Odin’s Defense

Odin’s Defense’s core gameplay takes place in a Story Mode campaign across 5 biomes. Play as Odin’s son, Vidar, and lead your allies across this fantasy world, vanquishing wave after wave of enemies from slimes, to spiders, to skeletons and more!

The game combines 2D and 3D elements to create a top down tower defense experience with a twist. Instead of upgrading towers, Odin’s Defense encourages you to equip towers with powerful items to create unique builds and combinations to defeat enemies. The game places heavy emphasis on choices and narrative to keep players engaged and to ensure replayability. No single playthrough will look the same!

This game was awarded the Jury Spotlight Award at the Gotland Game Conference 2024. Whishlist Odin’s Defence on Steam.

The Social Grip: Llama Drama

The Social Grip: Llama Drama is a second-person perspective stealth game and is a continuation of last year’s The Social Grip. Almost every part of the game has been given a close look and is being updated. In each level players will have to switch between the security cameras to move the main character Dan around. Players, will have to think carefully on when and where to move and how to avoid the guards patrolling the levels. The original grid-based movement has been replaced with more responsive point-and-click movement. Our art team has also taken a close look at last year’s art style and are working on an improved art style. Finally, we are planning to introduce new mechanics and goals such as collecting evidence and hacking into elements of the environment.

The Social Grip: Llama Drama was awarded The Almedalen Library Award at the Gotland Game Conference 2024.
