Do you made the physics engine or have you used an existent one?

[FrozenbyteGames]

Trine 2 uses PhysX by NVIDIA. :)

[dampflokfreund]

I hope you no longer use Nvidia PhysX for your further games. Because GPU acceleration is only for Nvidia GPUs, I would take a open standard like Open CL for all cards ;)

[FrozenbyteGames]

We will see... PhysX is pretty good and the software (CPU) implementations work fine on all computers, so it might be more beneficial to stick to what we know how to use 100% than to switch things up and start from scratch... so no promises - we'll see! :)

Okay, please keep on the fantastic work, you guys are some very sympathic game developers! :D

Oh, and the soundtrack of Trine 2 is one of the best videogame soundtracks I've ever heard!

[FrozenbyteGames]

Thanks, and glad to hear you've enjoyed the game and soundtrack. :)

[FrozenbyteGames]

We rewrote the whole engine for Trine 2 so that took over a year from the programmers (all of 2010 and into 2011 as well). It was a lengthy process but paid off, as the engine is now quite awesome. :) Thanks for supporting us everyone!
