Not bad, I like how it looks so far. As long as you can make good gameplay, I think it will be a good game.

Thanks for all the comments so far - atm, Spike is working on the dungeon level and trying to improve the gameplay and I'm finishing the outdoor village level, so there's a great progress

About tyr - he lost his hand, not his arm - he lost one hand in the fight against the Fenriswolf, but that's all after our game. In fact, we're still thinking about a good story to explain that Tyr has both hands

looks interesting.
but the bloom "macht es matschig".

actually, the hand was bitten off during a challenge between the fenris wolf and the aesir(gods of asgard). they wanted to trap the wolf(who is actually one of Loki's offspring), but said they would free him if he couldnt break free of the binding(a lie). they tried several times to chain him up, but the wolf kept breaking free of the chains, so Odin had the elves that created the weapons for him, create an unbreakable material. this "silken ribbon", was then proposed as the next challenge, and the wolf suspected a trick, so he agreed to be bound again, but as a condition one of the Gods had to place a hand in his mouth. and if he was not freed, he would bite off the hand. so Tyr was the only God who would do it, and i guess we know the rest.

Great work for just two days !!
The look really fits the story/plot behind this project, I hope we can expect the same for the gameplay which shouldn't be to hard for you guys

Cheers

What does Tyr wear below his kilt?

Very awesome stuff for two days!

Can't wait for the first demo or screenshots where you rip thoses evil creatures apart.
The screens look indeed "soft" (puply?) but I like it as it looks better than all that sharp-edge gamestudio-look.

Keep up the good work and let us see more when there is more (no I don't mean what is underneath Tyr's kilt)

für 2 tage eine sehr sehr geile sache. hier wird mal wieder die augescheinliche limitierung von acknex deutlich: feuer-lichtspielereinen, schatten etc. könnten der szene zu so viel mehr stimmung verhelfen, aber es ist einfach (mit standard- und erweiterten mitteln, wenn man nicht grad matt_aufderheide heißt) nich realisierbar.

he wears something below his kilt, sorry. we got the model that way^^

okay, so there actually are a few here who know our mythology. i like that^^
and yeah, blink was not that wrong with his tale about his hand. but as sebe already said, this plays before this scenario.

we are thinking about a way to tell a nice story, but since everything is set in stone what happens and how this happened, this is not that easy^^

oh and for those of you who can read rune, there are a few nifty surprises written in some places^^

edit: @broozar:
actually, it looks pretty damn good ingame. you dont have to eb matt, you just shoudl not be lazy. shadowmapping and so on...

I like the game idea very much and the first screenshots look promising to me.
Will Tyr battle against some norse giants as well? In my opinion they would make impressive end bosses.
Are there any information about the fighting system yet?
