Trine demo lets you try out three player co-op

trine

A PC demo for Trine has arrived, and allows for three player cooperative play, full of physics based puzzles and enemies.

Each character has talents that help invent solutions to puzzles and ways to defeat enemies.

The Wizard can use magic to create objects and new paths, the Thief can uses agility and accuracy to deal with enemies, and the Warrior provides destruction.

Loads more info on this very pretty game is through the link.

Get the demo from FileFront.

I’ve been downloading for about an hour before this story went up, pretty slow download, although I’m not getting it from that source I don’t think.

I just clicked the download link on FF, to test it, and it says it will be completed in 45 minutes. That site is usually pretty fast.

Ex: My Witcher Advanced update through the game’s site took over three hours. When my system crashed and I had to reformat, I re-downloaded it through FileFront. Took about 1/2 the time.

My internet connection is powered by hamsters on wheels as well, just for reference.

This demo is up for basically 24 hours. Anyway its a great demo. It reminds me a little of Little Big Planet in the way that you can play a lot with the physics around. The graphics are lovely and the sound is very pretty. Considering this game is a low budget one id say its a must buy!

I downloaded the demo earlier, but it crashes as soon as it gets to gameplay. Which is annoying, of course. I suppose I’ll have to wait for the PS3 version.

Lower the resolution to 1280 and deactivate AA.

Just completed the demo. I have to say it is rather special, something I am definitely going to get, which is high praise as I don’t normally like platform puzzlers.

I just finished the demo (worked flawlessly btw, even at high resolution), quite interesting concept, fun too. Still some rough edges in there, but I’ll probably get this.

Did you get the bug where the bottom black bar of the cutscene is too high, which just makes you think why it’s even there as there is always picture under it.

Yeah, that was very noticeable, I mean there’s no way someone missed that in testing surely?

This 1$=1 Euro on Steam is pretty bad for us EU gamers. When the price is around 20 Euro-OK not so bad but after that is just robbery. I like Steam but they need to have an exchange $-Euro rate. These prices stoped me buying Anno 1401(Dawn of Discovery-US)because it is 50 Euros which here in Bulgaria is 100 Levs(our currecy) and the retail version is 35 Euro.

It’s £19.99 through Steam in the UK, whether it’s worth that or not will depend on how long the game is.

It looks like it might be quite long given what the upgrade/level up screen looked like.

uk players r being robbed as well, though not so much as the other us.

i haven’t bought any game from steam since they switched to euro prices with the exception of a very few that were really cheap as a weekend deal. i won’t buy anything in the future unless they switch back to dollar prices.
