Sad news but I hope you can handle this game.

It breaks my heart to hear that you guys have struggled so. Best wishes both to those who had to part ways and to those that continue on. For the current team: please take care of yourselves! We love your passion and we don't want you to burn out! Much love.

PS - I'm glad you made the Cup of Kindness available! I've already gone ahead and purchased one. 💗

Bought the cup of kindness, will also pick up the OST. I love Book of Travels and will support it any way i can, playing it has been and will always be an absolute uncomparable joy!

Is Helen still employed?

Is Helen still employed?

Helen announced her departure on Twitter a couple weeks ago.

Just bought the game, haven't dug in fully yet.
I appreciate these types of games, sorry to hear that you had to let go %66 of staff, hopefully this next year will bring in more revenue for ya

I cannot buy the Cup because I don't own Book of Travels (yet).
Guess there's no way for the developers to change this...
Good luck with your game!

I wish you guys the best of luck and you definitely have a Cup of Kindness from yours truly

For those who want to contribute but who cannot purchase the DLC, it might be possible to do a "late pledge" for the Tip Jar through backerkit: https://book-of-travels.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders/206970

I've been playing this game almost every day. I love it, and there's been nothing else like it. Sending your team lots of love and support. Can't wait to see what you do next. You got this!

Such a bummer. Really hope the game stays afloat. Think its a wonderful concept. I've tried to get friends/people interested in it. But many times I've been met with apprehensiveness because its early access + a concept that people aren't familiar/experienced with. So they're a bit scared to go for early access. Ima buy a few cups and hope yall can pull through. Think it will do amazingly well once its more fleshed out + some targeted advertising to the audience that would most appreciate it (people interested in games like Palia, Stardew valley, animal crossing, etc)

I'm really sorry to hear that. Though I haven't been playing the game, I absolutely love it. I really REALLY hope you guys manage to stay alive! Here's a cup of tea for you!

This is really sad to learn...Just bought the game and it has more heart in it than I have ever experienced in a game before. I'll be buying the bundle and trying to spread the word to help as much as I can, you guys deserve it <3 much love and happy holidays

Really sad news. I feel for all the staff that put so much time and love into this game. It shows.

I am also sad that a project like this is not viable, as it had so much potential and offered something unique that mainstream games just don’t or won’t. Not feeling optimistic about the future prospect of a full release or the continuation of this interesting project, but I hope you can prove me wrong.

(Unsolicited advice: your interesting ideas stumbled a bit with the lack of meaningful player interaction - you need to increase player interaction if you want players to continue to return, especially in a time when most in-game content is still being worked on. Thay was my biggest disappointment in an otherwise intriguing game experience).

Really looking forward to getting this when it leaves EA. Good luck and happy holidays everyone.
