    I like the slim and clumsy swamp-ogre-undead-like-thing at the bottom, with the mossy stuff on its hunchback. Ha, wait a minute – are those reddish and slobbery swinging pixels supposed to be … nipps?*

    *Please answer yes anyways, otherwise I embarrassed myself in the interwebs.

      I didn’t read your comment first, and that’s what I thought as well. Those are some gross, saggy swamp tits.

    • the swampy ogre thing does have dangling flopping boobs πŸ™‚ i’m not really sure if they’re man boobs or regular boobs… ogre physiology is confusing!

    I just love how the skeleton is trademarked a pirate now thanks to stumpt xD honestly to me it looks more like a gladiator, but I can definitly see why you can look at it as a pirate too ^^

      It’s a pirate. He has a little hat.

      • InsaneSeishiro

        yeaaaah I see the hat, but to me, it just looks more like a gladiator because of the shield ^^ the other things are: his wooden leg = leg armor, his hat: a open helmet, even when the rest of the world tells me itΒ΄s a pirat, for me he will always be a gladiator ^^

          It has a sash and a sabre. Definitely a pirate to me. But hey, those little pixels give our imagination lots of options, righto :-3 ?

          Reply
          • πŸ˜€ yeah it’s fun watching peoples different interpretations of the pixels- there’s a lot to be said for leaving that room for imagination, and usually people imagine details much cooler than i was planning πŸ™‚

    so is the hero going to just be a guy or is it going to be a button to switch it to a girl? im not going to use it but just wondering

      I think that is a good idea; more options make more players happy! πŸ™‚

      Reply
      • it would be really cool to do a female option πŸ™‚

        until all the gameplay is nailed down though, aesthetic things like that are taking a back seat to all the mechanical stuff

  5. I wonder what the third one is? It looks cool with the hooked-blade-spear weapon. Is it soppose to be a satyr, you know goat-man?

    Reply
    • you know i actually never decided myself if those were horns growing form his head or if he was wearing some weird crown thing with gold horns on it πŸ™‚ i guess it’s up to you!

      the intention is a wild shaman/witchdoctor creature… maybe with some kind of voodoo powers…

      Reply
      • Oh cool! I thought the legs were goat legs( plus the tail and horns) but my first thought was a demon then I saw the tail and then satyr pop into my head.

        Maybe it’s a mask with horns! You just never know.

    Barney, if you were against David in a game of crawl, who would win? The other two players would have some sort of AI. Also, at about what time will the game come out? My party starts at 6:30 EST. Will that be ok?

    Reply
    • haha well dave has been beating me a lot recently- while playing against the bots i developed a fancy new technique for the boss, but when i try to use it against dave he always fakes me out making me do my trick too early and he kicks my ass!

      definitely need to adjust my strategy!

      as for the exact time EST i’m actually not quite sure what the deal is with steam- does it launch soon as the clock passes midnight to the new day? i should be able to figure it out and get back to you!

      Reply
      • turns out the steam page has a thing counting down exactly how many hours til the game unlocks πŸ™‚

      • Barney, you and David should do a video of you guys playing crawl on the last day of the release or something like that. It would be AWESOME! (btw like what you did with kourok and humanity stolen thing awesome!)

        Reply
        • oh man, that WOULD be awesome!

          i did download some streaming software a while back and did a capture test to get the hang of it, but I still have no idea what I’m doing with that stuff til I do a propper live test πŸ™‚

          gah, it would be fun to give it a try- pribably not going to happen hehe but I’m nearly finished the trailer, so when that’s done I might have time to test some real streaming and see if it works okay!

    Do you guys ever think this will be co-op also rather than just Local co-op? I really wanted to play this with a friend… but I can’t (different countries). It would be sooooooo cool. Games awesome nonetheless.

    • we’re definitely looking into it! online play is a big feature so it might take quite a while with such a small studio, but we would love to bring the game to people who don’t have access to friends in the same room!
