Title: Volgarr the Viking
Post by: Legend on August 22, 2012, 11:56:36 AM

Cool looking kickstarter game that looks like a 16-bit action platformer where you can be a bad ass viking.

Just thought I'd share since it looks pretty cool. Last 33 hours too.

Looks like golden ax meets strider in my opinion. If they reach the $50,000 goal then the game will have alternating paths like Castlevania 3.

I know! it looks pretty bad ass. Only 17 hours left. Not sure if it's gonna make that $50 stretch goal of alternating levels though. :(

  Well they hit just under $40k.

  I think I'm going to sip wine and beat Castlevania 3 tonight. :-)

Yeah, they missed the $50k mark, but they're still going to try to do the alternating level paths only in a somewhat lesser form. I'm sure it will still turn out cool though. I wonder if they can do a 2nd kickstarter to try and raise the last $10k?

Or they could end up adding it later after actual sales start.
