TSURUGIHIME News

[Developer's Note #19] Her name is Momiji.

Hello, this is the 213℉ Development Team.

In the previous issue #18, we introduced one of the main character Arche's rivals, Momiji Mizumura Gentosai, with illustrations. In this issue, we will introduce how Momiji moves as a 3D character!



The characters appear in the form of chibi characters in TSURUGIHIME. Each chibi character is designed by the character designer, KUROBOSHI KOUHAKU!




When creating the 3D model, we compare the 2D and 3D versions to ensure that the impression and features of KUROBOSHI's design are not lost.




And here is the finished product. When we turned it around, it ended up looking like this!



And finally.


Here are a few of Momiji's expressions shown in the game! Momiji is in the same family as the main character Arche and is like an older sister to her, so we hope you will enjoy what Momiji has to offer in the game!


We will continue to introduce new characters and stories in the next issue, so please follow us and add on your wishlist!

[Developer's Note #18] A loyal girl.

Hello, this is the 213℉ Development Team.

In the previous issue #17, we introduced the synopsis of the game. The main character, Arche, a.k.a. TSURU-chan(temporary), will be battling against six rivals who are "Tsurugi wielders" just like her. We will now introduce Arche's rivals one by one!

In this first installment, we will introduce her!



A girl dressed in Japanese elements: a long sword, armor, umbrella, and rope.
Her name is...

[h3]Momiji Mizumura Gentosai[/h3]

You can call her Momiji!

Momiji is like a family member who studied swordsmanship at the same dojo as Arche, lived with Arche's family, and is like Arche's one and only best friend.

Arche and Momiji eventually crossed blades through a sword fighting tournament.


She thrusts her blade for loyalty.


What will Momiji think and aim for as she enters the tournament? We will introduce her details at some point in the future.


Like Arche, Momiji and her rival "Tsurugi wielders" will also gradually damage the appearance of their equipment as the player inflicts damage.





Like this!
It's a very clear game mechanics for players, where the damage inflicted is visually represented!


We will continue to introduce new characters and stories in the next issue, so please add to your Wish list and stay tuned! We will continue to bring you the latest information before anywhere else, so please follow us as well!

[Developer's Note #17] TSURU-chan(temporary)'s real name is...

Hello, this is the 213℉ Development Team.


Have you seen our latest video released on Saturday, Dec. 2?

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
We have introduced many new characters and various battle scenes. There are still a lot of mysteries and many aspects of the game that you may be wondering about, but we will be sharing more information with you little by little through this News!





So today, let's talk about the main character. We have been calling her by the temporary name of TSURU-chan (temporary) for about a year now, and finally, here we would like to reveal her name to the public!
Her name is...

[h3]Arche A. Pleides[/h3]

From now on, please call her Arche, instead of TSURU-chan (temporary)!



Who is she such a person?
We hope you will enjoy imagining her through the synopsis of this work, which will also be published here for the first time!


---



Arche runs her own dojo following the footsteps of her late mother, who was known for her majestic sword skills.

She lived quietly with her younger sister as she barely got through the day teaching the neighborhood kids.

One day, an invitation finds its way to Arche. It was an invitation to a sword fighting tournament where the winner prevails a fortune and the honor of being the greatest swordsman.

Arche decides to enter the competition to protect what her mother left behind.

But what awaited her were 6 "Tsurugi" wielders.

The "Tsurugi" blade,

it possesses phenomenal powers that even slash fate.

This story depicts the 100 days of two sisters who were guided, bamboozled, afflicted, and saved by the blade.
