Sphinx Monster Contest results announced!

A lot of things happened in the Sphinx community since our last announcement; the Sphinx Discord server got verified, meaning that it is now officially the place to hang out to talk about the game, and is now jointly managed by THQ Nordic and the previous community staff. Also, the Sphinx wiki got a big overhaul, jmarti856's huge beta restoration mod is chugging along after we released even more beta content last summer and retrofitted more deleted gameplay mechanics into the engine... and, you guessed it, we had another nifty contest organized by our resident duck lordquacksmith, of course helped by the rest of the moderation team. This is what they have to say. -- Calling all goblins and ghouls! Another contest is upon us, this time it's a... Design your own Monster contest! What better time to hold this event other than Spooktober? This contest required the participants to design a monster that would fit in the world of Sphinx, using any sort of visual medium to do this: drawing it, painting it, making a 3D model, using Photoshop, making a sculpture, making it out of cheddar. The lucky winner wins a currently released THQ Nordic game of their choice! -- We had some excellent entries this time around, very imaginative designs and styles and in a wide array of mediums, with the Hippo lady taking the crown. Take a look. [Nickname] super cutie/Amnit: Hippo lady (7 votes) [quote]Anubis told me to bully sphinx, so that's what I'm gonna do![/quote]
SphinxLuvDuvWuv: Seahorse (5 votes) [quote]I was making a sculpture for my entry, today I was adding the finishing touches and had just finished making his teeth, eyes and hooves (made out of polymer clay so they looked more like actual teeth) when he fell off of the table. Sadly he cannot be salvaged as he's shattered into multiple pieces.[/quote]
HeavensBullet: Krow (4 votes) [quote]Alright, here's my finished product straight from my mind, I'm pretty proud of it. So his name is Krow, and he's a woodland creature that protects the woods. He is known as nature knight, he used to be human but when he died he was mummified and reincarnated into a wood-like creature.[/quote]
Basket/braxwheeler: Ancient mummified goose (4 votes) [quote]Here's my submission. It's an ancient mummified Goose! It's used for annoying/ distracting your enemies. Very rare. Its honking was praised for its ability to wake even the deepest sleeping evils.[/quote]
BQoverlord: Golden cobra (3 votes)
Egyptian-Enthusiast: Full brute (3 votes) [quote]LuvDuv recommended I submit the joke I made in one of my more recent Sphinx Videos -- the full brute! As described by LuvDuv in the video, it's like a human centipede made of two brutes.[/quote]

Sphinx and The Cursed Mummy is an original 3rd person action-adventure inspired by the mythology of ancient Egypt. Travelling the world via magical portals to foil the evil plans of Set. Sphinx's Journey will require all his wits, agility, and special powers. He will also rely on his reluctant hero friend, The Mummy, to help when being inconspicuous is the only solution. By finding the stolen magical crowns of Egypt, Sphinx can stop Set and save the world.

Features:

Use Sphinx and his increasing array of skills to face deadly mythical monsters while avoiding perilous traps with acrobatic ease. Weaken enemies and use capture beetles to store and unleash their abilities at will.
Take control the Mummy when strength & combat skills aren't needed — use the Mummy's stealth and unconventional antics to avoid enemies, solve puzzles and sabotage right under the enemy's nose.
Interact with hundreds of unique and imaginative creatures, enemies and allies.
Fantastic graphics bring this mythical world based on Egyptian legends to life.
Totally immersive storyline and epic gameplay.

The Story:

An ancient Egyptian Universal Empire once joined several worlds through Solar Disc portals. The old empire was destroyed and the civilizations in each world have suffered different fates, some of them have continued contact and others have lost it. These worlds have been separated for such a long time that many of them would not recognize each other.

The legend says that two forces, one negative, one positive, are trying to recover the old empire and all of its crowns again. But we know very little about these forces or if they really exist. Other people are simply trying to understand what happened and the real nature of each world. Meanwhile each world continues with it’s own way and history.

Recently, strange things have been happening… News is received from many places that problems are appearing; the normally peaceful villages are now at war, odd monsters appear in valleys where there was once placid ecology... Nobody knows why…

The chain of communication between the worlds remains partially abandoned, partially destroyed and so unstable that to use it is a sure way to cause even more problems and dangers. A long time ago the Great Wall in Heliopolis was built to protect the civilians. Many people have used the portals but disappeared without trace. For this reason you never know how you will be received in any of the locations or if you will get anywhere at all.
