Selected for Tokyo Game Show 2026 “SELECTED INDIE 80”!

Physical TRAIN has been selected for “SELECTED INDIE 80,” the indie game program at Tokyo Game Show 2026!

Physical TRAIN is a physics-based digital railway diorama where you can freely run trains through a world inspired by model railway layouts.

In this game, trains do not simply move along invisible preset paths. Instead, their wheels rotate and roll on the rails to drive them forward. The game is set in the Chamland Republic, a young nation developing in a mountainous region. Across routes with a variety of scenery, including mountain lines, cities, and harbors, players take on freight and passenger transport missions while contributing to the growth of the railway network and the country.

Bringing trains to life by having their wheels physically roll on the rails has been a much greater challenge than I first imagined. Even so, I have continued refining the game through many rounds of trial and error, aiming to make the trains run stably while capturing the beautiful movement of an entire train consist.

At Tokyo Game Show 2026, we are planning to exhibit the game and offer visitors a chance to try it in person. I look forward to meeting you all at the event!
