Action Platformer ‘Oddmar’ Coming this Spring from ‘Leo’s Fortune’ Developer
In an exciting turn of events the same developer behind the 2014 WWDC Apple Design Award-winning game Leo’s Fortune and MobGe have announced not too long ago their latest upcoming game. Dubbed Oddmar, the game is an action-adventure platformer drawing inspiration from Vikings and Norse mythology and will be released as a premium title for iOS devices this Spring.
Players take on the role of Oddmar, a Viking who has a hard time amongst his people and is trying to become worthy of the afterlife’s great hall of heroes, Valhalla. At one time during the story a magical mushroom grants him new powers, and then Oddmar is offered one final chance to redeem his potential on an epic adventure. Oddmar features 24 handcrafted levels of physics-based puzzles and platforming challenges. All throughout new friends and foes are encountered along with boss battles for a little challenge.
The game’s story is written by Frank Gibson, the same person behind the The Amazing World of Gumball comic book series, and narrated by Julian Casey who is featured in Assassin’s Creed. Oddmar‘s music was composed by Pär Svensson, which incorporates Nordic folk instruments to fit the game. In terms of a price point, Oddmar will launch for $4.99 USD with no in-app purchases which is nice to see.
