Steam Autumn Sale + Merchandise Store Launch



Hello,

The Steam Autumn Sale is now live and Pid is 75 % off. Almost every Might and Delight game is on sale right now, so make sure to fill in any gaps you might have in your MaD collection!

We’re also ecstatic to finally be able to say that our very own merchandise store is now live and operational. This is the first time we’ve been able to offer premium quality items with Might and Delight prints but it’s been highly requested by fans for a long while now.

Click here to visit the Might and Delight Merch store.

On day one we offer a selection of t-shirts, tote bags and mugs - but we have mouse mats and notebooks on the way, and we’re going to listen closely to what our community would like us to expand our assortment with. The t-shirts currently on offer are labelled “First Edition” on the neck tag and there are only 1000 of them available for now. We might not produce these particular prints again once they’re gone, so don’t miss out!

With that we wish you a very pleasant day and holiday season. Talk to you again soon!

Best wishes,
Oliver & the team at Might and Delight


An Update on Current Affairs at Might and Delight

[h3]Community members, Travellers, Friends[/h3]

The past months have been the most revolving, intriguing and emotional that we have ever experienced at our studio. Releasing Book of Travels in Early Access and trying to keep up with the logistical and emotional aftermath has been both fun and challenging. It's safe to say that this period has been unique for us.

It's in the wake of these events that we reach out to you with some important news. With the ambition to be both transparent and concise, we want to share the current status of our company to you all. Our goal is always for you, our community, to know who we really are – whatever that may be.

In light of the launch not going quite as well as we had hoped, we have had to make some rather big, and difficult, cutbacks to our beloved team. In order to stay alive, we have been forced to cut down our team from around 35 people to 10 people. Saying goodbye to so many skilled, trusted and loved Might and Delighters has been, without a shadow of a doubt, our most difficult test in our 11 year history.



Understandably, many of you will wonder how this is going to affect the studio going forward. We have suffered a setback and as a result the production pace of coming content WILL be affected. We want to be transparent regarding that. However, we also want you to know that the team that remains is determined and hell bent on two things: surviving and bringing the best possible content to the game. We will do whatever it takes to keep the studio going, and continue to bring it and the company forward together with you.

We want to end by sharing this sentiment; Might and Delight have always been a company that has thrived on the edge and in the margins. We have always sacrificed much in order to bring our visions to life, sometimes going against the smartest strategy in favour of a path closer to our hearts.

We have a donation-like DLC called ”Cup of Kindness” that you can pick up if you wish to further support the project. We also released The Book of Travels soundtrack and the Pid Soundtrack and a brand new Might and Delight bundle with all our 10 games and 19 DLCs, including the two fresh OSTs.

We sincerely hope that this news, grim as it is, reach you well. With hope to continue the journey together.

All the best,
Founders Anders, Jakob & Dev Team

[h3]What is TMORPG?[/h3]
The T in TMO signals an alternative to the more common industry standard MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game) putting 'tiny' in the place of 'massive'. That means fewer meetings, which we think means more magic... Read more here: What is a TMORPG?!

News from the Shelter team + New Shelter 3 trailer!

Hello!

Today we are really excited to share this, our new trailer! We hope you like it. Much like an elephant, development is coming along slowly but surely. Currently the team are working on elephant behaviours, level design and bringing some animal NPCs to life.



Elephant Development

But the truth is that we should have been further along than this by now, and today we're writing to let you know that we've had to revise our schedule - release is now set for a realistic early 2021. We're sorry - we know that some of you have been waiting so patiently! But we're a small team and along with updating Meadow, we just don't have the resources to move much faster than this. This means that we won't be working on any new updates for Meadow until Shelter 3 is released. Pulling resources away from Meadow means that we can fully commit to our deadline for Shelter 3, however we do have plans for some fun Meadow updates when that time comes - we think it will be worth the wait!


Meadow in the Meantime

Meadow has been an unexpected high point in our journey and we want to say a huge thank you for making Meadow what it is today - it's been four years of animal joy, and we've never stopped being surprised, touched and deeply grateful for all that you have produced and shared. Thank you. 

Our recent Kickstarter means that there's been a few new faces in Meadow recently, and we'll continue to do more Play-with-the-devs events (one soon-to-be-announced for April). We also want you to know that the emotes you've been using so effectively will be gaining a sibling in our upcoming fairytale RPG, Book of Travels. Again, to all Meadow players, a huge thank you for helping us test and develop this communication system and showing us how magical it can be.

That's all for now - thank you for all your comments here on Steam! (We've been a little absent lately but we'll be around more often to say hello in the future.)

Best Wishes,

Helen and the team at Might & Delight

Book of Travels Kickstarter Ending Soon!

Hello!

As I write we are nearing the end of our Kickstarter campaign for Book of Travels, and if you've been thinking of getting involved and backing us but haven't done it yet, now is the time!  

We write to you now to update you on two very important topics! Rewards and... a cat!




Free games now included + map book
We want to make sure you don't miss out on our last little bit of Kickstarter adventure... It's been a crazy campaign and we've flown a little bit by the seat of our pants, which included adding some extra free things to the rewards bundles. Every pledge Traveller and above now gets Meadow + an illustrated Map Book, and every pledge Settler and above gets (Meadow and) Tiny Echo + an illustrated Map Book. (If you already have these games you are free to give the key to a friend!)

Flik the cat goes to Braided Shore

Did you know we have one member of the team who is not quite human? She is Flik, our visiting cat. To celebrate the end of the campaign, and to honour the calm and chaos she brings to the studio we're going to add her into the game as a rare event, try to spot her on your travels!

Here is Flik in real life!

Thank you so much for checking out the campaign in these final hours! We will be much more present here on Steam in the coming weeks, and we'll be opening a new thread where you can add your game ideas!

If’ you haven’t clicked your way to the  campaign yet there may still be time! Here's the link once again.
