    While I think this is a great idea for us fans, I believe that some people will look at it as a complete waste of money (which it kind of is), leave negative reviews, and see it as a way of the dev forcing (you're not) them to pay more. Which in turn would mean they wouldn't tell others to purchase this game.

    Just a thought.

    Re-read what I said, "us fans". Other people who have no idea what a "toucharcade" is, will view it as something else...

    Doing it anyway, putting a "THIS IS A TERRIBLE PURCHASE, ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO BUY" warning popup in there to confirm it.

    Maybe an "ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE SURE" on top of that.

    It'd be cool if you bought it, that it would actually be a live room that you connect to over the Internet and chat and whatnot in game. It'd make it feel like an exclusive party then.

    if not already on your list of characters to create how would you think of a megaman type of character robot that basically has a blaster arm half human half robot or human in a robot suit that can gain different type of things to shoot out of the blaster somewhat like lexi and the magic. since the link/gnomey character is going to be made(thank you in advance) a megaman character would for sure set you apart. and the 100% biggest want from me is a character like sora or riku from kingdom hearts with a key blade type sword that has certain magic qualities.

    I think we only have room for one big parody character per game. Plus it would feel weird to me to have a side-scrolling character in a top-down game, anyway. We were going to do a megaman-style game way back, but it got cancelled.

    We have all our characters designed, though there's a lot of room to put stuff in, since each character has around 10 weapons/armors/trinkets.

    Sued by Square-Enix and Disney for putting in a Key Blade that summons Mackey Maus

    LOL! Can't say they weren't warned. :p

    Actually kinda like the idea. Even if you (Kepa) won't add it in as a character-class, you could put it in as an NPC (e.g. rare boss or a mini story or both) considering the golemancy story you guys had in MG could be expanded here albeit very small. I would love to see a golem with a soul. Plus, looking at the map screenshot you posted you could even tie-in the secret location of the under garden (ruined golems). 'The wandering golem-with-a-soul' :D

    WHAT!? WHY!!!?? Awww, i would have loved to see that project come to fruition, especially with your experience with the Hook Series and if i recall correctly you mentioned you were interested to create a metroidvania game.
    Oh well, a man can dream. :)

    Megaman style or metroidvania games are expensive to produce and of questionable popularity on the App Store. Basically, the App Store is a bad place for such titles compared to PC. Maybe one day, just likely not on iOS.

    Not right now. We're still working on the random generation, and we're stuck doing that until we get the results that we want. Taking longer than expected.

    It's like you're putting the best burger ever, on top of the best burger ever - because this just keeps getting better.
    Looking forward to it.

    Can you choose gender when selecting a class? Or warriors are always male, rogues always female, etc?
