We played a lot of multiplayer matches this week to record footage to our brand new video overview. The video shows what Son of Nor is about and what players can expect from the game.
After playing all those matches we ended up with a long list of things to fix and improve. More about that in our next dev diary! For now, enjoy our new video and don't forget to go HD!
Are you, by any chance, the same guys who made Eclipse (the HL2-mod)?
Because the gameplay mechanics were pretty much the same (apart from the terraforming), and I ******* loved it.
Thanks Theon, but no. We're not the same guys and cannot claim any of their reputation :-) I wasn't even aware of that mod. But I love HL2.
Looks fantastic! Will there be any other elemental abilities other then fire?
Yes, there will be fire, wind and something we call "essence". Those elemental abilities will be able to interact with the environment and be combined (fire with wind and so on). If you throw a fireball into sand it should produce pieces of glass you can then use as projectiles and so on.
Wow! The artwork looks amazing, and the gameplay elements are really well implemented! And on top of all of this you're adding co-op? Take my money.
I've been following progress for a while now and it keeps getting better and better. Keep it up!
Thanks guys! A lot of the gameplay elements seem to be working and fun when playing. We're tweaking things here and there but basically I think the gameplay is really cool. Now "all we need to do is add all the content" lol :) This'll take a while ;) But fear not, there will be weekly dev diaries.
Looks gooooooooooood :O
