HCBailey did an LP for that one, the music is really awesome. It looks pretty cool.

I'm interested, but I need some type of rundown as to how it actually works. Is the combat dice rolls, or is it turn based? Any other important factors?

Combat is realtime, movement is gridbased. Not sure about dicerolls though.

I'm more interested now. How exactly does combat work though? Just click as fast as I can?

Attacks have cooldowns from the gameplay I've seen. It's a bit more tactical than that.

Wait, I just realized this game is... $12? Haha, wow.

Anyone know how graphic intensive it'll be? Kind of hard to tell with its style. The best I've seen on my PC is probably Bad Company 2 on medium settings, so it's passable but pretty behind.

If you go to their page at grimrock.net, there is a graphical demo to test how well it performs. I downloaded it tonight and I'm doing pretty well.. 30FPS with all the bells and whistles, 40FPS if I turn soft shadow quality down. It looks great!
