About

Cobysoft Joe, who you can just call Joe, is a multi-disciplinary artist developing a visual novel set in a monster-collecting RPG known as Dome-King Cabbage. Originally made for a game jam, Dome-King Cabbage was a small project that Joe would solo-develop after school while he taught English in Osaka. It has since spiralled into a genre-bending, medium defying work— incorporating warbled beats, psychedelic 3D visuals, and rich prose. Joe's expansive vision has leaked beyond the medium of games into other spheres of art, including gallery spaces in Japan and the US.
