Birger's NWN Blog-Archive

Hi again, long time, eh? ;)  Just wanted to tell ya that I just submitted my Memorial Stone to the Sea of Stars Kickstarter game .  What's a memorial stone, you ask? Well, as a backer of the game (which I am) on specific backer tiers, you got the opportunity to design a grave stone with text that will be placed in a crypt within the game. I pondered for awhile what my memorial stone text would be and then it hit me -- of course, my NWN-modules needs to be honored. I mean, these modules are also ours (yeah, I mean you ;) ), since you too have a relationship to them after having played them. So, in a way, this memorial stone honors the memory of the adventures we've shared together in the NWN-modules that I created, for both you and me to enjoy. 💗 Here's how the memorial stone (with it's text) is going to look like  within the game : Sea of Stars is heavily inspired by Chrono Trigger and other similar 90s RPGs, so if that's your cup of tea, then be sure to wishlist ...

My swedish pals at YCJY Games (they also made The Aquatic Adventure of the Last Human ) just released their latest game, inspired by Lovecraft ian horror! I'm a Kickstarter Backer for both this game, and for The Aquatic Adventure of the Last Human, so I'd really appriciate it if you'd like to check out their new game . :) Here's the Steam description: Sea Salt is a dark fantasy reverse horror action-strategy game where you play as the nightmarish force of Dagon by controlling and growing a horde of minions.

Did you know, that one of Bioware's leadwriters for Dragon Age, David Gaider , no longer works at Bioware? Do you know why, this necessarily isn't a bad thing anymore? Because he and some collegues of his, has formed a new studio called Summarfall Studios , that recently released a crowdfunding campaign for their first game (the name which you can guess from the titel of this post) -- Chorus! I love Gaider's work, so I just decided to become a backer, myself. 😊 Can you guess the genre for this game? Well, since it's Gaider, you can start by checking RPG , that's a given. Awesomely written dialog and dialog choices? Check. Romance? Check. But can you giess  what the main genre is? They've actually invented a completely new genre ---  adventure musical . Check out Chorus, watch the trailer and read more on Fig (and maybe become a Backer, just like I did?) Birger out. 👊

It's bloggin' tiiiime! 😜 This week of Digital Design has been pretty tough, to be honest. I've had two bigger examinations (exams) and one re-examination. Right now, I'm studying Graphic design for websites and Interaction design and creativity . Even though it's been tough, it's also been fun. 😀 I always feel very satisfied after having submitted a larger project. And tired. Very. Tired. 😫 I'm glad it's weekend now. 😉 I'd like to share with you a Kickstarter-project for a 2D action RPG & Persona style game  that I came across earlier this week, called Spleen . I really love the artstyle and music for this one! The game reminds me of Kingdom Hearts , a lot. The game-developers has also made  hand-painted watercolor backgrounds!  😍 So, if you have some spare cash, then I'd recommend helping these guys out! I'm going to do that myself, actually. 🙆 SPOTLIGHT-TIME: This week one of my fellow students, William Mauritzso...
