Earthworm Jim Creator Returns with Claymation Project Armikrog

The chap behind Earthworm Jim, Doug TenNapel, has returned to the video game scene with a unique claymation project, Armikrog.

The group, Pencil Test Studios, have launched a Kickstarter campaign for the new concept which relies heavily on hand-made clay models painstakingly animated by much of the original team behind The Neverhood.

Armikrog revolves around a space explorer known as Tommynaut and his companion, a blind alien, talking dog called Beak-Beak. The pair end up on a strange planet and end up locked up in a fortress known as Armikrog.

The project is currently in development for PC, MAC and Linux.

What do you think of the Armikrog claymation concept?
