Dear Traveller,
When we made the decision to delay Book of Travels back in August, we knew we wanted to make sure that we were confident that we could meet the new deadline before we announced it to you. A while ago I wrote a post in which I described a set of nasty bugs that I (un)lovingly called the Unholy Trio, and the team has since vanquished that beast. Therefore I can finally say, with confidence, that we have a release date to share with you.
Book of Travels enters Early Access with Chapter Zero on October 11th.
Wow, that felt good to get off the chest. We knew what date we wanted to go with all along, and it has been a challenge to keep that from you until now. Especially when seeing some of you speculating that the game was delayed to next year, or worse. But now it's out there and we can all start gearing up for launch. Thank you again for still being with us – it means the world to us!
Growing together in Early Access
We do, once again, want to point out that this is an Early Access launch. There will be issues to be solved, there is content to be added, mechanics and systems to be iterated on and (most importantly) player feedback to be heeded.
Chapter Zero is the first season, if you will, of the ongoing story we're telling with Book of Travels. It will last for the entirety of our Early Access period of two years and we're beyond excited to have you come onboard and be a part of shaping this into the game of our dreams.
We'll have more to share about our roadmap for Chapter Zero soon, but we can share that the first month after launch will be strictly about looking at player feedback and taking suggestions – no extra content will be added until we've taken that time to closely examine your first impressions. We want you to feel like we're actually listening to what you have to say about the game after launch, and part of my job will be to make sure you do.
Exciting times, indeed! Once again, thank you so, so very much for your support, patience and passion. We're less than three weeks away from our maiden voyage, and we can't wait to have you with us in Braided Shore!
Best wishes,
Oliver & The Dev Team xx
