Join Us for Our Krater Live Stream – 5:00pm EST – Sunday, May 27

Krater, created by fatsharkgames is a lot of things. You might classify it as a top-down, dungeon-crawling, persistent, crafting, single and multiplayer RPG (whew!) that is also gorgeous.

It comes out June 12, 2012, but is bringing it to you live two weeks before it hits stores! We’re also giving out free game codes during the !

In the post-apocalyptic world of Krater, players assume the role of one of four different classes.  You can control a squad of three people (of which they can die, forcing you to hire more).  Each squad member will give you extra combat moves, so that you can specialize your play-style.  Furthermore, you can team up with your friends online, and the single-player and multi-player integrate seamlessly. The gist of the game is that groups of “Freediggers”, those who venture into the crater that goes deeper than anyone has ever dug, do so to loot the valuable within.  You can use what you find to craft, literally, everything in the game with Krater‘s massive crafting system.  Oh, by the way, that crater has an infinite number of levels.

Krater is visually stunning, seems to be a serious challenge, provides endless replayability, and is tons of fun.  So be sure and drop by our TwitchTV page and join us as The digs in to Krater and gives away free codes! Get it? DIGS in!

[Update] It seems Krater‘s online functionality has been taken offline for this weekend.  We’ll keep you updated as more information becomes available.

    If you don’t like either, dont hate -_-

    dubstep is good…. but I LOVE TECHNO SO HARD >:0

    CHECK OUT INFINITE DIMENSIONS- KRATER ( SICKEST TECHNO BEAT IN EXISTENCE)

  2. I’m in my 3rd year of school, and I have an art paper to write. Because I’m just a witty person by heart I was thinking about how much is too much.

    Art class is just a req i’ve been needing to take, and the assignment was to observe a piece of art and write on it. Not at all serious.

    Anyway, I wrote this and it got me thinking about going to Y!A and asking a question about it.

    “Simply known as “Red-Figure Column Krater” made by Syriskos Painter, the name is not the most creative, but it is very descriptive of the work as it is a column krater.”
    It’s a rough draft, so if something sounds off, it’s because it is. So does it come off well or unprofessional?

    gratzi
    hmm. I see… I thought maybe because it was just art class.. but fine. This will be a tough answer to pick, haha.

    -Dipylon amphora [Athens] grave-marker for a woman
    -Dipylon Krater [Athens] grave-marker for a man

    PS
    I know who the Athens are but what is the difference between those two and what does grave marker mean??

  5. 1610s, from L. crater, from Gk. krater “bowl for mixing wine with water,” from kera- “to mix,” from PIE base *kere-. Used in Latin for bowl-shaped mouth of a volcano. Applied to features of the Moon since 1860. As a verb, from 1884.

  6. My head hangs in shame. This is an indictment of all those lazy ass men , and stay at home dad? more like ballless feminine man. Truly a shame. again my question is when can we expect those man cards from the like of Todd Krater (read story) who so proudly states that he doesnt work and lives off of what his woman earns. Equality is one thing but behaving like an 18th century housewife and being an embarrassment to mankind is not cool

  12. The Euphronios Calyx-Krater: Symbol of Beautiful Sacrifice

    “… As a blazing and haughty bull in a huddle of shambling cattle, when a lion has come among the herd and destroys him, dies bellowing under the hooked claws of the lion, so now before Patroklos the lord of the shield armored Lykians [Sarpedon] died raging…”
    Lattimore, The Iliad, 16.486-491

    The Euphronios calyx krater is a thing of great beauty, inspiring passion amongst many for its delicate handiwork and simplistic aesthetics. The Euphronios Krater, which henceforth shall be referred to as the calyx, was made and glazed in 515 BCE by the potter Euxitheos and the painter Euphronios, for the purpose of mixing wine with water at parties (Diebold). It shows the events occurring shortly after the death of Sarpedon, the ancient leader of the Lykians who allied with the Trojans during the Mycenaean era. The gods are carrying him home for a heroic burial. Sarpedon’s portrayal upon the calyx, the portrayal of the gods around him, and the very use of the calyx as an ancient Greek wine serving bowl all serve to prove that the painter Euphronios was trying to tell the viewers of his work that the heroic death, the beautiful death, was something to be celebrated.
