Next Drillimation Game is Only 12.5% Complete, Despite Five Months of Work

Two weeks ago, Drillimation Systems released their newest game Touhou Kourinden ~ Mythos of Phantasmagoria on Steam. It marked the beginning of a brand new franchise for the company, and ever since Touhou Meijinka ~ Song of Divine Tempest was released last December, Drillimation has been hard at work on their next project. The same team that worked on Song of Divine Tempest is working on this new project, but as of May 19, 2024, it is only 12.5% done.

Why has development been slow? As with all previous Drillimation titles prior to Song of Divine Tempest, Susumu Takajima is directing this new game. However, E. Enthusiasm has been struggling to create graphics for the game as a result of procrastination issues. As a result, Susumu Takajima has jumped in to learn his graphical style and pen sprites for this new game in the style.

Below are a collage of Screenshot Saturday tweets containing screenshots from this new game.

Screenshots show game in development. Game content not final; graphics and features subject to change.

That said, this game is in desperate need of graphic artists. If you are an artist and would like to help on this new project, don’t hesitate to view the dedicated Careers page on our website for details.

  1. Oh, this was a real nice read! I watched the two games! One reminds me of a game I have played, Galaga. And then Ember’s journey in the other video is really well done, too! I like “hold the z key down til green! And watch what happens! I like the battles where you have to make sure your health, magic, etc have to be watched carefully! Great fun once again! Thank you!!🌸☀️
