I've had lots of requests for a fillable version of the character sheet, so I finally whipped one up: You can download it here, or from the upper level generator page by clicking on the 'blank sheet' link: http://purplesorcerer.com/create_upper.htm
Sadly, there isn't going to be a fillable version of the 0-level sheet. Acrobat is an absolute nightmare dealing with that many fields: buggy, auto-sorting the tab order based on what it thinks is best... I saw an entire evening go down the drain trying to get it to work. To the outer planes of eternal cold with it! :)

Punjar, We Have Lift Off...
I'm very pleased to announce that iOS version 1.0 of the Crawler's Companion is now available in the Apple App Store!A big thank you specifically to all of the Crawler's Companion Kickstarter backers who's generous support made it possible to purchase the equipment necessary to make an iOS version possible, and to Goodman Games for creating such a fantastic game with the vision to encourage 3rd party tools like the Crawler!
And this is just the beginning! Version 1.1 with a host of new features including the new batch dice roller, hitpoint/initiative tracker, multiple dice sets, enhanced navigation options, and overhauled quick start guide is about to begin beta testing.
Again, thanks to one and all for your fantastic support!

Crawler's Companion: It Begins to Trickle Forth
Version 1.0 of the app is now available in the Amazon App Store and the Google Play Store! Hopefully we'll hear from Apple and the Nook folks soon.
At the pace things are going, the new 1.1 version might be ready before Apple says OK on version 1. :)
The upcoming version is packed with new goodness, including the before-mentioned batch dice roller and initiative/hit point tracker. There is also a new options screen that allows you to adjust certain settings, including the ability to increase the height of items in the scrolling lists, which is a much requested feature for folks using smaller-format devices. You will also now be able to select from a list of new dice colors!
If you have a 'tall-thin' format device like the Motorola Droid, you might have noticed some graphic quirks in the vertical layout of the beta and version 1.0. After much hair-pulling, this has been fixed in version 1.1.
I'll send an email to all beta testers when version 1.1 is ready to be run through its paces for both Android and iOS.
Compatibility Forecast: On a final note, I just found at that Adobe Air is supported on upcoming Blackberry 10 devices, and Air support might be coming to Windows 8 mobile in the first half of 2013. Early days, but there's a chance that the Crawler will be creeping into new territory in the coming year!
Here are a couple screen caps featuring the new turquoise die set and the options screen. As always, thanks to everyone for your support.
