Survivors of Ragnarök is a city-building-management-survival game about chickens.


Explore

Lead your company of dwarfs into high mountain passes, deep into dangerous forests, scorching deserts, and into the dark underbelly of the earth and back.





Raiders of Ragnarok

It's adventure mode with a cooler name. Reclaim your fortress, venture into the wilderness, explore other settlements, and delve into depe dungeons in search of rare and valuable artifacts in THE BEST rogue-like-platformer-rpg yet to be made.


Unique and Quirky Creatures

Encounter Bizarre and dangerous creatures from dwarf-eating-tiger-snails, flying pigs, bishop-fishes, and Chickthulhu (100% our idea and totally not suggested by an annoying community member named Thoktaz).


Yeah we know, it's awesome.


Gotta Catch 'em All!

Unlock dozens of unique dwarfs only to die by your hands moments later.

      

      

     

Single Player Campaign

With all the dry humor, charm, wit, and satire you've come to expect from us bundled in an epic historically accurate retelling of the events after everyone's favorite end of the world scenario (next to the zombie-apocalypse, but trust me we have that covered). Expect to be taking part in such epic and grand historical battles such as the Battle of Basing and the Battle of Svolder.

Bellow we have provided a historically accurate depiction of the Battle of Clontarf on April 23, 1024 (your gonna have to trust us on this one guys, it's legit).


Beautiful Hand-Drawn Pixel Art

Now this might just be our personal bias, but we believe we have some pretty sweet pixel art. Each and every pixel lovingly hand-drawn and animated frame by frame.

Yes. Yes. No. Ninjas. Yep. We know. Funny story. Yup. Mmhmm. Yes. We're sorry. Yeah. We promise. We love you too.

So according to the ancient Nordic calender it is still March (at least the SoR lre calender). Long story short; there was an intergalactic super-dimensional tear within the space time continuum that ricocheted Garrett and myself many moons forward.

Also a healthy does of procrastination on my part did not help at all. If you gentlemen really want the long winded version about school, work, finals, women, and the arduous endeavors of everyday life then we would gladly write a whole wonderful news post dedicated chronically our time in intergalactic super-dimensional hyper space.

So now that Alpha 17 is out what exactly is new? Well a whole lot. Aside from water physics functioning we also have our new crafting system working. And that is just a few of the many changes added into our latest build.

I think no one is here understood nothing of what is meant, no one is accusing them of going at your pace, no one is accusing them for work soon, but if you go to work soon, at least do not charge money and then not you communicate with them do not give explanations of how the game goes unfoldment, I think that's the minimum that is owed to people who have bought your game and trusted you, if you will not meet the minimum expectations do not sell, when I buy something I expect a minimum, this is an investment not a gift to developers and they have a duty to their investors to buy an alpha is not a gift is an investment.

if you do not keep up, do not sell your game, make a demo to promote it and play people, as many serious developers and then if anyone's going to be able to ask for an explanation ..

I'm going to also point out, that the way Desura calculates which games are most popular probably, has a lot to do with how much people are commenting on it.(I think, I really have no idea) So stinkytaco may be inadvertently getting SoR a bigger spot light.

Seconded. I'm not taking the chance that this won't launch on my hardware and the numerous commenters who fail to show sympathy for the people who do have a launch error lead me to believe Desura's portion of this game's community are anything but supportive.

That's not really directed at the developer as much as the majority of comments. "Don't listen to him, he's just one person" is not fair to that one person and I don't give a damn how small a minority someone is, they have feelings too, you know.

They are legitimate. He is complaining for a bug that is keeping him from launching the game.
1) It doesn't affect everyone (I don't have it).
2) It is just a small error in the launch script (at least on linux, can't speak for windows).
3) This is an unfinished Indie game. One guy is working on it. There WILL be bugs.
Look at minecraft. In beta/alpha it was buggy as hell and you paid much more then $5

Allow me to clear up some confusion. This game is in Alpha, ie far from the finished product ie if you throw money down on this, not only are you getting an enormous discount but you are getting the current testing version of the game (also known as an unfinished product).

This testing version of the game may or may not work, it may include certain features and may be missing others. It will also change as time goes on until it becomes a finished product.

The developers are nothing if not "legitimate" they do at the very least a monthly update regarding the game. They're human (all two of them that I know of) and will actually talk with their fans and customers (like they are now).

stinkytaco was acting very entitled and expected a finished product from an alphafunded game which is not what he should have expected and that is his own fault.

Calling this a scam was extremely malicious and uncalled for, purely because the devs didn't reply to him within a single day. If you want a finished product right now, then this isn't what you're after. If you're willing to pay a (large) discount now and are patient enough to wait for a finished product then you're at the right place.

Lastly the errors that taco was getting, I and the devs weren't getting, That's PC gaming, you can't test all of the hardware, it's impossible. And so the appropriate response would have been to ask and wait for the devs to fix it or offer to help them fix it.

If you have any more questions regarding alphafunding please go here - Desura.com

Oh, and the purchase is also referred to as a pre-order so yeah, that's a bit self explanatory.
