    Good news on the submission. What is the price point going to be?

    $5 on release. Will raise the price by a dollar every time we do a big content update. It'll get to $7 pretty fast.

    I still have plenty of time to change my forum sig. Looks like 17th isn't going to happen. 24th is still likely.

    Device Supported?

    Is iPod Touch 3G 32GB supported? Sorry if I already asked this question but I forget a lot!

    We only support retina devices and Ipad 2 and up I think. It might run on earlier things by mistake (will check and do a warning if so), but it probably won't run well.

    About the device!

    Question #1: Will there be game-breaking bugs on non-retina devices?
    Question #2: Will you optimize the game for older devices in future updates?
    Question #3: How long is the game?
    Question #4: How long do you plan to support this game?

    1: At best, it'll run like crap. If it runs at all. It's really not designed for pre-retina devices. Even iPad 1 is kind of shaky.
    2: No, it's pretty pointless. Apple pushes for obsolescence, and it's really climbing a huge mountain to go against this. For no real benefit.
    3: Hard to say due to the extremely replayable and difficult nature of it.
    4: At least 3 huge content updates, for free.

    So you're saying this won't run on my TI 86 calculator. :(

    Sorry!

    Sorry, then I won't be getting the game though I wished this could run on my device! Would have loved to pay 5 bucks to support you guys.

    i'd say it's time to update your device if you aren't even on a retina display... dinosaur age is over

    Yeah that's fine. I have an iPad 2, but my other device is an iPod Touch 3G and I remember that it no longer even runs the game. I am not a fast adopter of technology.

    :) If this does really well, then what? A sequel to this or just the Mage gauntlet sequel?

    Probably an extra update or something. Whether it does well or poorly, our near future plans are:

    1. PC and maybe console ports of Wayward Souls (done by porters, not us).
    2. More minimalist mystery project spinoff. Like 2 months of dev time limit.
    3. Game kind of like Wayward Souls, but gigantic multiplayer co-op game.

    Mage Gauntlet sequel is still pretty far off. Might start early work at end of the year. It'd be Zelda-y open world.

    Spinoff? Flappy Souls it is.

    Man Kepa, I'm so pumped for this. I'll try to rush the game to unlock the other classes to churn out gameplay vids for em.

    Did you just upstage your own soon-to-be-released project with an even grander promise? Yep, you did, and I'll probably enjoy Wayward Souls all the more for it ;)

    Everybody think about this. Less than 2 weeks from now we will have Wayward Souls in our devices. LESS THAN 2 BLOODY WEEKS! How does that make you feel?
