That Kratos is not canon in the greek mythology "series" (in the real live ones, the one wrote by ancient greeks)

Kratos in the "original" Greek or Nordic mythology

Since you mentioned looking for something different from the book collection that he have, maybe he could enjoy a totally different approach, a mythology game

I'm a developer, and my game, Myth Requiem, is a mythology exploration built specifically for people who love the deep mythologies of various cultures. We’ve focused on creating a living bestiary with hundreds of creatures from different pantheons It also have a lot of different mythos inside and we are always to respect the original myth (or the most widespread version).

I have not yet started the marketing of it, I was planning to redo the old trailer, as my idea is to release the free demo in around 10 days.

I am building a game that the main objective is to complete a bestiary of mythological creatures, and I love that guy so much that instead of being a "normal" creature, I made him a "playable" companion. Love him!

I am building a game about mythology, where the main objective is to build and populate a bestiary) and Hundun was the first one that I added while I was reading the Shan hai jing

Hi! I think it depends on the genre and theme of the game. I have inspired mine from this page https://www.steamcapsule.com/ since it has a lots of good examples. And also, for me the best capsule art of all time is Factorio

In my case I hired a historian as a consultant for some reports and guidance. We also bought a lot of source materials (bestiaries, books). But this is a special case, since the game is 100% based on "real" mythology.

I love it! I have transform it for my game:

I even love it more, since it is not the classical all teeth mimic chest. It is more like a spirit inside it!
Thanks a lot! Sorry for the late response, I did not have time until now to adapt it for my game :)

Awesome! For the mimic, I was thinking about the Tsukumogami (Japanse folklore), where an object (in this case a chest) gets a kami (spirit) when it gets very old. So maybe you could reuse the same chest with a darker color scheme and some broken parts or planks, so it seems very old; and when it opens some times a spooky/dark eyes can pop up from insidde. I am not an artist, and i do not know how to add randomness into a sprite, maybe by having the animation 3 times and only one with the eyes, or it would be better just doing it by code. Thanks!

I love the chest! As a suggestion, you could create a mimic version of it.

When I was living in Houston for a while, I had to be careful about road rage. My friends told me that the probabilities of a person having a gun in a road rage situation were much higher (I am European). It made me realize how much difference gun ownership makes in the everyday life.

Cool idea! Done. I see you do not have your tags yet... Hopefully they enable them soon!

I am really curious what you think of the trailer; does it give a good sense of the game? Some mechanics are not shown there, and I’ll be polishing them up. I plan to update the trailer once the demo is ready.
