Jean Nguyen, a former designer for Ghost of Tsushima, is developing a game known as Dino-Sword where predatory dinosaurs engage in heated sword fights.


Ghost of Tsushima Developer Crafts Dinosaur-Samurai Game

In an unexpected fusion of prehistoric predators and ancient weaponry, Jean Nguyen, also known as JeanAnimate, is making waves in the gaming community. Nguyen, a key animator for the renowned Ghost of Tsushima game, has embarked on a captivating personal project: a game called Dino-Sword. Although in its early development stages, this game promises action, adventure, and some humorous parody.

True to its intriguing name, Dino-Sword sets dinosaurs with imposing swords against each other in epic battles. A tantalizing teaser video presents a misty landscape of rock and soil, ruled by presumably a father-son duo of Spinosaurus dinosaurs in the throes of combat.

One of the unique elements is the weaponry. The eight-foot swords carried by these dinosaurs are not mere creations from Jean's imagination. In a fascinating twist, the carnivorous foes are seen wielding the famous Buster Sword from Final Fantasy during full combo attack animations.

Nguyen has not only put thought into the visual aesthetics but also intricately designed combat tactics, leveraging BP__Systems. Through smooth movements and intuitive battle strategies, players will be able to fully immerse themselves into this ancient world of seemingly unlikely warriors.

But the appeal doesn't stop there. The game holds potential for enthralling auditory experience too. Néstor M. Ronda, a seasoned composer known for the soundtrack of Viper Games' Stygia, is in charge of the musical score for Dino-Sword. If the preview is any indication, players are in for a treat. The background music is rich, textured, and powerfully evocative, calling to mind the thrilling scores of popular games such as Nier Automata.

Nguyen is yet to announce a confirmed release date for Dino-Sword, but the early insights have already stirred up anticipation amongst gaming enthusiasts. It's not every day that one comes across a game where a fourteen-foot reptile wields a bastard sword – a decision that's both alarming and amusing simultaneously.

With a unique concept, skillful execution, and undeniably catchy music, Dino-Sword seems set to be an entertaining venture for players. The bizarre joy of maneuvering sword-wielding dinosaurs promises an exciting, immersive experience. Through this eagerly-awaited game, Jean Nguyen looks set to ensure his reign extends from samurai spectacle Ghost of Tsushima to the unlikely combination of dinosaurs and ancient warfare in Dino-Sword.
