History and roots

Where our worlds come from.

The worlds we build begin in Vietnamese history and in the legends told about our origins. We aim to credit where each story comes from, and to keep history, legend and our own invention clearly apart.

The roots
Con Rồng Cháu Tiên
The Vietnamese legend of the Dragon and the Fairy, passed down through generations, is the root of our creative universe.
The first game
VÕ
Now in development, VÕ draws its characters from Vietnamese generals, historical figures and legends.
Future direction
Animation
We aim to carry these stories into animation, as resources and results allow.
Future direction
Triển Lãm Game Á Đông
We aim to build game media that gives Vietnamese and East Asian games room to be seen.

The craft

How a legend becomes a world.

Drag or swipe to follow the process

Concept
Every world starts small: a line, a glyph, the fold of a sleeve.
Story
We study the history, respect the legend, then write what comes next.
Characters
Generals, historical figures and legends, each drawn as a person, not a statue.
Worlds
Stone gates, mountain paths and mist: places built to be crossed and remembered.
Animation
Painted figures learn to move, with weight, with breath, with rhythm.
Play
Play is where the story hands the move to you.

Roadmap

Where VÕ stands, and what comes next.

VÕ is planned in three phases, from a compact first release toward greater production and operating capability. Each phase’s result informs the next, so goals and timing are adjusted with evidence; this is a plan, not a release schedule.
