A project I read about on CreatorsProject was a game known as Nidhogg. The game is a design type project with well thought out mechanics. It is an action game where players duel each other in a fast paced match where tactics, timing and positioning are key to victory. The game’s graphics are made up of entirely large pixels. From the player characters to the environment this is a low resolution but complex combat.
