They've also announced the release date of their next game, Sundered, which launches on July 28th. It's become a more common thing in the last few years, for developers to give away a permanent free copy of an older game for a limited time, to gather support for their new title—I love it!

About the game
QuoteJotun is a hand-drawn action-exploration game set in Norse mythology.

In Jotun, you play Thora, a Viking warrior who died an inglorious death and must prove herself to the Gods to enter Valhalla.

Explore vast regions of Norse Purgatory to find runes to unleash the jotun, giant Norse elementals. Fight them using only your massive two-handed axe, the blessings of the Gods and your skills!

Jotun: Valhalla Edition features the brand new Valhalla Mode, the ultimate battle against even fiercer versions of the Jotun! A true challenge for those who wish to impress the Gods!

I'll have to check that one. Didn't know it existed until now. Maybe they can convince me to buy their next title at release :-).

I can recommend this, but beware that it gets damn frustrating at times. Expect to die during the boss fights. A lot.

Thanks for reminding me :)

By the way Thunder Lotus Games latest game looks pretty good:

Already got it ;-)

In the last year I got a few other games through this method. It has my enthusiastic support :D. Don't know when I'll be able to play it with my horrid internet, but this is good.
Kimyrielle Jul 16, 2017
grabbed it! :)

I think I already had it probably from some humble bundle (?). But this prompted me to download it so maybe it will escape the backlog.
Shmerl Jul 16, 2017
Got it on GOG. Graphics look very good and artistic, I'll check out the gameplay and story.

Someone mentioned it on Samsai's Friday stream.
Got it then.

I bought it back in March as part of a bundle, still haven't played it yet, looks like I'll have to get to it soon, Sundered looks pretty good too.

I bought it as part of a humble bundle also. Still have not had the chance to try it.

It's pretty good, about 5 hours worth. The exploration parts are okay (about 4 hours), but the epic boss fights are where the meat and most fun is. Great boss design, very challenging, but fair and fun. You can clearly see the learning curve with each boss and each time you will progress more and more till you finally beat it.

Are there any differences between Valhalla edition and ordinary version?
lucifertdark Jul 19, 2017
According to the store page Valhalla edition is a new harder mode, with more powerful monsters. One of these days I'll get round to playing it.
