    Paper Sorcerer is a first-person turn-based RPG with adventure game elements inspired by Wizardry, Dungeons and Dragons, and Shadowgate.

    - Play as a renegade sorcerer as he struggles to escape the book prison and regain his powers.
    - Escape a magical prison filled with heroes hunting you down at every turn.
    - Strategy over grinding battles, with a charge based spell system.
    - Create a party of summons to join you as allies in battle.
    - Discover open-ended puzzles and solve them with a combinations of spells, items, and your wits.
    - Hand-drawn high-resolution sprites inspired by the work of late eighteenth and early nineteenth century illustrators like Aubrey Beardsley and William Bradley.

    The dev is looking towards a release next month and the game is already being beta tested. The project's Kickstarter was a huge success, earning nearly triple its pledge goal, which should speak volumes about the game's potential.

    Release platforms are "PC, Mac, iPhone, iPad, Android" and possibly Xbox Live Indie Arcade and web-browser.

    There's a demo at the dev's website - http://www.ultrarunaway.com/

    I'm pretty much sold after watching this. Love the concept and design decisions he went with.

    Renegade sorcerer trapped in a book, fighting his way out? Yeah, I can dig that.
