Nomad Colossus

Don't suppose you still have that disc?

What an awesome collection you have!

Reached 75K subs! So I made a special video to celebrate the occasion ; )

When I get home from work, most nights I work on my latest blog post and occasionally upload a video to Youtube. After months of work I've just made public my latest post 'Early videos in chronological order (301-450). Check it out! nomads-sotc-blog.blogspot.com/2025/09/

Used Photoshop to generate 3 possible fills.

Awesome thread! Very interesting 👍

YouTube video by Nomad Colossus Shadow of the Colossus - Testing the bracelet

As suspected, without Wander present the bracelet (wristguard) doesn't break when Gaius hits the central stone platform. youtu.be/EbGYN8XQ-GY

You really should document all these great facts and musings in a blog post. If asked JK to do the same, but I guess the task is a little daunting!

Argus in stand by mode. A recreation of an old video from March, 2010. Just a short test for now...

Note: There is no music playing - Argus has no sword in its right hand - and all the sigils are glowing!

YouTube video by Nomad Colossus ICO - Hidden levels

Yes, of course I knew that already! Why else would I be reaching out to a famous game dev like you 😉. Well, perhaps this video I made may peak your interest? Although I have my doubts... youtu.be/GY2ang2LmPw

Are you a fan of ICO? As well as a creator?

Aren't you also a fan? Damn, you are a hard nut to crack!

Path to the dam (update) Added a lizard and fixed Mono

I probably should have sent you this piece of art I made using screen captures from Shadow of the Colossus. It's quite beloved by the community 😆

I see, well I meant no offence... I retouched out the SIE watermarks as I wanted a nice clean image as I'm a graphic designer by trade. But I did want to contact you, so I thought this might be a way to get your attention.

Hi there, I retouched this image in Photoshop to clean it up. What do you think?

Original image titled 'POSTER18'

Can you follow me so we can chat?

However, in the OPM demo you can make it to the forest legitimately so the sounds don't appear. Yet, the sounds in the forest are identical to the PSU demo - that is a strong wind sound. Can we check the OPM demo sheets to see if the ambient forest sounds are in the list?

Thanks to you & Jaikhay! Makes perfect sense. In the PAL demo the same thing happens, but instead of Mono, Valus & Wander sounds you get part of the intro music that plays over and over, so the list of sound files must be a little different?

In the PSU demo when you are near the E5 forest, you will hear these creepy strange sounds. First you hear Mono's disembodied voice, then the footsteps of Valus and finally Wander waking up in the temple. youtu.be/K6CBbXPs1jw

Yes, of course! Sorry - thought you were someone else...

YouTube video by Nomad Colossus Shadow of the Colossus - Odds & Ends (part 4)

Hey there, wanted to introduce myself.
Did you know that the 12th boss (Poseidon) fits neatly in this cave? See here: youtu.be/0UiNYXfNPUI?...

Ha! That's crazy!

I made a crude image of the columns at the time 😉

Can I buy this somewhere?

Demon Wander above the glowing pool of water at the final cutscene (Preview version) - Wander looks mournful here... as if he knows what is coming...

Good question? Maybe (like a monkey) it jumped its way up the walls and then grabbed the statactites again? I mean monkies are very good at climbing things!

I would also!

This was my idea of how the Queen raised up the ICO island from the depths of the sea with her power! The original artwork didn't have the Queen... I just added her recently!
