I went way out of my comfort zone to create this album -took me several months in evenings to finish it. I'm nervous sharing it because it has been a private creation for so long, but here it is. I hope the story brings at least 1 person joy. #indiedev #music

I understand why it exists, but I LOATH playing fighting games online. They were never meant for that. I rarely play them anymore even though it is one of my favorite genres. Its somewhat ok-ish if there is no other choice.
Shoulder to shoulder is the only way.
Fight me.

Im not going to share # 's, but Volgarr I, a 10yr old game is still out performing Volgarr II, came out last year. If you're a fan of the games, I'd like your help in figuring out what you believe I did wrong that caused this? Honesty counts. I need to fix this before the "next" thing. #indiedev ❤️

It would have been really awesome if Volgarr II reached 100 reviews on Steam. That would make me super happy. Even if its not your favorite game I would love to hear from you. Please share this with your friends. :) #indiedev #pixelart

Volgarr the Viking II for $10 on Xbox, ehh? Rise again warrior! MOAR Totally NOT Rastan Saga except with those design sensibilities from 3DS Shinobi (2011); makes sense as Crazy Viking Studios was founded by some of the ex-Griptonite staff behind that game.

Obscure 2D arcade brawler send-up Volgarr the Viking. It's like if you mixed God of War with Ghosts & Goblins, viciously difficult & high-APM for what it is.

Fun fact, i never finished Volgarr the Viking and I'm still pretty satisfied with the purchase.
Its okay if a game ends up being too much for you. There no shame in leaving it unfinished once you had enough.

"One" of the greatest aspirations you should have for yourself (as there should be many), and this is one of the hardest in life to achieve, is to have the kind of work (or thing that brings you a paycheck) you look forward to springing out of bed to work on. 1/3

It's also worth noting that two of the employees, Taron Millet and Kristofor Durrschmidt(@volgarr.bsky.social) split from Griptonite games to form Crazy Viking Studios and release one of my favorite hard-as-nails platformers of the 2010's, Volgarr the Viking. With Volgarr 2 recently released in 2024

With the first new Shinobi in more than a decade, I just want to give a special mention to Shinobi on 3DS. A game so severely overlooked that even a good chunk of Shinobi fans ignored it or were unaware it existed for a time. And that is such a shame, because it's one of the best of the series.

That box art is to die for : nothing beats that Conan/Master of the Universe artstyle from the 80's.
Brings me back to these "Fighting Fantasy" books, with their covers full of promises of heroic adventures.
