This game use the gfx & original screen of David Gervais.

Cf & iso cf use booth some of the same public gfx. The goblin and the chaos
priest
of the CF arches use the same gfx set. In fact, the blue wizard on there
screen shots
is the same as the CF chaos priest picture just in a different color.

I used a modified base screen from David for the iso cf stuff - he has told
me not to use
the original screen design because for his own game. Iam really wonder this
company is/has asked David
about using his stuff for a commercial game. As i understand was his base
screen not public domain.
So, i think David has something to do with this company. Perhaps i ask them
later.

Well, because Daimonin (aka iso cf) will use a different tile size (the iso
angband ones, not davids),
the gfx will look different. In fact, Daimonins gfx will beat is (my
opinion). Look at this.

Well, when we will release it, i perhaps get a better base screen  - like
better buttons & menues.
This is just most from me and AV - and we both have not the right talent for
it.

I really, really wonder there is a way to make money as shareware with this
kind of game. Also
wyvern is still free.
