Enjoy the trailer.
'Dungeon Hero takes you into a real dungeon, one where a shadowy evil has come to feed on despair. This a dungeon at war - not a place with bags of gold just lying around! This action RPG uses Firefly's dazzling HD engine, allowing the player to storm heroically through underground halls while taking in the detail and complexity of a world previously unseen. Master melee, ranged and magic skills and 'Close combat' a totally new, brutal mode of fighting as you battle your way through vast crowds of monsters. Fight alone or have a friend drop in to survive - and maybe even save - the darkest society imaginable.'
MyGaming's Tarryn van der Byl writes: "Although gamers assume that gaming journalists spend most of our time sitting around playing free games in our undies and cashing big cheques from publishers for favourable reviews, the biggest part of the job is actually writing about games that haven’t even come out yet. Or, in some cases, never turn up at all, despite all that time and effort we’ve put into telling everybody about them."
Hmmm...not sure why the poster of this article used the challenger explosion as the image header. I mean I get why but thinks it's kinda sucky...:/
The list missed out The Grinder as well. That looked like an awesome game. the Wii's answer to Left4Dead. There were gameplay videos and everything, I couldn't wait to play it and now years later nothing has come of it.
Now, here comes Firefly Studio's Dungeon Hero. This is NOT a game where your budding Hero goes down into a dungeon in order to garner fame and haul some wealth back to some village or town. This is a setting where your character strives to become the Hero of the dungeon's _residents_. That is, to save and serve the Goblins that built the dungeon in the first place. (What? You think all that stone got carved out on it's own?) Like every other flipped-over fantasy RPG, the dungeon dwellers are provided substantially more depth than you would ever see in a regular fantasy RPG.
G4TV writes: "Firefly Studios co-founder and lead game designer Simon Bradbury gives the latest news on their upcoming action RPG, Dungeon Hero.
Unlike many dungeon-based titles, where the player's perspective is based on the protagonist, this title focuses "from the perspective of the inhabitants" which are the goblins. As the "hero", players will explore a dark and gritty dungeon, occupied by an underground society of goblins and other mythical creatures lurking beneath the shadows."
cant wait to try it
Looking good can't wait till I get my hands on this one
You see the shadows? Looks good!
Did anyone else think this trailer for it had an ambiance similar to Oddworld?
i guess there's only a 2 player coop?
Looks pretty cool :D
