Expanded Edition
Greetings Weary Traveler, have a seat, sip some cactus juice, we have news to share.
The Remainder might be getting an Expanded Edition soon.
Since making CoTTR, we've learned much and improved as writers and story-tellers, so an edit of some text will make it a better narrative experience without altering the plot. We would also like to add content that were left out of the current release due to time constraints, to make it a more complete and thoughtful experience.
This edition, if we manage to do, it would be free for everyone who already owns the game.
Some artworks will also be re-worked to achieve the same level of quality that we have for most other pieces of art, with the possibility of new scenes or character art, if we hit our funding goals.
What We Want To Do:
- General text re-write and editing.
- A new intro scene to set the mood and lure players into the narrative.
- Alternative True Ending(s) for those who prefer a purely emotional connection or for those who prefer to not stay together after the ordeal is done
- Extra surprise endings where the story goes into other weird but characteristically Tal'Dun directions.
- An extended epilogue hinting at the life and challenges characters might face in a future game in the same universe.
- More ways to die. (Is there ever enough?)
- More enlightening conversations with the sage.
How We Want To Do it:
In order to fulfil these goals, we will most likely run a Kickstarter campaign with a conservative goal, just enough to give us 1-2 months of time to work on these changes. We will start it sometime in July.
Naturally, we will create some interesting rewards for our backers to show our thanks.
- Physical hand-written letters from the game.
- Art prints from scenes of the game.
- Limited run A3 lino block print of Ilar’s sigil.
- Very limited physical CD release with the game, soundtrack, and post-cards.
- The game itself for those who haven’t ventured into the world of Tal’Dun yet.
If you already love CoTTR, now's the time to tell us what you'd like to see added to the expanded edition! Leave a comment below and we'll collect it to be considered for the kickstarter.
Waters keep you,
