Greetings!
Here's an exclusive pre-alpha screenshot to our game "Eschalon: Book I" by Basilisk Games. It is a 100% independent project that is scheduled to be completed in mid 2007.
[Edited: Info and screenshot updated 03/21/07]
Stop by http://basiliskgames.com for the latest news and to get a little more info on the project. We will also be looking for people to help with a closed beta test soon, so keep an eye on our site for that announcement.

Looks pretty good! You should get someone to carefully proofread all your text, though - there's a couple typos in that screenshot.

Looks similar to Diablo. That was an awesome game.
My only criticism is that I don't really like the text box down the bottom. Doesn't suit the style.. perhaps try and spruce it up a little?

Looking very nice, I hope it'll also run on Linux.

Looks great! We look forward to hearing more about the game. There wasn't very much information on the website, is the combat turn-based or realtime? What are some of the other features?

Thanks for the compliments, everyone.
Verious: Combat is turn-based, but flows fast enough that it feels almost real-time. As for other features, they are still being finalized. There will be much more information available when we officially announce this project in a few weeks.
Bjorn: Linux is a possibility. The Macintosh version has been promised first, and then we will look into a Linux port based on the number of requests we get for it.

Really nice looking screenshots. Also a great plus that the battles will be turned-based.
Will it be free?

Jocke:
Unfortunately we have too much invested in it (think "life savings") to be free, but there will be a HUGE demo the day the game is released, and we will also be doing our own online distribution so you can expect the full version to be very affordable.

Yet another update! We've had a great interview with RPG Vault this past week where we discuss some more of the game's details and gave them 3 new screenies. We also have our own forums up now if you want to ask the devs questions or request features. Reach it all from the front page at http://basiliskgames.com
Again, thanks RPGDXers for your interest!!
