Niffelheim is a 2D action exploration game in a Nordic fantasy setting, with a huge hand-drawn world.

• Huge open world of ancient burial mounds and gravesites, sinking players into the world’s darkest corners;
• Beautiful hand-painted visuals with astonishing levels of detail.
• Four playable locations, each with its own unique look;
• Great freedom of action: explore a world ruled by ancient spirits, complete priests' quests, battle foes and conquer territory in the struggle for supremacy – the possibilities are virtually limitless;
• Uniquely implemented random generation of the underworld with endless dungeons and caverns swarming with extraordinary creatures and monsters as well as countless treasures;
• Struggle for survival in a ruthless world of treacherous spirits: gather resources, hunt animals, build up your stronghold, craft unique items, weapons and tools in workshops;
• Unique character development system based on demon sigils;
• Shrines and charms allowing you to tame an ancient force and triumph in the battle against fierce demons;
• Various game modes: single player, PvP, team and co-op.

Well i just tried the v0.9 isodemo.

First, the artwork is beatiful. The gameplay itself is very similar to for example Kingdom. Just not as simplistic as that.
You can level up several skills, can build different buildings (workshops, greenhouses, defenses, etc.), craft things, harvest mushrooms, tame animals and of course kill things.

The controls are still rather wonky though. For example to enter a building you have to press the movement-down key, instead of the logical movement-up.
Or if playing with the mouse, the game often stopped doing the action. Worked fine when using the keyboard though.


As the dev plans to stay in EA for ~1 year, i'm very sure this will turn out like a very nice game.

These are the worst controls I have seen in a long time. Game has potential but the devs seriously need to rework the whole control/movement/animations scheme
