Frequently Asked Questions:
What’s Chaos Sisters?
Chaos Sisters is a 2d Action Beat’em up game set in a lighthearted high fantasy world, where you play as two demons defending their home from a group of heroes. Read about it here!
Why are you doing this project?
I’m a Graphic Designer who has always been interested in game development and hand drawn animation, so I started this project to learn more about those things and get more stuff for my portfolio. I have learned much about programming and animation in the past year, and I’m sure I will learn much more before the project is over!
Despite being initially just for portfolio, this project was going forward so smoothly that I decided to try to turn it into a real game.
What Platforms will the game release on?
PC only. I will look into console releases after the game is otherwise ready, no promises.
Why 2D?
I always wanted to try out traditional animation, and have huge respect for games with 2D animation, primarily fighting games.

Why don’t you update the site more often?
I’m busy with work, and I prefer just posting my stuff on twitter instead of here. I’ll update this site once the game is closer to completion. In the mean time, please follow my twitter if you’re interested on updates.
