Looks great! I like pretty much everything, except I would suggest somehow changing the character highlight - right now it makes him look like a paper cut-out doll. Maybe even just a different color would solve that, or some small star floating above the head, I dunno.

This is true, Personally I'd prefer a tabletop model look over the papercutout look, but gfx arent really a priority to me, it's all about gameplay.

Hmm I do actually kind of like the sound of this, the art style puts my off somewhat. (seems cartoony?) but the combat looks quite intricate which I do like.

I'm undecided at the moment, at $10 I would probably back it, but at $15 I'm gonna wait and see.

I think what will sell this game best is the sound effects.
The sound of doors and chest opening and pages flipping, --the quality of those sounds are just so good. I was just watching a trailer, but I was totally immersed.

Surely that beholder is going to stir some issues if it gets noticed by Wizards of the Coast! (Well, OK - it's a Gauth as it only has 6 eye-stalks, but hey). As it's copyright IP the Pathfinder RPG guys weren't allowed to use it!

Antharion does look pretty cool though, and I like the sound of the amount of scope you are hoping to include with the world. Sounds great. Best of luck with the KickStarter!
