We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on May 18, 2012.

The Grim Dawn Kickstarter ends this Friday! Check out our revised reward chart + New Music!

Update #13 · May 14, 2012 · 76 comments

Entering this final week, some changes have been made to the rewards based on feedback from fans.  This includes the prior addition of Swashbuckler and Drunken mastery tiers and the extension of alpha / beta access, digital extras and expansions to secondary game copies in multi-copy bundles, making for quite a value! 

By popular demand, new $48 and $78 co-op bundles plus first expansion have been added.  Check out the reward chart for details!

Also, don't forget about the stretch goals!  We've already locked down the first two and the third, promising an additional end-game boss is within $10k!

Finally, attached is another great track from Dan Crislip and Steve Pardo!  This one is more of an ambient track that is sure to up the creepiness of the desolate farmlands north of Devil's Crossing.
