Grimrock

I know Antti is a big fan. I should try it too when LoG is done!

Cant recommend it enough, it has a similar underground setting, creepy hallways and dungeons, except instead of escape, you just go deeper and deeper

Yeah, it was a great game. Just like its predecessors: the Ultima Underworld series

I'm thinking way too far with this, but I presume the next natural expansions on this title would be:
-Straight up sequel
-Wizardry-style sequel
-Ultima Underworld-style sequel

Would love to see any of them, but I agree modding/map editor and tools should be the first thing they will focus on. That kind of thing can lengthen the "lifespan" of any title by years, if not decades. Heck, just look at DooM!

Both I imagine helped make Grimrock the game it will be ^^

Yeah something tells me I really am going to enjoy this game =p

Maybe you will have the money once you release the game... If it makes it on the Steam main page, it will sell like crazy.

You mentioned something about updates. Are you going to make content updates or just patches and bug fixes? Free new content would be nice; it would get you new players months after release.

Just please, don't make any DLC. Everyone hates those, right? Once you buy the game, you shouldn't be forced to buy it again, just with less content. Make either good ol' fashioned expansion sets or sequels, that's how people like it.

If they were going to do remakes - it should be the Eye of the Beholder series!
They're still great game (some better than others) but they could use some better grafics.

But I think that Almost Human won't do remakes - that would be weird - but if they release that dungeon creator, then we can do it!

It's still all up in the air. Content updates are possible and bug fixing patches will be done if necessary. What we will do depends a lot on what do we have resources for after the launch.

Umm... NO! Please DO release DLC.

That way, if I love the game, I'll be able to buy extra chunks of it as I see fit, and for only a few bucks each!

Rather not see any DLC. Proper expansions would be nicer.
