Studio HG, the one-man studio behind Smashing the Battle, is making a new action game about a small female robot named Rona called Metallic Child, and recently they showed off new art and videos of several new characters and enemies, including Rona’s very own creator.
The person in question is a genius scientist named Riana Kelly, who created Rona with combat abilities for reasons unknown. Studio HG also shared a look at Riana’s 3D model currently in development:
