| Description: |
FreeVikings is a 2D platform game very strongly inspired by Lost Vikings (a very nice commercial game from early nineties).
Goal of the project is to make a new free game playable and enjoyable as the old commercial one. Of course it will be better than it's ancestor one day... :)
What is it about? A thousand years ago there lived three viking friends in one norwegian village. They were kidnapped by Tomator, a bad man from a foreign world. They escaped and returned home, but later their sons decided to find Tomator, kill him and bring his head to the Thor's temple.
Currently the game offers 5 or six levels (not so good as the original ones of Lost Vikings), several kinds of enemies and items.
