Cool stuff. Thanks for posting.

Makes you wonder if the Aztec Pantheon and the efforts of humans to interact/appease them would make an interesting game. You could have each player be a god and have them accumulate their distinctive features while trying to get people to worship them in various ways, providing the needed currency/energy/mana/whatever to gain more power and level up those distinctive features.

Of course, there would be the whole 'human sacrifice' thing to freak some folks in the gaming world out...

Sounds like a RPG we played back in the day...as Orcs. I remember starting a fight within 10 minutes of starting by telling our Shaman "me never hear of yur god"  :2funny:
