    Yer Ma's the Elden Lord! We beat our 21st run in style, defeating all the base game bosses, taking down Malenia with 17 health left (my lucky number!), and absolutely crushing the final boss rush. Long live the Battle Axe! Run 22 / Battle Hammer starts on Thursday :)

    #Goingforthbyday game design is based directly on authentic art history that is researched and vetted, then created by us, by hand, digitally. Main player weapon, the real "Battle Axe of Baki" center, the sprite on the left. Main player right with shield. #gamedev #handdrawn #oc #godot #indiegame

    Battle Axe is an overhead action game that is very reminiscent to something you would find in an arcade! Its a challenging but fair game that has you pick one of 3 characters to fight evil with! Plus this game is co-op! Sadly no one to play with on my end. Lets beat some game!

    Fifth quest completed! This one was too easy, although the mage almost died when opening a trapped chest! And they were lucky, killed the gargoyle in one hit! (Dwarf has a 4D Battle Axe) #heroquest #boardgames

    Starting off with #1: Bloodforged Battle-Axe This is my favorite card in the entire game of Magic. Something about it replicating itself and imagining a creature holding a bunch of axes makes me happy. Also this version includes my favorite flavor text.

    I asked some friends to scrawl a page of faux queer bar bathroom graffiti based on Can You Host? and I want you all to know this is a fully valid submission. It's a good game. For the record, I Natalie Pudim, am Battle Axe 4 Fizzie Boar Fizzie Boars, slide into those dms #tittyrpgjam

    Dark Souls 1 Soul Level 1 run COMPLETE Honestly not as rough as I was expecting. Most issues were regular DS1 issues just slightly worse. Chaos Battle Axe is my beloved. Boss Difficulty Tier List -Bed of Fucking Chaos, as usual -O&S -Nito + Four Kings -Seath for that OHK breath move -Gwyn

    Yes, love Mercs! We even got to work with the game's musician (and Capcom legend) Manami Matsumae on another game of ours, "Battle Axe". 😄 Good luck with the run!

    Imagine that, a 2D Terminator licensed game that isn't terrible! Also the first licensed work from the developer of Xeno Crisis, Battle Axe (with pixel art by Henk Nieborg) and Final Vendetta! 🤔

    There is Battle Axe, but it's pixel art rather than 3D (I haven't played it, it has mixed reviews for being really hard) store.steampowered.com/app/1167300/...

    Final Vendetta for under $6 on Steam! While Bitmap Bureau (Xeno Crisis, Battle Axe) is busy with the Terminator 2 and He-Man and the Masters of the Universe licensed games, why not try their Belt Scroll Action Game? You'll find a fundamentally better game than TMNT: Shredder's Revenge!

    The awesome thing about Battle Axe is that it IS a newer game meaning we haven't lost the art of doing sprite-work as good as old SNK or Capcom, but we definitely should be highlighting games that look like this as examples of where we can go with things stylistically.

    Final Vendetta at a steal for these prices! The Belt Scroll Action Game by Bitmap Bureau of Xeno Crisis, Battle Axe, Terminator 2D: NO FATE and the upcoming He-Man and the Masters of the Universe: Dragon Pearl of Destruction! Consider it a warm up to their licensed brawler, I guess?

    3d render: Dane Axe (v1) Early days yet: No proper textures; geometry needs a bit of a tweak so it'll play better with smooth shading. There's a recess in the axehead, where I'll put an inscription. #blender #3d #axe #battleaxe #daneaxe #dane_axe
