3D Dot Game Heroes Foam Sword Competition

Hello dear blog readers, Rob Burman from SouthPeak Games here. Hopefully you’ll remember I was here last month to encourage everyone to create a hero using the online character creator for the explosion of retro goodness that is 3D Dot Game Heroes. The contest was extremely successful and we had entries from across Europe. A big thank you to everyone that entered, but unfortunately only five people can be the extremely proud recipients of a massive foam sword and a copy of the game. So, without further ado, here are the lucky winners:

This character was absolutely fantastic and I can’t begin to think how long this must have taken. In fact, we didn’t even know this much detail was possible in the creator. I’m going to go out a limb and say this must have taken 100 hours to make.

I love dinosaurs, so this entry was my personal favourite. It’s a good job I didn’t mention on the blog that I like dinosaurs otherwise everyone would have created a raptor. In fact, this entry inspired me to create a dinosaur as my character in the game too!

We had a few entries from Jasmin and they were all of a very high standard. The hair alone in this hero is a piece of art. In fact, this entry inspired me to die my hair this colour…

We liked this one because it was more of a classical knight – like something out of Japanese anime. You can imagine this hero tackling giant lizards or angry robots…or perhaps that’s just my imagination running wild.

Hey, who said Arnold Schwarzenegger could be a character in 3D Dot Game Heroes? Shouldn’t he be busy imposing ridiculous tax laws in California? Oh…it’s not Arnie, my apologies. Still, it’s a very good hero and we liked his big grin.

Anyway, hope you like all the winners as well. By the way, as a reminder, if you’ve got a copy of 3D Dot Game Heroes remember to create a character using the in-game editor and then email it to ukoffice@southpeakgames.com because it could potentially appear as an official downloadable hero on the website www.southpeakgames.eu. Until next time, stay retro my friends.
