Dear citizens,
We've reached the goal for No Rest for the Wicked. Thank you very much. We are humbled. Next up, is the goal for Once Upon A Gun: an even bigger mix-up to Steamdolls, Once Upon A Gun will bring a new playable character to the game. Play as Agnes the gunslinger, as you hunt down the Steamdolls with a whole new paradigm of combat based around ranged weaponry.
Much more than just a fresh coat of paint, Agnes has her own skills, arsenal and objective. This goal will be unlocked at 73,500EUR.
In addition, we'll soon have some news about an extended version for the conceptdemo. This will be available through Steam, so make sure to check out the page for the game there:
New hand-drawncutscene at the end with more David Hayter, Monsters, new enemies, a new stealth kill and also a huge, nasty boss ! While the first demo was more oriented on simple combats with humans, the extended demo has a real focus on exploration and ambience.
This will be very different from the already existing concept demo, and as such will be available as a demo download on our main page (link above), and not on the concept demo listing.
Cheers,
Andi, Yoann and the Steamdolls team.

Dear Citizens,
I see we are almost at the goal for No Rest for the Wicked. Excellent! We are most pleased with this turn of events, and to reward you we have even more delights coming up. You will find out more shortly. This includes new content, new goals, and a peek behind the scenes of the game. Here is one such peek.
Those of you who have played the demo available for Steamdolls will have noticed that the soundscape and music is exquisite. As such, it is only fair to give some time in the spotlight to the man who created it: Jeremy Hagry. As a treat for you all, he has created a video discussing his work on Steamdolls. Worthy of a look (and listen), no?
If you have not experienced his work - which means you also haven't played the demo, are you crazy? - then you are missing out. As part of the rewards for the campaign, pick up his soundtrack on CD disc or vinyl.
Andi, Yoann and the Steamdolls team
PS: From one composer and sound artist to another, Jeremy has quite good taste with the Prophet Rev2. I'm more of an Adam fan when it comes to monitors though! - Andi
Time for a Little Cross Promotion with our friends Go Fight Fantastic!
Before leaving you, I wanted to talk about Go Fight Fantastic! : a game totally different in color and style from ours. That's a cooperative action RPG for 3 players with a vibrant style and personality. There is also a demo to help you decide if you want to support their work. Interested? Drop by their campaign, it's live ... and kicking!
What a fantastic start! 70%+ funded in a day! Thanks to all of you, The Whisper is on his way to become unstoppable!

Yesterday we launch our campaign and were not expecting a spark like this. That's pretty amazing and we are truly grateful.
But the fight is only beginning and we need to achieve our base goal to give you more insight on what the future will hold. Believe me we have a lot of surprises waiting for you.
The Whisper is voiced by the very cool David Hayter, Solid Snake himself. Did you know that David Hayter can be even more present in the game?
If we reach our first stretch goal of 38 500 Euros, he will be a true Chatty Cathy and will react to plenty of situations within the City. He could even invite a friend to join him and they will be reunited like in the good old days. A man who has accompanied him for the longest time. His close ally, advisor, and confidant. Who could it be? Tempting, right ?
What is equally important to know, is that we added the promise of supporting Japanese Language in our first stretch goal. We would really like The Whisper's message to be heard worldwide, and we've had many people internationally reach out to us about how much they like what they've seen. We truly appreciate this. So, let's meet the stretch goal to help all these people too!
Also, over the course of this campaign, us in the dev team will be scheduling streams where you can see our working process, and chat to us about the game. You will be able to see how the mad genius Etienne creates the gorgeous art and twisted abomination for the game. Art at work!
We will meet again pretty soon I am sure of it. Thank you again for believing in our project.

Before leaving you, I wanted to talk about a game that was nice enough to feature us in their update. If you are interested do not hesitate to watch their trailer below.
Black Book : An RPG Adventure ? Mixed with deck-building turn-based combat ? An heavy focus on the story in the setting of Slavic mythology, that will be instantly familiar to the fans of the Witcher series ?
Say no more, that's pretty interesting. Their campaign is close to the finish line. If it talks to you, do not hesitate to check and support it. And you can try a free Prologue to seal the deal.
100% funded! Stretch goals and making the grand plan even grander!

Dear Citizens,
What an amazing turn of events!
In less than 48 hours, we have reached our main goal and The Whisper is definitely happy about that. We wanted to thank our ever-growing community, we would not be here without you. The Order of Chaos is proud to have members such as yourselves.
100%+ funded and well on our way to hit our first stretch goal.
As you have already seen, the first stretch goal at 38,500EUR is to bring extended narration from David Hayter into the game, along with the Japanese translation.
But what after that?
Well, dear backer, The Whisper thinks it is time to begin revealing to you the next steps of the plan.
Make it happen!
The next stretch goal will be at 46,000EUR, and the first of several plannedgameplayexpansions.
A trove of new features and storylines for the already meaty base game. Full of fresh narratives and new challenges to offer you a playground even more gigantic, savage and ruthless.
Let me introduce the first one.
This is The Whisper's Lair, a haven in the chaos of the city.
Get your own lair, and mould it to your liking. Decide how to decorate. Petand feed your trustycat.Create a stoic fortress of solitude, or lavish the walls with velvet and hedonistic beauty. Items and decorations can be bought in a shop, found in the twisted halls of the demented world, along with a set of completely new quests where you investigate and loot houses abandoned by those fleeing the city. Those of you with a keen eye for aesthetics will be judged and rewarded with a title.
Everybody needs a place of home and comfort, even a crazed madman raging against society. With The Whisper's Lair, you'll be able to carve out a place for yourself in this damned world.
Loyal citizen, you must help us achieve this goal. Why is that? Because you will be delighted to hear David Hayter complains about losing oneof his socks, right?
In addition, when we all meet the 46,000EUR stretch goal, Spanish translation for the game will be unlocked!
Beyond that? Well, you can see there is "Metal Gear vocal reunion"... what could this possibly mean? Well, a special someone will transmit a message soon. A priority message, only for you, that is projected directly into you ear so only you can hear it. Seems quite important.
We will meet again pretty soon I am sure of it. Thank you again for believing in our project.
