Hello! In this video I show a preview of some of the things I've been working on recently in preparation for the Early Access (which will be available through Patreon). This includes the full process from starting up the game to entering the world in free flight, studio logo animation, UI design and hierarchy with menus, panels, buttons and animations, in-game Patreon integration (that is how the EA will be handled until it is ready for Steam EA), title screen, main menu with dragon petting, shader precompilation (it is so fast you don't notice it), loading screen, and some more things that aren't visible. As always it is WIP but still good enough to show. It's quite a lot of work to build and design from scratch which is why there hasn't been much progress in terms of gameplay recently, but once all of that is done I can get back to more exciting things! If you haven't kept up with the regular updates on Discord discord.gg/dragontwin, the goal is to get the EA in the hands of the the first batch of Patreon supporters by the end of January, starting with the highest tier and going down the tier list with 2 week intervals (I will soon update the website www.dragontwin.com/earlyaccess with more information). The first build will just be free flying like in this video with more features and content coming in subsequent builds. Lots of interesting things planned for the first half of next year! If you want to support the development of the game, the best way right now is by joining the Patreon: www.patreon.com/c/Sidenius
Nah, I don't trust any developer asking for money, as they Are ALWAYS scams. Road to Vostok, THAT'S how an independent developer SHOULD act! Does he have a Patreon? Yep! Do you have to send money to play the game? OF COURSE NOT! This is 100% a scam!
@pinkyizthebrain2397 No, just like any small brands/businesses this is a great way to support the creator. They have to do this with their own time, money, and effort. And while they are putting product out there, ofcourse they would need an income. It's a product! I love the development so I'll forever support. They have done an amazing job. I'd pay for this product even early access. If it bothers you then leave. Bothers none of us supporters.
So looks so so good! And that right wing flap at 1:01 is perfect. I've never seen such beautiful wing movement from any other games. I can't wait for the early access to drop so I can fly around on some relaxing music.
I think it is safe to say that this is the best dragon animation in a game, period. Better than most film/tv animation as well. Beautiful work. I am very curious to see some land based/walking animation, but I realise this is a long term project and that would be a whole thing on its own.
Looks absolutely incredible! I can't thank you enough for your hard work, this is going to be a dream come true. It's surreal to see the improvement in each new sneak peek, it's just wild how much progress you've made since February. Keep up the good work, but take care of yourself too!
STOP I CAN'T WITH THE PETS 🙈🥰 I am wholeheartedly so blown away. & impressed! everything feels so whimsical & the music aligns so perfectly.. gosh, im at a loss. cant waaaait
Pats for dragon, that made me smile! 🥰I really like the fire flare/ glow to the title menu. I can relate to how much work is going into this, building something from scratch, but you're doing a really amazing job.
The control is very nice The graphics are awesome The OST is amazing The designs are crazy Man you really cook Keep going man I follow you from Saudi Arabia and I am very excited for this game
Hello!! It is so incredible!😮 I am so Happy to see that all your efforts for this game begin to pay. You have all my respect and i wish you will continue this way. I know there is a lot more to do but be proud of you and your work! I support you with my all 😁
This game is the deffintion of AMAZING! You've put alot of time, work, money on this game. The hard work has payed off. Now this game will forever be the first & always will be the first realistic Dragon game!
The fact that all this is made by one person is just mind boggling this looks absolutely amazing and fluid and I’m just baffled keep up the good work i cannot wait to buy this when it comes out
When I see this, I think about one of my favourite PS2 games - Dragon Rage. Playing a dragon is absolute satisfying. It hits a nerve that really likes dinosaurs and dragons. I really think about support you for this. I sent this to a friend and he has the same thought as me: We want this full released some day. I whish you the best for this project!
I cannot wait to play this once you finished it. Every new update you give you show how much you improve! The sound is amazing! The visuals seem so natural and flowing❤
Looking amazing! Lot of work put into this so far and it shows ❤ It's a pleasure to follow along the Dragontwin journey and watch the progress, whatever time it'll take to get to the final result.
WOOO congrats! This is a huge milestone! From the first few animation tests from months ago to this you can see just how much better the quality has gotten! You are a gem! You are so freaking good at your craft, and I seriously hope you are enjoying the process and arent stressing yourself at all!
It's so stunning. It looks like you actually put your heart in it and i would love to be a patreon - but well i need the money for my horses and dogs ^^ Even now when the vet coasts are so hight i need to watch out. But when the game is out i will gladly pay for it! I wish you all a relaxing christmas :3
The sounds, the music, the PETTING THE DRAGON??!?!I'm sold! I hope there is a consideration for multi-player in the far future, I'd love to fly my dragon with my friends and destroy armies together like the conqueror himself.
This is ALMOST the perfect game I've been looking for. Being the Dragonrider instead of the Dragon itself is that problem, but this still looks amazing.
I am going to have to support your Patreon because I love how your game looks and have been following it on Discord for a few months since I found it. Super stoked to watch this game come to life and play the full thing some day! I've always wanted a game where you could actually fly around unrestricted, since playing Divinity 2: Ego Draconis ages ago.
I've been following along for a short while but it's so great to see this game coming together. It looks great, the sound is incredible (the noise of the wings and the background music!) and even the main menu looks nice. I wish you all the best and I will keep my eyes open for a hopeful release on xbox in the future (cries in console player 😂) but seriously, I wish you all the best for this game!!!
Im also excited for the dragon customization too! Im going to have mine be a 4 legged dragon, and color it black with green eyes (if eye color is possible) in inspiration of toothless from HTTYD
I am SO going to make my Curse of Strahd DnD character (or at least as close to a dragonborn I can get in the character creator) riding on her Lord Arganvost’s back, into battle against Strahd’s forces of evil.
I just hope the game has a deep, meaningful story. No matter _how_ beautiful a dragon-flying-simulator it might be, if that's _all_ it is, it's going to get boring before long.
how is it this game looks more polished and 'clean' than a lot of other indie games that are in early access or hell, even triple AAA games? This is absolutely beautiful, amazing job! cant wait for the ground combat, i want to smack people with my dragon's big meaty claws!
Love the inclusion of the little feature box going "1 cool feature, 2 cool feature, EPIC THING" hahah, hope it keeps that energy and vibe with the actual things, love it haha. Also is it me or has the flying animation gotten better since the earlier videos? Wing membranes especially look less flowy and more stiff, wich is what youd be expecting for giant leathery wings. Awesomely done

Hello, I was wondering if you would need any help with constructing a game manual/ other instructional content for players?
Will the game the have a story or campaign, plus quests

0:35 You can pet the dragon??? Already a 10/10.
Beat me to this XD.
Sound design is one of the biggest factors I look for in games, and so far Dragontwin has been NAILING IT, this is so cool!!
The music has a very HTTYD sound to it in thus videos
This is the game I ALLWAYS dreamt of playing when I was a child it’s so awesome!!!
So looks so so good! And that right wing flap at 1:01 is perfect. I've never seen such beautiful wing movement from any other games. I can't wait for the early access to drop so I can fly around on some relaxing music.

Those loading times were insane. God tier programming

STOP I CAN'T WITH THE PETS 🙈🥰
I am wholeheartedly so blown away. & impressed! everything feels so whimsical & the music aligns so perfectly.. gosh, im at a loss. cant waaaait
Insane work brother, you are feeding got and hotd fans really well
Pats for dragon, that made me smile! 🥰I really like the fire flare/ glow to the title menu. I can relate to how much work is going into this, building something from scratch, but you're doing a really amazing job.
The control is very nice
The graphics are awesome
The OST is amazing
The designs are crazy
Man you really cook
Keep going man I follow you from Saudi Arabia and I am very excited for this game
This just looks incredible. I have no other words, amazing work ❤
Hello!! It is so incredible!😮 I am so Happy to see that all your efforts for this game begin to pay. You have all my respect and i wish you will continue this way. I know there is a lot more to do but be proud of you and your work! I support you with my all 😁
Such gorgeous flying machanics, love that you can pet the dragon 😭
This is unambiguously one of my top ten most anticipated games of all time.
gave me chills! the flying sequence seemed straight out of a movie!
This is incredible, I’m in so awe i cannot describe it, well done mr!!
Already?! Man, this game is FLYING in production!^^😉
Fly, Dragon, Fly High
Above the clouds, into the sky
Fly. Dragon. Fly High
Close to the sun, scaleshine.
This game is the deffintion of AMAZING! You've put alot of time, work, money on this game. The hard work has payed off. Now this game will forever be the first & always will be the first realistic Dragon game!
That MOTION, that PHYSIQS, that SOUND
It's like a dream, but now you can control it, damn
The fact that all this is made by one person is just mind boggling this looks absolutely amazing and fluid and I’m just baffled keep up the good work i cannot wait to buy this when it comes out
Incredible. Every sound has such a punch to it, exactly what you want to hear in an engaging main menu.
You are absolutely nailing it! I've been *quietly* following your progress since the beginning and this is already beyond impressive.
When I see this, I think about one of my favourite PS2 games - Dragon Rage.
Playing a dragon is absolute satisfying.
It hits a nerve that really likes dinosaurs and dragons.
I really think about support you for this. I sent this to a friend and he has the same thought as me:
We want this full released some day.
I whish you the best for this project!
This game will be the first I support. It's just that good
I cannot wait to play this once you finished it. Every new update you give you show how much you improve! The sound is amazing! The visuals seem so natural and flowing❤
Ahhhh, I can't wait for this game! It looks AND sounds so good!!
Keep up the amazing work! Looking forward to this!!
Looking amazing! Lot of work put into this so far and it shows ❤ It's a pleasure to follow along the Dragontwin journey and watch the progress, whatever time it'll take to get to the final result.
Sheer Magic..... animation on the dragon looks great, and the sound of that wind will take everyone's breath away, great job so far...
It's almost hard to believe this is real, the quality here is just top notch
Damn, the way the sound of wings blows away the smoke of the Draconic logo is fucking nice 👌🏻
This game becomes more and more beautiful as the days go past, wonderful progress
Good! It's pretty good at first, and the graphics are amazing.
You've created something really incredible and beautiful here. Unique amongst all other dragon games. I wait eagerly.
WOOO congrats! This is a huge milestone! From the first few animation tests from months ago to this you can see just how much better the quality has gotten! You are a gem! You are so freaking good at your craft, and I seriously hope you are enjoying the process and arent stressing yourself at all!
The graphics and sound design are so beautiful!! :D
I love how heavy and sluggish the movements are, it really feels like how you would expect a big dragon to fly
It's so stunning. It looks like you actually put your heart in it and i would love to be a patreon - but well i need the money for my horses and dogs ^^ Even now when the vet coasts are so hight i need to watch out. But when the game is out i will gladly pay for it! I wish you all a relaxing christmas :3
I can hear myself saying Dracarys, truly OUTSTANDING work
Niiiiiiice! Really says "You're going on a journey."
Looks great! remember people will always complain or want to hate. Good stuff
The sounds, the music, the PETTING THE DRAGON??!?!I'm sold! I hope there is a consideration for multi-player in the far future, I'd love to fly my dragon with my friends and destroy armies together like the conqueror himself.
This is ALMOST the perfect game I've been looking for.
Being the Dragonrider instead of the Dragon itself is that problem, but this still looks amazing.
God the sun rays through the clouds and the sound design! 😍 I’ve never wished I had a pc more than I do right now 😂😂
I'm waiting on steam!
I am going to have to support your Patreon because I love how your game looks and have been following it on Discord for a few months since I found it.

Looks absolutely amazing! Well done! I can’t wait to see what you do in the future.
This looks so amazing! I have been waiting for so long for a good dragon riding game. Please bring this to the PS!
Looks incredible!
Beautiful as always!
I can’t wait! Amazing video and loving the work so far 🎉
Love it! I'm excited to try it out! Keep up the good work!

Bro is cooking real hard FROM EVERY ASPECT 💀❤
Im also excited for the dragon customization too! Im going to have mine be a 4 legged dragon, and color it black with green eyes (if eye color is possible) in inspiration of toothless from HTTYD
looking good brother, This is a very good first look, I hope to see it when it's complete.
My goodness this looks amazing! This is well above AAA quality! Just need the Targaryen Dragonstone lair and Daemon Targaryen on Dragon Back!
Unreal, I wish you guys all the best of success
SOOOOOOOOO excited to see where this goes! Will do my best to be there for early access to try this out, your work is incredible
the spin at the end was so cool! so excited for this game
Absolutely stunning
This game looks so, so unbelievably cool.
I am SO going to make my Curse of Strahd DnD character (or at least as close to a dragonborn I can get in the character creator) riding on her Lord Arganvost’s back, into battle against Strahd’s forces of evil.
Yep my computer will die if I play this but it’s cool and I’ll gladly subscribe this is awesome
Amazing, keep up the good work!
So god damn incredible, I cannot wait to get its Ultimate Edition and every single collectable!!
Wake up babe, Dragontwin dropped another video
This is absolutely beautiful!
I just hope the game has a deep, meaningful story. No matter _how_ beautiful a dragon-flying-simulator it might be, if that's _all_ it is, it's going to get boring before long.
I always get excited when I see a new upload
Love it, everything
Even yur broken screen :)
The fact that this is coming out of a non-AAA studio is absolutely mind boggling
Oh yeah, it’s all coming together!
how is it this game looks more polished and 'clean' than a lot of other indie games that are in early access or hell, even triple AAA games? This is absolutely beautiful, amazing job! cant wait for the ground combat, i want to smack people with my dragon's big meaty claws!
I am in love with this game
It’s so beautiful!!!
This one and Wings of Dawn are the two dragon games I'm eagerly waiting for. I love dragons, and ir's gewat to finally see some good dragon games.

Magnificent! 100000/10
OMG This is fucking awesome, IDK about the price I'll buy it when released for sure
Pet the dragon. It really likes it!
Lets hope this one won't miss its potential like Century: Age of Ashes did.
I don't have a PayPal so I would able to support only after it launch on steam. I love the beauty of this game ❤
ドラゴン撫でてあげるの可愛いじゃねぇー？(๑>◡
keep it up. amazing work...
Love the inclusion of the little feature box going "1 cool feature, 2 cool feature, EPIC THING" hahah, hope it keeps that energy and vibe with the actual things, love it haha. Also is it me or has the flying animation gotten better since the earlier videos? Wing membranes especially look less flowy and more stiff, wich is what youd be expecting for giant leathery wings. Awesomely done
Im not a PC player....but ill wait however long it takes for it to come to console. This looks amazing
I Hope this game on ps5 too…!
Awesome. Hope there will be some life in the world. Cities we can burn to ashes. Villages. Or castles we can ruin and make them into our own neste.
You can pet the dragon, 10/10
Will this game cost and how much when it's released? Truly amazing work btw, fr sends shiver down my spine, it's so perfect-
This is awesome.
