Portal and Quantum Conundrum director Kim Swift recently teased that she and her team at Airtight Games were working on an exclusive game for the Android-based OUYA. According to <a href="http://gematsu.com/2013/04/kim-swift-announces-ouya-exclusive-soul-fjord">Gematsu</a> (via <a href="http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=550888">NeoGAF</a>), that game has officially been revealed as Soul Fjord.</p>
<p>Set in a fantasy universe mixing Norse mythology with 70&#8217;s funk and soul culture, you&#8217;ll be playing as a viking named Magnus Jones, who has been slain and now finds himself in the nightclub Valhalla, in Yggdrasil. Inexplicably, he&#8217;s not on the guest list and won&#8217;t be attending the &#8220;party that will end the world&#8221;, Ragnarok.</p>
<p>With &#8220;lounge Dragons&#8221; and &#8220;disco Wizards&#8221; in his path, Jones must fight up to the world tree and gain access to Valhalla.</p>
<p>While being exclusive to the OUYA console, which hasn&#8217;t been receiving the most glowing of criticism as of late, might not make sense in the long run, it nonetheless sounds intriguing. Stay tuned for more details.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Kim Swift issues a call to arms for her fellow devs.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://gamingbolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/kim-swift-e1357222122605.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-130672" src="https://gamingbolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/kim-swift-e1357222122605.jpg" alt="kim swift" width="505" height="284" srcset="https://gamingbolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/kim-swift-e1357222122605.jpg 505w, https://gamingbolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/kim-swift-e1357222122605-300x168.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 505px) 100vw, 505px" /></a><br />
Kim Swift&#8217;s work on the premier first person puzzler Portal not only annihilated our atypical notions of what innovation could be, but also proved a stellar display of the skills of women in gaming (and keep in mind, this was during the whole Jade Raymond debacle). And then she went on to show it wasn&#8217;t a fluke with Quantum Conundrum.</p>
<p>Swift now feels that her fellow devs should work to make themselves more visible in today&#8217;s industry, to both eradicate prejudice and inspire the next generation.</p>
<p>On her <a href="http://www.inthebasecase.com/">blog</a>, Swift wrote, “We need to change the make up of our industry, because games are a reflection of their creators. I see the solution to this problem coming not a year from now, not five years from now, but twenty. When this current generation of kids sees the good example that we should be setting now. And though we may not be able to tell it completely like it is just yet, there&#8217;s still plenty we can do to help future generations of game developers.</p>
<p>&#8220;Be everything that the younger versions of us could&#8217;ve pointed to and proudly said: &#8216;Girls make games too.&#8217;&#8230;So when I blather endlessly about a game I&#8217;m working on until my eyes bleed, in the back of my head, I hope that there&#8217;s a little girl out there that realizes her dreams are achievable.&#8221;</p>
