Typhoon's new 3D art director @ricardomenin.bsky.social is already creating some amazing things for the game, including the Ressaca! Within the next few weeks, we have much more to show. The game is finally becoming visually interesting :)

Back to the basics: working on how Typhoon Dragoon feels! Hikaru built a movement sandbox for Connor focused on control feel: acceleration and turn tuning, input buffering and an intent-driven camera! It's WIP, but it's getting better! #gamedev #godot #indiegame #rpg #japan

Thank you to @ricardomenin.bsky.social for bringing Typhoon’s 3D world to life, and to my dear wife Pangami, my source of unbounded and limitless strength, for beginning her journey as Typhoon’s narrative designer and co-developer.

Typhoon Dragoon is my attempt to honor those fans by trying to create The Ultimate RPG. My heartfelt thanks to Matthew Moss, Tokyo Game Bridge, and Le Wagon Tokyo for making this showcase possible.

For 15 years as a reviewer, I have advocated for developers listening to real, true lovers of the medium: people raised on Zelda, Pokémon, Final Fantasy, Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, and more, especially those disappointed by an industry increasingly driven by passing trends instead of its fans.

It is the greatest and most ambitious creation I have ever undertaken. It will take years, but putting it into the hands of real players, to test, challenge, and break it, will make it stronger and give us the confidence to bring this vision fully to life.

Typhoon Dragoon is one episode, born from an event that changed me forever. In 2018, after an accident, doctors told me I lost my life for five minutes during surgery. To me, it felt like three months. Dragoon is my attempt to give form to what I experienced, and to the strange place I saw.

I first imagined Typhoon 13 years ago as a series I want to finish before I die. Back then, I called it “my very own Final Fantasy.” Since then, Typhoon has been shaped by everything I love: games, anime, Japan 🇯🇵, Brazil 🇧🇷, and the people and beauty of our world, even Serbia! 🇷🇸

Y'are snared in me own threads o’ Fate! This is Ronan Santiago. With energy spilling from his fingers, a scholar's clumsiness and chaos worth following, he's the Compounder of the Alchemical Trio at the heart of Typhoon Dragoon. You can count on him to topple the impossible!

Part of the Titan I am building, I made a helix-like slope around the lower part of the leg. For a while now I've been looking to find an excuse to include Nier Automata-like 2.5D sections in the game, and this was the perfect opportunity. #gamedev #godot #indiedev #jrpg

I implemented a basic floating dash feature on top of running to increase speed but also look ✨cool✨. The phantom effect gets colored by the currently equipped element the player is using. #indiedev #gamedev #godot #3dgame #RPG #JRPG

If you have four open worlds in a game, but you can't walk from one to the other... is it still an open world game?
