Ominous Project Odin Speculation Thread

Wee folk?
Midgets?
Height-challenged people?
Scottish Pygmies?

 

How about Vulcans?

 

My mum?

 

Mums are supposed to play the game not be in the game... aren't they?

You must be playing as the trestle overlord, ruling over an army of diggles which go to fill the land with gold-plated trestles.

 

Gaslamp pioneers the exciting new genre of Trestle defence.

 

civ/economy builder RTS?

 

Wait, you guys have a Muscle Diggle to negotiate deals for you?

 

I love the "it has graphics" bit and the "It should not have been successful" text on the slide.
And you guys seem like decent people (I mean, you appear to have a sense of humour; that's always a good sign).

Age of Empires 3 sans-military and with some pre-Industrial Era touches, topped off with just a hint of zany Dwarven artifice.

 

I reckon, with the concept art and all, that it's going to be a little bit steampunk-y.

 

Yeah, I hope they do it the good way. Well done steampunk is 'wow awesome', but quite a lot is 'ewk lame'. (sorry)

 

Likely completely off-base, but my first thought was "whoa, mechanical steampunk SpaceChem?!" (=
