Cool concept, promising trailer
That intro!Northern Shadowis a first-person role-playing game in which you rebuild a lost kingdom, literally, and then go out on adventures while a steward keeps everything running smoothly back home. It’s also being made by two people, which is as impressive as it is scary — though they seem to be doing a commendable job so far, based on this trailer.
Admittedly, I would’ve liked to see more moment-to-moment mechanics in the video instead of environmental flybys, but as an introduction, it’s sufficient. One of the developers has beenanswering questions on reddit, so head there for more in-depth information.
The game is targeting a summer 2014 Steam Early Access release. It needs togo through Greenlight first, but that’s not going to be an issue given how lax Valve has become with approvals.
