A downloadable game

Riders of Asgard is a fun and challenging Viking BMX game. Unlock new maps and gain access to previously unreachable places by completing Challenges and earning Stat points to upgrade your rider. Riders of Asgard will feature a full single player campaign as well as local mutli-player modes to take on you friends.

Riders of Asgard is much more than your average run-of-the-mill, Viking BMX game. It's a historically correct Viking BMX game, with historically accurate Viking bikes and locations.

JayRod says he doesn't know what he is doing, but we think he is doing pretty well - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBU47clEAH8

Version 0.0.4 is now out for Windows 32 and Windows 64. The Linux and Mac versions will follow shortly.

There have been some minor bug fixes and tweaks and as usual please tell us what you think.

Version 0.0.3 is ready for release and we are busy pushing the packages to the various online distribution channels. This version includes a lot of changes but most importantly includes local multiplayer (via split screen) and an easier level.

We have listened to all the feedback received so far and we think we have addressed all the items without comprising on the game play. Currently only the Windows versions are ready, but we will upload the Linux and Mac versions through the course of the next few days.

Just check the version number on the main screen to ensure you are using v0.0.3. As usual, send your feedback to support@gobbogames.co.za

From a simple rolling ball, to a slightly less simple set of shapes vaguely resembling a BMX, take a look at how Riders of Asgard went from it's inception to a Bone-cracking Viking BMX game!

Riders of Asgard has come a long way to where is is today. We have gone through various changes, and have tried to include the community everywhere we can. So please join us for a quick look at how the game came to be.

We have been hard at work preparing the Multiplayer system and getting the Leaderboards integration ready for Riders of Asgard. We now have some screenshots to show you of the work done so far.

If only the Vikings had poured their energies into BMXing rather than pillaging the world would be a very different place.

Thanks for the video. 8-}
