Tengist (pronounced "Ten-jist") is freeware game made for the purpose of testing gameplay mechanics and features for future Gamerstorm releases, it is somewhat similar to Firefox’s “Nightly” or Thunderbird’s “Early Bird”.

Report RSS Tengist has been released for Mac and Linux!

That'll be the last I'll put out until at least February next year, due to a heap of college work I've been given to do over the holidays...

I have finally released a (slightly updated) build of Tengist for MAC and Linux (I hope I have the archive formats right...), it includes some fixes and improvements. I won't be releasing a Windows version of the build, though, I'm waiting until I have all (or at least most) the reported issues fixed, I'll be (hopefully) releasing all 3 versions of that build simultaneously.

That might not be for a while, though, as I have been given a truck load of homework from my college to do and test to cram studying for over the holidays (because it's not like anybody does anything during Christmas anyway, right?), so I don't have time to work on my games for until well into January, and I had the next build of Tengist scheduled for then, but it looks like I won't be able to make that deadline now.

By the way, I would like to thank everyone who played the first build and gave feedback, I've learned a lot about my game, and I have already fixed some of the most major problems that plagued the original alpha!

By the way, just letting youse know, it's pronounced "Ten-jist", not "Ten-gist", it was the first thing I mentioned on this page, but amazingly, everyone still got it wrong!

Player moves way to fast, jumping feels wierd.It just hovers for a while or the roof just block it but when the player hits the ceiling let the player fall. Enemies have to much health or weapon are weak and it is slow at shooting, and you probably already know the gun clipping. Guns can feel more fluid or strong(visual like sway or a bit of camera recoil).
