I took a quick look around the web site, but only saw the trailer and a link to the kickstarter page. Do they do a guided demo of the game? What I mean, is there someone playing the game while the developer explains things here and there?
So, regarding the movement system, is it similar to Manamon's, i.e. pushing the up arrow moves the character north, the left arrow moves west, and so on? How does it actually work? The movement, I mean? What about random encounters? How long are they making the game? If you cannot answer these questions, then fair enough, but I am probably going to contribute, but want to know what I am getting into.
