Double Fine Adventure Slacker Backer Price IncreaseâSoon!
Earlier this year, we did that whole Kickstarter thing. And for months now, weâve let people who missed the campaign get in on the action as âSlacker Backers.â
Weâve been charging $15 for a subscription to new documentary episodes as theyâre released, ongoing development updates from the team, private backer forum discussions, and eventual access to the beta on PC and released game on PC, Mac, or Linux. The money contributed by those backers goes right into making the game.
Itâs gone really well! We have racked up a whole ton of content so far, all of which is available to Kickstarter backers and Slacker Backers. There are more than a dozen videos from 2 Player Productions, and nearly two dozen in-depth dev writeups. We think thereâs a lot of valuable material there, and we think it proves out the concept of ongoing backer access.
When the game comes out, itâs likely to cost at least $15 on PC/Mac/Linux, and then the documentary will be sold by 2PP on top of that. So backers are getting a sweet deal even before all the extra stuff comes into play!
So now, the news: We will be increasing the backer access price to $30 in a week, on November 16. We think that better reflects not only what backers will receive with the beta and the game, but also the many hours of material available right this second.
BUT! If youâre already a backer, DONâT WORRY. You are TOTALLY SET. Weâre not asking you to up your pledge. Thank you for helping this project exist! You are great.
AND! If youâre not a backer, you still have a week to get in at $15! Check out this ridiculous list of content you could be enjoying. (Itâs all super good.)
