Learn alphabets, collect vocab, and use what you learned to gain advantage when battling Yokai! Keep fighting until you unravel what is causing all this chaos and never give up in our Retro Topdown RPG Kagami: An Odyssey in Japanese Language Learning™

History

In Late 2022, while working on their first game “Witchbane”, the formerly Iconoclast team, now Two Brain team found that what they had been working on for the past year was not turning out as they had hoped. They learned a lot, but needed some time to find what was missing and to further develop their skills in making games. 


The lead artist and programmer had always discussed learning Japanese on the side as a hobby, and one of the ideas put forth to get a grasp on the vocabulary was to cover everyday objects with post-it notes, but then your living space would be… covered in post-it notes! As people who make virtual worlds, or at least claim to, they decided to try making a little game where you would interact with objects and test your knowledge. 


The concept seemed to fit well with an RPG style battle system with lots of text menus, and then a story and minigames began bubbling up, turning the initially small project into a full fledged game!
