Sounds awesome. I kind of wish it didn't look as bright or anime-ish as it does, but I still wanna play it. Hopefully I can get it before Sega destroys it with its C&D beam.

What I see I like. The art direction is, however, a bit more suited to Dungeons And Dragons: Tower Of Doom/Shadows Of Mystara though. Don't get me wrong, it looks beautiful... but it somehow doesn't quite feel like Golden Axe IMO. Will download to have a better look at it.

I like it!!! I'm glad that there are so many talented people out there who are getting into the trouble of making games like this one and share it for free!!! :)

Who's that big guy with the mace?  

Anyway, it looks interesting.  Some of the art direction reminds me of Golden Axe for the PC-Engine, which is a mostly weird version.

My favorite Golden Axe game was the arcade version which never appeared on any console; Return of Death Adder.

Dammit, I wished this damn thing would come out already.  >:(

Also, I had only heard a brief mention of this on an Ameristar commercial, but didn't find any info until now. Anyone seen this?

It's a great game, especially for a fangame!  Could use a little polish, though.  Enemies in particular just don't seem to die if you're using melee, and especially if you're Tyris.  A weak level 1 mook takes about 5 full-melee combos.

Just played the game last night and I am a little disappointed with it. Mainly with the gameplay. I was at the final stage when I was confronted with a very large gap I had to jump over. Couldn't do it. A regular jump nor a running jump could clear that gap. I also didn't like the combat as it took to long to dispatch the foes. They had no life meter so you couldn't see how much damage you were doing to them. It was just for the bosses. All the other GA games had life meters for every foe, why not this one? like the character animations though. That is a strong point IMO but the glitchiness of the game that I just mentioned is what kills it for me. I think the programmers need to go through the game once more and "Fix" those bugs and other things to make the game more enjoyable.

Tyris Flare looks like she should be standing on a Thai street corner.

We're used to unlimited free respawns, so the idea of paying to be alive once more is just .... Great game. I was never a big fan of fighting games, .... GOLDEN AXE: Even after delivery was available,
