There’s a bit where you fight inside the body of an old nidhogg worm as it writhes around that I’m pretty proud of. “The art that I enjoyed making the most was for the swamp level, which is one of the fancier stages. Cartoonish characters explode in a splatter of candy colored blood and bits that leaves you simultaneously grossed out and giggling as you dash past the pile of goo that was your opponent to throw yourself into the Nidhoggs’ gullet. The result of Toby and Mark’s collaboration is a unique style that fits the games’ dark, squishy humor. I think it ended up somewhere in between. A lot of Mark’s reference points came from classic video games, like Castlevania, Yoshi’s Island etc., whereas my style is a bit goofier, influenced by cartoons and claymation. “So I actually found it a really difficult process coming up with an art style that’s worthy of a Nidhogg sequel, and it took quite a while to arrive at one that we liked.” Says Toby, “Early attempts ranged from stiff and boring to overly silly and puppet-like. Toby admits that translating his oddball style into something that would work with c reative director of Messhof, Mark Essen’s classic video game ideas was more challenging than it first appeared. Toby not only works on pixel art, but he is also a talented sculptor and uses his creations to animate wacky claymation characters. Toby’s work is vividly bright and visceral grossing you out at every turn. The new cutely, grotesque art is the result of the hard work of animator, Toby Dixon. Where once we had low res graphics, that left a lot to the imagination, the newest game is freaky in how much is looks like Simpsons characters battling in a nightmarish landscape where everything is fleshy and toothsome. This week, Messhof Games released the second installment, Nidhogg II, and the game’s gotten a huge overhaul, with new environments, characters animations, and the highly request addition of more weapons! Now players can enjoy facing off with throwing daggers, axes, and even bows and arrows. Whichever player manages to cross the screen and get to their goal first, is rewarded by being devoured by the Nidhogg, the aforementioned giant flying pixelated worm. Nidhoggs’ simple mechanics gave players the ability to learn the game quickly and focus more on their strategy. In it players did battle each other in four different side-scrolling levels, doing their best to reach their goal at the opposite side of the screen while dodging, parrying, and possibly killing the opponent in their way several times over. The size of these sleeves is good for Standard cards, like Magic The Gathering, Pokemon and Force of Will.Frantic fencing, the screams of the defeated, and giant flying pixelated worms dominate the original Nidhogg a one-on-one horrifying fencing game.
