Update #20: We did it!
Hey folks,
It’s impossible to truly express our gratitude to you all for helping us hit our initial goal — but give yourselves a pat on the back for being so phenomenal. You are the best backers in the (Over)world and we’re lucky to have you. You saved us an awful lot of stressful nail-biting by helping us hit 100% with several days to spare.
We have plenty of time left, so head to our main page and scroll down to refresh your memory of our Flex Goals. As we head into “Flex Goal Territory” (a frightening and uncharted realm full of danger, mystery, and whimsy) you’ll need to begin thinking about which are most important to you. Since every backer gets to vote on Flex Goals you should convince your like-minded friends to pledge if they haven’t already.
We’re happy to announce that we are launching PayPal support in the next few days. All rewards & tiers will be exactly the same as those on Kickstarter — so if you’ve been waiting for PayPal check out the rewards (and add-ons) and decide which one is best for you, we’ll let you know the moment it’s ready!
Thank you again.
Until next time Underlord,

Thank you, Peter.
Congrats, team.
Creator Kamikaze Banzaai on December 29
Fantastic new, the game is afoot :D Thank you all that helped the creators to get there: a dream come true ... eagerly awaiting this gem ;)
Creator Subterranean Games on December 29
@ James McGrady : Richard is our only stretch goal. Once he is hit, we will begin working towards our first Flex Goal unlock. Also, if we do not hit Richard/Flex Goals before KS ends, funding will continue up until release in August. As we hit goals, everyone that has pledged in KS (and after) will be notified and able to vote. Ideally with Richard, we'd need to hit the goal sooner than later so that we can have the time to get his lines recorded and integrated into the game before August (or, there is a possibility of having some lines in the Bedrock Beta if we have him before then). :)
@ Yiangos Stylianou : We will be having a Livestream event very soon. :)
@ Everyone : Thank you! We're so excited to have made it, and we will not disappoint with WFTO. This has been a dream for everyone in the team over a decade, and we will ensure that this game will be the best it can be.
Creator Vesa-Matti Ollila on December 29
ups, wrong comment section
Creator Vesa-Matti Ollila on December 29
The dancer looks worried. Is she worried the sunstalker will eat her? :P
Creator carlosdelfuente on December 29
Absolutely made up that they got it, and with a few days to spare. And yes, let's get RR on too now. Come on paypallers, ya bums! ;)

Good job guys, you made it happen with this awsome game
Creator D@nzingtree on December 29
Woooo!!!
I hope we can increase the awesomeness with passing 225.000
Creator Blizzard on December 29
YES WE DID IT
now we just need to get Richard
Creator Anders Mellon Skov Hermansen on December 29
Now all we truly need for it to be a proper Dungeon Keeper game is getting back Mr. Richards for his awesome narration.
Creator King Hang Lam on December 29
You guys are making a childhood dream come true. I'd love to see Horned reaper and the Bile demon back in some way or another.
Creator Norbert Bayerl on December 29
don´t stop until 225.000! :D so we get RR voice :D
Creator Cowkill on December 29
I'm really really glad for you guys, you deserved this. You're making a huge number of gamer's dream become true.
I'm excited to have my hand on this.
Creator Yiangos Stylianou on December 29

Prepare the imps for slapping!
Creator Robert Kasalý on December 29
Woo! You guys are AWESOME. Now let's make getting Richard on board a priority, shall we?
Creator Yiangos Stylianou on December 29
Congrats in the funding
Maybe a trip to chamber o horrors will make you pledge more for the course.
Creator Ali O. Sukhon on December 29
Congrats to Subterranean Games & Rise!!! you did it! Cheers to all the backers on this project & staff!
Creator Loke Tim Khaw on December 29
Congratulations! Looking forward to it!
Creator Jason Yeh on December 28
Congrats to Subterranean Games staff and all the backers! Out of all the games I've backed on Kickstarter, I'm the most hyped for WftO!
Creator Robin Wemmenlöv on December 28
If they raise enough money why shouldn't they bring in Richard? Even though that money could be spent on the games development it still feels like it would sort of a miss to not include him into the game. The other games most memorable assets was the voice of the narrator which really did bring out the dark humour of the game.
Creator Nathan on December 28
It just wouldn't be the same without Richard's narration not at all.
and the £75,000 would be for studio costs and everything it wouldn't all be going to him.
Creator eXoScoriae on December 28
While I would love Richard as the narration, I don't feel as though it is worth 75,000 pounds. If it takes that much money to hire him, then he is simply too expensive. That is 50% of the total cost for the entire game. That sort of money can be spent much more wisely.
Creator Nathan on December 28
w00t hell yeah
Now lets get Richard Ridings shall we just upped my pledge £40 for the cause :D
Creator UprightMan on December 28
2013 should be an interesting gaming year indeed! Congratulations all...
Creator Matthew on December 28
Best news I've heard all day.
Creator Mike Large on December 28
Brilliant news guys, congratulations :)
Creator René Morten Jensen on December 28
Its kinda silly but if all of us raised our pledge by 12£ that would be enough to get him as the voice actor. raising mine right now. to do my part!. here to the DREAM :)
Creator René Morten Jensen on December 28
Its been a tough fight!. Good job to everyone.
Creator Conor Marshall on December 28
Congratulations! I cannot wait to finally play something that lives up to DK, the only way it could get better would be if we manage to get Richard Ridings on board!
Creator Frederik Tor Nessling on December 28
Wonderful!
Now, what are you waiting for? Open da PayPal valves!
Creator Jaes W Overley on December 28
Congratulations! I look forward to the year ahead! The Flex Goal that I REALLY want is Richard Ridings as the narrator. I will keep spreading the word in hopes that we can get him on board!
Creator Roman Iskandarov on December 28

Creator Mauro Lombardi on December 28
