Title: Gamescom Coverage
Post by: lilmanjs16 on August 28, 2012, 00:38:20
Thought it would be nice to start a thread that people could contribute to for news coming from the recent gamescom. So far I've found an interview that includes a couple other people, but does have a lot of nice info on Knytt Underground from Nifflas.

translating the website via google translate or something similar is a must as its not in english. If anyone has found more stuff about the game from gamescom please share!

I just stumbled across this:

Nifflas' part is mostly on page 2.

By the way, guess who the guy in the green shirt on that photo GrayFace posted is ;)

An article featuring Nifflas, where he talks about the amount of secrets in the game:

Another piece, where not much is new, but we get to se a Linux and a Mac screenshot:

Er,  they said on the PlayStation Universe site that KU is hand-drawn. Twice. But unless I'm seriously deluded, the graphics are photos and silhouettes, right? Other than the characters.

That secrets article is a bit more spoilish than I'd like... Nothing to do with the main story, but still, if I come across the secret where

Its a combination I'd say... Photos mixed with digital art. But the handdrawn probably comes from Knytt Stories' this level is unfinished.
