Armikrog

Overview

Armikrog is a point and click adventure game by The Neverhood creators Doug TenNapel, Mike Dietz, and Ed Schofield. All three are veterans of the animation industry, Dietz and Schofield's production company Pencil Test Studios will again be involved.

The game utilises the same pixelation, clay style animation found in some of their previous efforts such as Skullmonkeys and The Neverhood.

According to TenNapel, Armikrog is a spiritual sequel to The Neverhood in terms of style, aesthetics and gameplay mechanics .

In May 2013 a Kickstarter campaign was started for this game and the game eventually surpassed its $900k goal and received $974,578, securing a Wii U version via stretch goal.

Plot

The game centers around Tommynaut, a space explorer who crash-lands on a planet called Spiro 5 and ends up locked inside a fortress called Armikrog. He is accompanied by his talking dog named Beak-Beak, who is color blind and has the ability to fly.
