Estyx Games

I would grob a few drinks with it, no doubts.

You would be surprised as to how funny mythology is in general when reading it. If instead of knowing that, for example, Thor has a big hammer and wields the thunder, we knew the stupid stuff he did on his journeys around his land, nobody would see him that serious haha. Myths are great in general.

I prefer the original one but I understand why people would ask for the new one. It's also an accessibility feature, so it's not a bad move. Though if you ask me, I would do the new one as an option, with perhaps a pop-up earlier in the game mentioning that you can change it. Well done anyway!

Both are cool actually. In one, you show the sun as only element, which is good. Second one is obviously more polished and has more content in it, highlighting the destructive power with the beam. But it's not necessarily better. If you ask me, I'll go with the old one. Both work anyway, well done!

Minotaurs rock! A clear display of 'hey guys, do not mess things up around here, or else...' hehe. Nice stuff, happy to follow your project! Anything myths-related is always a pleasure to me! Hope the development is advancing smoothly!

This week I have been mainly working on character sprites and dialogues, so no real finished stuff. Maybe I can share an outdated model for our game banner. The final version is much better though!

Stay tuned for more about Forgotten Pantheons!

My game shouldnt be scouted for bugs yet, there will be quite some!
Recently started playing Darksiders 3. The character can swim in water. Certain very thin layers of water are used as wall puzzles, but game assesses it's water, so you can swim up a mostly solid wall with luck. We wish, hahaha!

He even unfolds the legs to the ground after it, so if you wouldn't tell me, I would have said that it was a feature hahaha. What I mean is that it doesn't look buggy, but more like unfitting.

I've considered adding a small portrait to dialogue events during an encounter. I will see how it matches the overall flow of a scenario dialogue, it shouldn't hurt.

But one thing Forgotten Pantheons will have is dialogues, a lot of them!

They look really cute, and each of their own! So little amount of pixels, but definitely each of them has something unique! Fantastic job, keep it up!

I think this is the dream review one wants to get. If I ever receive one like this, I'm sure gonna smile, cry, and jump around, all at the same time. There's too much invested in making a game, and we do not very often receive comments that acknowledge that. 'Deserves to be played'...wow...Congrats!

Not everything works well on the first try. For example, this model has just been recreated into a much better one (and I bet you can wonder why!). But I'm saving old models for some future laughter.

Only the best stuff for Forgotten Pantheons!

Cool one! I'm a fan of mythologies, and I didn't know about the Huallepen, so thanks for sharing it! Also, looks really cool as a mix with a well-known mastodon such as the minotaur. Pretty scary, if you ask me! Good luck with the development!

Definitely some pretty effects there, amazing job! Jealous to see such polished things around, but also happy to see people create amazing stuff for players. Will have a look to Curse of Cards, looks like not only fun but also enjoying with the visuals. Thanks for sharing!

I like both, but I think if you do a blur effect, it makes much more sense to use the centered one. Having it on the side, and then having all the center blurred feels strange. So either center blurred or side non-blurred, I would say. Anyway, they both look polished and well crafted, great job!

Something new about Forgotten Pantheons: the soundtrack. I am composing it by myself, always trying to create an epic audio experience that merges well with the mythological atmosphere. Here's a WIP of one of our first chapter's tracks.

Difficult to say, but I understand why you did the changes to the new system. But a part of me prefers the old one, most likely because your art in the cards is better displayed there, and makes it easier to pick and drag. But the new one looks smooth as well, and somehow more polished. Nice job!

A skill we people with lots of obligations will love using hahaha. Think about it: you make people play your game even if they cannot be 100% focused on it. Not the ideal gaming experience, until you realize they really want to play the game, no matter the restrictions! Cool animation, well done!

Probably what most of us would love doing: a cozy and quiet place to write how we feel, either in general or after specific events. I think monks might find things like these very comforting; seeing how they progress in tasks, how they struggle sometimes, and simply letting things flow. Great job!

Myths are built on impossible choices and the 'lesser of two evils'. Like those legends, in Forgotten Pantheons you can endure trials and find a way to continue your journey. For now, time to celebrate your victory! ⚔️

Really cool game! The type of game I would without noticing that my tea got cold, and my food was burnt haha! Physics-based games really have something enjoyable.

Oh and thanks for sharing it for free! I mean, why not like $3 or so? Are you only focused on learning from the experience?

Really nice work! Really pleasant to the eye (the triforce colors are always a good choice for visual impact!) and the tentacle-like effects look really cool. Keep it up, the gaming world needs artists like you who experiment, learn, and provide human-crafted goodness.

Hi! We've had a lot of localization work recently (oh, if anybody needs Spanish localization, let us know!) so updates are coming slower, but Forgotten Pantheons is still up and running!

What would you like to know more about our game? Leave your comments!

Cool monster designs, I'm sure a lot of players will appreciate the more feral aspect of these, something distinctive somehow in the genre. Good luck with the project!

Welcome to the world of 'Oh wow, it looks cool!'. A nightmare, if you ask me, because there's no stop to good animation ideas hahaha. Anyway, looking really nice! Great job.

Looks really nice! All sounds are very well combined and smooth on transitions, even when changing fast between them. That's some fine work there, which I am sure you are improving even further. But you earned me with the background sounds: wind, water drops, echoes...Very finely tuned! Magnifique!

A really cool project, indeed, glad I have had the chance to follow you back to get to know more about Godscale. Count me in as a follower, all myth-related stuff sucks me in. Also cool that you share those devlogs, Im sure people will enjoy them a lot!
Wish you all the best with it!

Let's reveal another small aspect of the gameplay in our game Forgotten Pantheons: the stages. These are the places where individual events of a chapter take place. Background in stages are all hand-crafted (see attached WIP).

Follow us for more updates!

It has this vibe to a more realistic version of Roboquest, a cool gme that I enjoyed a lot. Even though it's not my style at all, I have to say! Good luck on the road to success with it!

Not usually reacting visibly to posts in Bluesky but I promise the first thing I did after checking this was saying out loud 'Ewwwwwwwww', hahaha. Amazingly detailed, well done!
PS: Can we just skip talking to this guy, maybe...? That would...be...really cool...ewwww
