Is Inti-Creates still working on the game?

There's a game coming out called Indivisible, made by the Skull Girls people. Maybe that's what they meant? As far as I know there's no information about Inti leaving Bloodstained's development.

But isn't it just slightly weird that only Artplay's logo is shown and not Inti's?

The current developer DICO didn't get their logo shown on the trailer too, so I doubt that'll prove anything.


gunlord500  That's what I'm thinking right now too. The main develop team has been switched to DICO as everybody knows, then Inti mostly is responsible of graphics (Mr. Yuji Natsume) and some of the music (Mr. Ippo Yamada), and they probably have already got these done.

I was planning on linking that answer he gave, and I don't see it as vague personally. "We’re working with Inti Creates the same way we have been all along" is pretty clear to me. They're still involved, but the other two groups are doing more work in the current and later phases because of Unreal. There's no need to make a controversy out of it afaik.

I'm fairly sure it's more complicated than that.

I don't think Inti-Creates, as a development team, was ever scheduled to work on the project from inception to completion.

Maybe it is best to clarify it here. Inti Creates is not involved in the main development of the Bloodstained game, but they are involved in the prequel mini-game. Part of the vagueness is to avoid unneeded attention and negative speculation. So yes, they are involved but not in the main game since last year's E3. DICO has picked up the development from where they have left off under mutual agreement.

A lot of parties are involved so it could be quite confusing. ArtPlay is the main developer, while we are hiring DICO as a third party developer. We created the game design, story, direction, gimmicks, and the overall production of the game while DICO creates art assets, design levels, and basically filling in the manpower ArtPlay doesn't have. In the future, you'll most likely see 505 Games and ArtPlay credited on trailer videos and articles to come out.

Ah, the speculation ends! Finally some official word on this. I'm sure this will also mean we will have less Ippo music, but perhaps more Yamane music. That's OK to me, but I'll always wonder how he could have contributed more.

My personal opinion is that the farther away from Inti the project is, the less people can point at MN9. That can't be a bad thing. This is exciting news!

I am happy with the clarification, it makes sense. I don't think that it must have effect on Ippo's contribution to the soundtrack. Also, he may have already composed enough music for the soundtrack. I don't really know his music, so I am mostly looking forward to new compositions by Yamane She is the main artist here, if I understand right. Another name was in the mix, Jake Kaufman (virt). I also liked to hear that the prequel mini-game is in development, too.

The prequel in general are going to ROCK XD

Tribute to the 8bit and 16bit. And there is nothing wrong with both chiptune-alike feel but also "original / modern". Perhaps it is time to make a request list for Inti Creates on the prequel? This is awesooome!
