Description ===============================
Pealkiri: KanalΓ΅ks
Title: Chicken trap
Tools: drawing tablet, GIMP + GPS
===============================

Forces of Evil encounter Forces of Good in a dark dungeon. But before arms can clash, both sides face a rather serious obstacle - the chicken trap. Whoever steps into the small ditch on the floor, will be magically turned into a harmless chicken ...

This work looks like a tribute to the game "Dungeon Keeper." I think the game quite much stood out amongst other similar games, opposing widely used theme "be a hero, beat the monsters and save the world".

Can't say I am very happy with the overall result. I tried isometric view this time, but didn't manage to draw all the characters according to the view. But I learned a bit about Gimp Paint Studio and it's brushes, so I guess it wasn't total waste after all

I love this game, and I wanted to find a bunch of dungeon keeper fanart, but there is not a lot of it. I love this one, great work man

Yeah, the game was really awesome, and this be-a-dungeon-lord-instead-of-a-hero concept made it really a unique and captivating piece.
I wonder whether game's contemporary successorsΒ War for the Overworld Β and Dungeons Β follow the same spirit.
btw, thanks for the !

Good question, I played both, War for the Overworld and Dungeons....Dungeons is quite more modern game, but it has a very small content...there are maybe 7 maps, and it too repetitive...War for the Overworld is less modern, but still pretty, but the mechanics and everything is nearly same as in Dungeon Keeper so its very cool game... I like it 300% more than Dungeons...

Those chickens are unbelievably dead on a grand scale.

Why do you think so?

Orumon In reply to kalaadrius [2011-08-13 08:00:02 +0000 UTC]

Because it's dungeon keeper. When aren't chickens dead.

kalaadrius In reply to Orumon [2011-08-13 09:12:51 +0000 UTC]

It depends. When chickens manage to stay inside the wicked chicken trap (like in this picture), there is a fair chance that they won't be eaten - everyone who tries it, will end up being chicken him/herself ... So the only threat for them is the keeper. But I'm sure the keeper has better things to do than mess with the chicken

even before reading the description, just looking at the picture reminded me of Dungeon Keeper. Great Game. Great Job!

Yooooo this is sick! your a top dude man, this was one of my favorite games on PC, played DK2 aqswell but it doesnt compare to the first one, the second one was ridiculously easy too.
I used to love slapping them chickens to explode!
And collecting gold was soo crazy, i used to hoard that, torture and cap the badguys! make tons of dragons! But my favorite has t be the ultimate bile demons, they were ROCK

I agree that DK one was better than DK2. I think DK2 had some nice "bells and whistles" like cutscenes and slightly better graphics, but in the variety of gameplay, it did not offer much improvement. There were less creatures in DK2, which I consider the major drawback.
Thank you for the comment

najmulosmani In reply to kalaadrius [2010-11-04 12:33:07 +0000 UTC]

yeah much less creatures, and you could make them elite units by designing the rooms according to wahts needed to summon em. Man once you get an elite angel, thats basically it, you are invincible. Just cast posess on it and then you can kill pretty much everything, i swear i beat near all the main bosses in 1v1 with using possess. Inface even DK1 possess was a bit overpowered somehow, if you didnt use posess then most likely the unit would die, bu if yo cast poses you ca pretty muc kill anything, so dumb man.

So wish they made a DK3 there not a game in the market like it at all!

Yeah. Although, there are some current attempts to revive the game, for example - a Chinese company is developing Dungeon Keeper MMO ([link] ) and a German company develops something quite similar to DK ([link] [link] ). The future will tell, whether they manage to compete with the original.

I love how you manage to slip a bit of humor into many of your works, it makes me look forward to the next.
This was a very tricky perspective, but you did a pretty good job with it.

I think "humor slips in" is the right phrase to describe it, as I am usually aiming to do more of a serious stuff
