Came across this post from threads and Instagram. A game developer from japan Nanbu, who draws and makes games as a hobby. Really talented.
His current game in development is Land of Seidr a fire emblem or tactics other like game.

A weighty tactical RPG that follows the fate of the dying kingdom of Greusdal and the Horn people who live there, told through the eyes of their chieftain, Freyja.
In its combat system, ordinary attacks can damage every parameter — so even the mightiest unit grows weaker with each battle. With limited supplies and dwindling companions, you must make life-or-death decisions for your troops while always on the brink.
Music is composed by Yoshimi Kudo (formerly of Basiscape), with icon and other design work by Kuwhen, who also worked on Urban Myth Dissolution Center.

A programmer who draws
here is is intro:
Nanbu Yasumi南部休み
I work as a programmer at a game company, and in my spare time I draw and make games.
In the past I’ve written TTRPG scenarios and worked as a planner on the game Urban Myth Dissolution Center (都市伝説解体センター).
A programmer that can draw and makes games in his free times that is some serious multi talents.
The character portraits in his game are all hand drawn i am
not sure about the CG Artworks but music is from former Composer Yoshimi Kudo who worked at Bainscape (Hitoshi Sakimoto Music Agency)
Work on strengths
I feel work to your strengths. Looking at the first impression of his games it’s more art focus rather than game play innovation. Nothing new on the gameplay front it is a Tacrics Orge like game after all.
I feel the visual artwork is what is the main draw for his game.

Conclusion
Truly inspiring stuff and something Inhope to bring CG BOSS to with others.
I do belive now with AI assistance making products like games can be within reach faster for small teams
