Viking Squad is a lane-based brawler where you and your friends fight your way out from under the maniacal rule of the village Jarl. Along the way you will encounter strange new foes, gather powerful weapons and liberate strange new gods in an ever-expanding pantheon of plunder!

Mini Q&A
Answers provided by Caley Charchuk, Designer
Why do you make games?
Game development has been a lifelong passion for each of us here at Slick. We grew up alongside the video game renaissance, which evolved into experimenting with technology and art, ultimately leading us to where we are now. The obstacles you face every day are like nothing else out there. It is a wildly addicting and tumultuous mix between Art, Technology and Design that just doesn’t exist in other mediums.
Why should people play titles from Slick Entertainment?
We are a passionate group of developers who aim to make fun games with a whole lot of personality.
What element of game design do you hold above all others?
This is a tricky one, it is tough to single out one element since design is dependent on so many coming together. But if I were to choose one at the moment it would be accessibility. One goal we aim for is the easability to pick up and play our games and feel entertained from the experience. Even just walking by and glancing at a game in progress we strive for players to feel some amount of engagement. Whether that’s through goofy stories being told on screen, special effects or actually holding the controller and trying to overcome the obstacles set before you. We want all players to have something to take away from their time with the game.

Day 21 | Slick Entertainment

Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.

Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Looks like a fun co-op game.
Viking style castle crashers. nice.
Totally reminds me of Castle Crashers in a good way.

Digging the animation and art style. Really viking-y
