Last week the Anima Flux team attended Nordic Game in Malmo, Sweden. It was a pleasure to come back to one of our most successful gaming conferences to get new acquaintances, meet old friends as well as influencers, gaming enthusiasts, and media representatives.
The 20th anniversary edition of Nordic Game Conference from May 21 till May 24 brought many brilliant speakers and attendees from all over the world. More than 2500 attendees on-site, and 157 speakers from different countries - that’s the main numbers of the past event.
Anima Flux took part in the speed game pitching, where about 30 gamedev teams had to present their projects during 1 minute. We were pleased with a special mention from the hosts, having highlighted our win in Pitch Battle last year.
During 3 days we showcased Anima Flux co-op metroidvania among other indie gamedev teams from European countries.
Around 50 players enjoyed the game either in single or co-op mode, sharing with us their feedback. The major part of the audience noted the key features, which are the visual style of the game and fun co-op mode.
The visuals remind them of old-school games in sci-fi setting combined with cyberpunk elements. This impression is enhanced with the synthwave soundtrack, which intensifies when battles become more intense in face of increasing threats.
As for fighting, it has become obvious that the combat system and controls are easy-to-understand, which proves the comfortable threshold of entry in the gameplay for wide audience. There were many opinions that it would be a lot of fun playing the game together in couch co-op, joking and enjoying the story, visuals, and battles.
We’d like to say many thanks to the hosts of Nordic Game for this experience! it will be wonderful to come back here next year!
Co-op Metroidvania PC/Console game Anima Flux will be released in Q3 of 2024, the Demo is available now on Steam.
