Nordic Ashes Anniversary

Good day vikings!
Today we are celebrating 1 Year since we launched the Nordic Ashes Demo whoop whoop!! This will be a nice and lengthy post, but filled with love and positive energy ofc (and surprises).



And nothing of this would be real if it wasn’t for you! So we want to thank you once again for your amazing support, all your comments and great ideas! We are so happy to have been able to implement many of the suggestions you have made.



Many of you already know our team a little bit, but for those who don’t, we wish to introduce ourselves :D

We are Noxfall Studios, an independent team of 3 developers. Each of us specializes in one field but we also do a bit of everything else (copyrighting texts, managing translations, social networks etc). We’re happy to do it this way, that way we can manage everything from the inside and make our own decisions.

Axeldör, is the game director. He came up with the idea of this game after enjoying survivor games during this childhood days and later playing other games such as Vampire Survivors. He’s programmer and designer and is always thinking about new ways to improve the game and create new mechanics for every new character and boss.

Fengos, programmer and designer, will always be sure everything is perfectly placed in each realm. He also does a lot of testing, which is essential during the development.

Naya is our community manager, but on top of all, our 2D artist. Everything you see in-game has been drawn and designed by her: characters, enemies, props, UI… literally everything.



[h2]Anniversary Skins[/h2]
Oh, and the surprise… we’ve designed an exclusive skin for every character!! That means 8 skins total in this new update!

The way of unlocking them is pretty easy, you must beat 3 different realms with each character to earn their skin. And for those who have already played a ton, you will already have them unlocked automatically! We hope you really enjoy them as much as we do. It has been so fun designing them and bringing them to life!

We’re really curious about which one is your fav :D



[h2]Wallpapers[/h2]
Aaaand surprise number two! (because it’s always awesome to have two surprises instead of just one, right?)

Naya has made these beautiful wallpapers of each of the 4 first characters we released. If you click on the image, you will be able to download them in high resolution.



Ok I lied. There are more than 2 surprises. Some exciting news:

[h2]Nordic Ashes Artbook[/h2]
We are working on an Artbook!! Of course, there’s still a lot of work to be done, as we’re just halfway through the development of the game, but it’s finally coming together! It’s gonna be EPIC!



And last but not least (definitely not least, I’d say LAST AND BEST):
[h2]Gnöki plush!![/h2]
Wait wait, WHAT?! Gnöki plush on its way! So many of you have requested a Gnöki plush… and it’s finally going to become a reality!! We are working on the plush design already and we will be able to talk more about it in a few weeks. We couldn’t wait to share the news… WE ARE SO FREAKING EXCITED! Here’s the schematic of the plush… it’s so adorable OMG!!!

I (Naya) have already chosen the perfect spot for him in my room, just beside me next to my tablet, he will be my co-working companion, yay!!



Phew that was a long post, but hopefully you have enjoyed it :D

We really appreciate your kindness and patience, we are so grateful to have you here! There’s still a lot of content to be released. For instance, next week Helheim Realm will be officially launched. In the following weeks we will focus on improving every aspect related to performance, game modes, tutorials, etc.

Receive a warming virtual hug from the dev team!

Axeldör, Fengos and Naya
