This Gorgeous Game Was Created by One Man in Two Years, Inspired by Final Fantasy XV

At times games inspire us to create. Some write stories, other draw beautiful art, and then there are some that create their own games, often with very interesting results.

[DragonbornZ]

Looks like a big budget game.
Damn impressive

[bouzebbal]

I hope his efforts pay off. A game is more than just graphics but hats off for the graphical part

[UltraNova]

This dude is crazy... He made a FF clone by himself ? Damn he has some resolve and mad skills doesnt he?

I wish him the best of luck and that he manages to make his game as unigue as possible. We need more people like him and less corp formula bullshit.

[nix]

@Ultra

it's not only FF... this is FF + Ninja Gaiden + DMC.

Impressive stuff considering it's a one man project.

[DragonbornZ]

Not just the graphics, the combat looks dope.
Looks as smooth as dmc

[trooper_]

I think my jaw hit the floor when I saw that trailer.

-throws money at the screen-

[News4Noobs-]

So if one man created a game like this in 2 years (730 days) that one means that 50 mean man can create one like this in 14.6 days (730 ÷ 50 = 14.6). 🤔 interesting....

No, in this case math doesn't work I think... 🤐

But damn that was really awesome for just one man. Hope he gets hire by a big company to create some epic games.

[Muzikguy]

I hope he does too, not by some company like SE though. They had the talent and still messed it up. I have little faith in FFXV anymore. This guy could probably do a great RPG or two. I just think a company like Square Enix would ruin the man instead of make him shine

[Muzikguy]

Yeah that's crazy to think one man with a passion did this. Doesn't really say much for a whole team of talented developers and 10 years of work

[theXtReMe1]

Wow! If FFXV and DMC had a love child, this would be it. Looks incredible! Lets cross our fingers it makes its way to consoles. Id lve to play it!

[Kyosuke_Sanada]

After reading his facebook comments, he said it may take another 2 years for it to be finished but I can wait.

[Rimeskeem]

if this is the half way point this game will be absolutely mind boggling

[TwoForce]

He got contacted by Sony and Epic Game. I think he really need more people to help.

[RioKing]

I would say it'll take longer than 2 more years. From the creator himself:

Hello everyone, thanks a lot for supporting me so much, I’m really glad to see that people like it.

I have been working on it in full time for two years, and feed myself by doing freelance things, and actually my plan was to release the trailer as the end of full-time development and to find a full time job, then continue it in part-time with a really slow speed, maybe ten years or more.

My plan should disappoint you but by that way it can be less stressful, It’s kind of selfish, but just as Kazer said in the end scene, it’s just for saving myself.
I really haven’t expected that there wopuld be so many people liking it, which makes me hesitate to do as I planned. Actually, it’s a bit stressful right now.

This may disappoint you, but I can’t tell a lie that the game will come out in another 2 years.

Maybe there will be some opportunity in the future, allowing me to finish it within a team or in full-time. But right now I’m tired and want to rest.
Sorry for disappointing you guys, and thank you again for the encouragement.

There will be updates though.
Thank you again.

[Kyosuke_Sanada]

That's a bit depressing but hopefully he either gain some income or find a good publisher to help with development. I do understand why he is taking his current route though because the trailer has given him huge shoes to fill.

The best art is made when there are no deadlines and no budget constraints. Those kinds of pressures make for rushed games, stories with loads of plotholes, and so on. Even if you never release it, make the most of the creative process.

EDIT: Woops, my bad, didn't realize you were quoting the guy.

[ravinash]

It's a real labour of love.
it's nice that people have shown real interest in it, because it is really good and you can see the FF & DMC influences.
It would be a real shame if he starts to feel pressured by people to do what he really didn't want to do.
he's obviously talented, but at the end of the day, it's his life and he has to do what makes him happy.
He own the gaming community nothing.

@Gespenst

"The best art is made when there are no deadlines and no budget constraints."

That couldn't be further from the truth. Artists without constraint tend to chase every rabbit down every rabbit hole and you end up with a lot of fluff. Time constraints encourage focus and money constraints encourage innovation. Its creative interference from the suits that tends to screws things up.

[REDGUM]

well done. this looks amazing. Im not a rich bloke so could'nt trow money your way to help out however I believe I have something justas important. I have a close friend who does sound design, scores, development etc. I'm by nop means saying your piece of art needs it but if you ever needed someone in that area I can share his contact details with you.

The very best of luck with it all. Keep up thw amazing work.

[joab777]

I am at a loss for words! I really wanna get my hands on this. Enough praise could not thrown at this dev! If ya don't already have a great gig, I hope this gets ya one. Ya definitely deserve it.

[DualWielding]

WTF? I can't believe a single person did all that even if all he has is that single trailer

[SaveFerris]

Impressive. This guy is really talented.

[christocolus]

Looks amazing...

[ninsigma]

Wow that looks damn awesome!

[Artemidorus]

Ubisoft and EA have zero excuse. One man who provides better ideas and content.

More proof these companies are overpaid lazy people who demand more money yearly.

Wish gamers would wake up.

[feraldrgn]

Better combat than FFXV.
Someone hire this guy.

[Miss_Vixen]

This looks very intriguing.

[Elda]

This looks MF Ovah! I hope this is a game we can eventually play.

[-Gespenst-]

ONE guy made this? That is absolutely crazy... Kind of makes you wonder why SE have so many people working on XV.

[DigitalCentralMedia]

It looks amazing!!

[Relientk77]

Bro this looks sick

Looks like Final Fantasy with Devil may Cry/Ninja Gaiden combat, and a floating dragon companion

Can't believe it took 1 guy 2 years to make this, yet Square Enix like 10 years lol. Square Enix should probably hire this guy

[scark92]

Looks amazing, and the movement looks so fluid! Looking out for this one!

Also, if that dragon kept gliding in circles around me id kick his ass.

[Perjoss]

For a single person to do the art assets, animation and the coding for something like this takes a huge amount of talent. This is very impressive.

[FernDiggidy]

This person is ridiculously talented. The combat system looks superb!

[IhateYouAll]

Hope we get to play his work on current consoles, he's done bloody well 😊

[gangsta_red]

This looks incredible. Love these fast action hack n slash type games.

This guy should really shop this around and see if he can get a some extra help from a publisher or another developer.

[Jayszen]

Wow, this guy is...just too good. He did this all by himself? Prodigy or what? I am just gobsmacked! I understand he has now been approached by Sony and Epic so his talents have been noticed. I hope he and Sony get together - Sony knows how to make and sell games like these and will allow him the freedom he needs. Imagine this guy at Naughty Dog or Guerilla? Good days ahead for him and us! Godspeed!

[M-M]

It doesn't surprise me at all that one person made this. Some people are just really dedicated and/or talented. Gaming subsumes all media. If you love music, art, video production, gaming and so on, you can combine all of those with your imagination to make something great. I actually think games made of this quality by a single person will be more common as game development tools are more open and easier to use. Passion can take you a long way.

[WiiU-Dude]

I scrolled through the comments a little and I'm glad to see many saw what I did. I thought it resembled Bayonetta more than Final Fantasy, but many said Devil May Cry which works too. Looks incredible for a one person effort so far.

[Zarock]

This video adds a huge plus to his resume.

[3-4-5]

* He did use pre-made assets, but even then, it's still very impressive and a lot of hard work and talent obviously went into this.

So yea he didn't create some of the pre-made assets but he still used them in his own way and this does look of good quality.

[Fist4achin]

Simply amazing! If it ever comes to fruition, he will have my support.
