Cross of the Dutchman is an action adventure game based on the true story of the folk legend 'Pier Gerlofs Donia'. The story takes place in medieval Western Europe, in the province of Frisia, near the turn of the 16th century. Though Pier and his family lived in peace, the world around them was changing for the worse. Saxxon legions were invading nearby villages, making the lives of the native people next to impossible. On one faithful day, Pier got involved with the Saxxon oppressors, escalating the situation for the worse. The events portrayed in this great adventure caused Pier to gather a band of farmers and form a front against the oppressors. The acts that followed made Pier into the legend he is known for, the Cross of the Dutchman.

The other tool didn't allow for easy blending between multiple terrains. Erik has spend quite some time on it and today we can show you the results :). We're now able to create beautiful tiled terrains. Our tool supports multiple tiles sets, which can easily blend into each other. It also has the option for random tiles in order to break patterns.

Looks amazing! Sometimes I forget how cool toon-shaded textures/models can look. Great job!
