This game looks great! I would definitely buy it.

looks promising

by **internet** » 14 Jan 2013 05:54

it looks nice especially for an indie/ kickstarter game , and not a shooter always a good thing in my book

Got a little Xenoblade vibe from it.

I'll pass judgement when I see more of this and know what it's all about. Looks aren't everything, kiddos

. And/or when I eventually when I play a demo!

Not bad at all.... she looks as if she is running with something stuck up her poopaloop!

Too much bloom

I hope she doesn't actually run and move like that when the game is final.

Same thing I was about to say. The characters movement and speed seem off, but its a prototype, so eh I'm sure things will be tweaked.

YES! THANK YOU, ANIMA Game Studios!

I would expect nothing less from the developer of ANIMA: Ark of Sinners! You already have my money for your new project(no Kickstarter funding, though!)... I was losing hope in seeing your work on WiiU after the critics trashed-talked your previous game, but this is excellent news, now!

As for Ark of Sinners, itself, it is magnificent! Yes, it has some issues and some of them are annoying enough to put you off, at first, but given time, you learn to not even live with them but use them in your advantage, too!

P.S.: I didn't like that you used a so-similar to Ark of Sinners music for this trailer, too, though!

@Chased

Can you elaborate a little bit on this please?

All I heard about Ark of Sinners is that it's a wannabe Castlevania and that it sort of s*cks. I was first interested in it, but yeah, considering all the negative feedback I was not too sure.

What was so good about Ark of Sinners and what are the weaknesses?

Looks really awesome, but by the time we get it on E shop.....noone will care and we'll be once again playing catch-up

by **SDDMN** » 14 Jan 2013 17:12

This game...has piqued my interest, I'm keeping an eye on this.

It seems like it might either be an open world adventure style game, or an RPG game.

by **WesFX** » 14 Jan 2013 19:11

Is this funded already? The Kickstarter, I mean.

by **sdsichero** » 15 Jan 2013 04:30

The logo iooks like the tabletop RPG Anima. Is it the same property?

by **King_Dodongo** » 15 Jan 2013 17:41

Hoepfully we hear more from this game soon.

@thorn-rock

If this topic doesn't close, I'll post here. Otherwise, in PM.

No time right now, sorry!

by **thorn-rock** » 17 Jan 2013 05:25

@Chased

ok cool thanks ^^

@sdsichero

yes it is the same property, and they also made Ark of Sinners on Wiiware which is also an Anima game.

by **thorn-rock** » 17 Jan 2013 05:38

@WesFX

Apparently there are other ways to fund the game but the KS itself seems to be over.

What worries me though is that it's mentionned that the console release would only exist if they reach 200.000. So maybe they actually already announced it would be on the U and by console release, they mean the other consoles... but yeah, they made it up to 111k this far.

Reminds me of Alfheim portals in Bayonetta. The animations are pretty bad, though.
