    Wow... I would definitely like to see this avaliable on iPod/iPhone small screen too. Any chance of a Universal build?

    Funny you ask, we've actually just began looking into this. We're also looking into cloud services that would enable you to pick up and play your saved games from any device.

    Definitely go Universal if you can, I would purchase this in a heartbeat but am stuck on the "small screen." I think making apps universal great increases their audience.

    Cool.

    Once again, I wish that Kickstarter could take PayPal. :(

    This looks great so far.

    Have you considered adding the following things?

    Switches or pressure plates that open up entrances to hidden rooms.

    Quests to earn rare items , gear or spells. Eg. Find a spell book that
    a Mage is looking for. You can keep the book to cast a certain spell
    or give the book to the Mage to get another equally rare spell.
    Find a magical sword the replenishes life per attack or give it to
    It's owner and receive the boots of speed that allows the wearer
    to attack twice in one turn.

    The option to negotiate with monsters who may switch sides to
    fight for you.

    Good luck with your game!

    4 days left on Kickstarter, but already funded. If the developer can confirm Universal/iPhone/iPod availability I'd contribute.

    Any updates post-funding? It looks like the project made it nearly to the 4th stretch goal. There's a Orphic Software forum but it doesn't look very active.

    This looks to be exactly the type of game I have been waiting the play.
    A turn based party dungeon romp. Now to just patiently wait.

    Antharion's Steam Greenlight page just states "2014" as release. I imagine the recently released video is a hint they are nearing completion to enter beta.

    Sadly I am a KS backer and no updates now in the past 2 months. Sure hope this didn't become vaporware.
