Tiny Thor [Game Showcase]

Unleash the bouncy power of Mjölnir in this retro platformer. Use the mighty hammer and many other power-ups to travel the realms of Asgard. But watch out! Some mythical creatures will do everything to stop Thor from growing up.

Players must guide the eponymous little hero through a vibrant 16-bit world, brought to life with lovingly animated details.  Explore Norse mythology in this classic platforming adventure, all to the accompanying backdrop of an amazing soundtrack.  On their journey, players must survive various frenetic battles all tied together with small puzzle elements, all the while manipulating their throwable hammer to learn new tricks and discover creative solutions.

  • Mjölnir – With nothing less than Ragnarök itself at stake – the Norse end of the world – everything comes down to putting Tiny Thor’s mighty weapon to good use.  A single skilful throw of his hammer can be enough to defeat multiple enemies at once.
  • Classic Platformer – On his heroic saga, Tiny Thor learns to use the standard panoply of platformer abilities, such as double jumps, dashes and wall jumps.  With each additional unlocked ability, players will learn to pilot the little hero ever faster through the various levels, discovering new ways to overcome obstacles and defeat enemies.
  • Tiny Thor’s Enemies – Over the course of their adventures through the different realms, players will confront a host of unique enemies which need to be defeated with their newly learned skills.  In particular the boss battles, each with their own mechanics, will demand creativity and dexterity to defeat.
  • Norse Realms – The 16-bit pixel art in over 30 levels was handcrafted by Henk Nieborg, an industry veteran with previous titles such as Lionheart, Contra, Shantae and Battle Axe under his belt.  Players explore the three major realms of Norse Mythology: the hostile environment of Midgard, the tricky technological tunnels of Svartalfheim, and the chilling cold chasms of Niflheim.
  • Puzzles and Secrets – Tiny Thor’s hammer can do more than just flatten his enemies.  With a bit of brainwork, players can solve small and sometimes mind-bending environmental puzzles to unlock various secrets.  By collecting the hidden gemstones in these secrets, they can unlock seriously tough challenge missions.
