Son of Nor

Son of Nor StillAlive-Studios Short game description "Son of Nor" (SON) is a 3rd person Fantasy RPG. It’s a mage-only RPG, which plays mainly in the desert and its main focus lies on being as dynamic as possible. You cannot just move objects arbitrarily around, but you can alter your environment. You can change the terrain via terraforming magic, and you can summon spells that can be combined in a very intuitive, innovative way. It’s easy to learn and simple to control, however there are so many things you can do that it can be quite difficult to master. The game itself supports single and multiplayer modes. You can play via LAN, Internet or locally on splitscreen using controllers. There will be a variety of different play modes, from simple death-matches to cooperative invasion which can be thought of as a tower-defense-like-mode. The first version of Son of Nor is going to be released around Q4 2012 supporting both the single and multiplayer arena modes described above. Afterwards an addon to the game is planned, which will add a singleplayer and coop-storyline. The story itself and the entire universe of SON are mostly done already.

This is the LAST dev diary before the release on March 31st!

9 days from today, Sunday 22nd! YEEEAH!

The release will be THE most important event in the game's 3 years of development! Please spread the word on Twitter, Facebook, download one of our Facebook banners. We got really cool ones with 2 more to come: http://sonofnor.com/community/

Our focus has shifted towards promotion. Julian had some interviews and flew to San Francisco last week for a promotional tour. Chris is working on the 4 release trailers that will start appearing this coming week.

Because it's fun, Chris will appear on Hot Pepper Gaming, where he'll talk about Son of Nor but first has to eat a super hot pepper. Join in, we'll link to the video once it's out!

Curse's gamepedia will be the official place to go if you're looking for tips, secrets, tactics, or where you'll gradually find the location of all the collectibles. Curse hosts our official Son of Nor Wiki! http://sonofnor.gamepedia.com/Son_of_Nor_Wiki

What's our next project? We're already working on a new game at stillalive studios. Follow us on Twitter (https://twitter.com/SASGames), Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/stillaliveStudios) or subscribe to our YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/stillaliveGameStudio) to see what's next!

Son of Nor Focus Trailer #2. We're diving into the magic system. The video starts with a scene containing voice-over, which we're proud of as a small indie team.

We recorded it in a professional studio in LA with voice talents that spoke for Diablo 3, World of Warcraft, Mass Effect, Naruto, and we even have the guy voicing the Prince of Persia in the Sands of Time trilogy. Enjoy!

Cool. This thread is really long and with the game actually being released soon, maybe think about updating the first post if you have that account or starting a new thread because not everyone that clicks here is going to read through all the development.

In our 3rd trailer we focus on all the peripherals supported by Son of Nor. We had lots of fun experimenting with and implementing this awesome gear.

Of course Son of Nor is primarily played with mouse & keyboard or game controller, but if you like experiments, being on the edge, these gadgets are for you! And Son of Nor supports them!
