began character design. After moving into the Universal Interactive backlot, Gavin and Rubin met with Mark Cerny, discussed the design of the game and made an agreement to go into production.

The basic technology for the game and the Crash Bandicoot series as a whole was created somewhere near Gary, Indiana. Because the player would be forced to constantly look at the character's backside, the game was jokingly code-named " Sonic's Ass Game". During the trip, Gavin and Rubin decided to create a 3D action-platform game, taking inspiration from 16-bit-era games such as Donkey Kong Country, Mario and Sonic. In August 1994, Andy Gavin and Jason Rubin began their move from Boston, Massachusetts to Los Angeles, California.
