We wanted something special with the start up screen in Trine 2, so we made it playable. Nice right? Well it also changes depending on when you play the game. Night scene at wee hours and day during school and work. So check out the video about how it was created and try it out in the game. -Mikael

Bonecrusher is the newest addition to the Trine 2 enemy repertoire and was recently introduced in the new GamesCom Co-op trailer. In this video we show you how this gnarly beast was made, all the way from the concept art to something that you might not want to meet in a dark alley. -Mikael

This Level Art video is from the tutorial levels and more specifically the one that introduces our female lead, Zoya the thief. It’s a night level so the end product is fairly dark, but in the game this shady town looks pretty incredible. -Mikael

Pontius the Knight. The royal ale provider of the kingdom. His humble abode is a serene farm with pumpkins so big that Cinderella could have had a yacht instead of a carriage. When Pontius is not off on his adventures, he takes pride in maintaining his tiny ranch in top condition and tends to his various livestock/lunch meats. After all, he has a certain armor size to maintain. This video is a little look at how the farm landscape was put together. -Mikael

This round in the “Making Of” series we are looking at a new skill that Amadeus will have in the sequel. Throw Goblins into spikes to kill ’em or chuck the carcasses around just for fun after, just because it looks cool. Either way, our Wizard is going to be able to help out a bit more now with this skill. -Mikael

All games have glitches and bugs. Good ones have very few of them, but it is impossible to go without any. Sometimes bugs are accepted as a part of the game, thus becoming features and some even work as a point of inspiration for something totally new and exciting. In this video we take a look at a small glitch where boxes are dropped at a rate that is a bit too fast, so they end up making a very cool looking explosion. This will be fixed for the final game of course, but somethings just need to be shown, […]
