About the Developer
Hello! I am TakiGames, the solo developer behind Remnant Blade: The Scarlet Edge. I’ve been a lifelong fan of the hack-and-slash genre, growing up with foundational titles like Dynasty Warriors and Onimusha. My favorite AAA character action games of all time include Stellar Blade, NieR: Automata, Devil May Cry, and Nioh. I also run a YouTube channel dedicated to the genre, frequently highlighting mobile and free-to-play titles like Punishing: Gray Raven, Vindictus, and Honkai Impact 3rd, which serve as massive inspirations for my work. I began learning Unreal Engine as a hobby about seven years ago, slowly crafting my ultimate "dream game" that I am incredibly proud to finally share with the world.
