Home Stretch!
We're already nearly funded and it's been less than two days!
Thankyou everyone who has backed us so far: your generosity is deeply appreciated, and vital to helping us finish the game.
Patching the demo
We've been working hard today to patch some issues with yesterday's Kickstarter demo, and we're releasing that right... NOW.
Frequently ask questions
We've had some questions about backer rewards and stretch goals so, we thought we'd just address those here. We'll keep answering questions as they come in, both here, on our Twitter, on Kickstarter and on our Discord. Please drop in and talk to us, we're friendly (honest)!
1. The DVD version of the game: full DRM free or steam installer?
A: The DVD will contain a DRM-free release build of the game.
2. If DRM free, will we be releasing patches?
A: Yes, there will be patches or new builds available via Itch.io or indie.db for which you'll get a key.
3. Is the DVD going have the soundtrack in some form too?
A: Yes, if we can fit it on there.
4. Is the soundtrack going be a Bandcamp download or steam DLC?
A: Steam for the MP3 version of the soundtrack. Bandcamp for the high-quality FLAC version.
5. How is the Generous Secretary "help us design a level" perk going to work?
A: Backers from the Generous Secretary tier will be allowed to contribute ideas, concepts, encounters, dialogue, NPCs; anything that goes into the design of a Peri-style level (within reason!). We will then take those ideas, and work with the Generous Secretaries to shop those ideas into a complete, large-size Peripetia level. We're very excited about this one because we love a challenge, and love weird and wonderful ideas, and combining them in interesting ways. Why settle for having an in-game "backer room" in your game when you can have an entire "backer level" that's completely playable and fits neatly into the theme of the game.
6. How do I get my special backer discord role?
A: Originally we were going to hand out rewards like the discord roles once the KS ended, but we're happy to assign them now. KS unfortunately does not support an automatic role assignment integration with Discord, so please drop by our discord and show us a screenshot, and we'll have you looking down upon the un-contributing masses in no time.
7. What will/can the "LORE SNIPPET" be?
A: We'll leave the exact implementation to our discretion, but we're encouraging you to write newspaper clippings, readable sections from books, government documents, or even item descriptions. If you have a fun idea how to flesh out the background worldbuilding of the game, share it! Our frob system allows for most objects to have an additional description attached to them (zooming on weapons or posters in the fourth level are an example of that), we'll have Deus Ex-style readable objects as well.
