Remember the good old days when the Collectors Edition of The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe was announced? When there were 48 lazy hours until pre-orders opened and we danced carefree in the moonlight of possibility? Well, as with all things, time has killed those days of innocence stone dead. Now we are in the harsh and unforgiving present moment in which The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe Collectors Edition is no longer an optimistic glow on the edge of the horizon, but a harsh and unyielding fact of life, available for purchase now until stocks run out. [previewyoutube=W8cDuHG9IZE;full][/previewyoutube] Lets be brave and look unflinching into the cold hard reality of what physical goods we have to offer!
The special cover art for our Collectors Edition box was made by Faith Oztrk, and depicts a player using the illegal noclip technique to escape the confines of Stanleys Office. As you can see, there is nothing out in the void aside from a giant floating image of the name of the game (we had to put it somewhere)!
As the saying goes, a Stanley Figurine in the hand is worth two in the bush. Put this Figley in your hand and thats pure value. Suck on that, bush. Only 1 of these comes in the Ultimate Collectors Edition, but there are exactly 28 possible to collect in the real The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe so with a mere 28 Ultimate Collectors Editions, you can 100% the game IRL.
If you thought the cost of shipping was unreasonable now, imagine how much it would be to include a metal bucket! So were passing the savings onto YOU with this Bucket Manual. Raising and training a reassurance bucket is a lot of work and responsibility, but this guide walks you through the process consequence free*. *freedom from consequence not guaranteed.
Ever wondered how the copy machine in the office was intended to be set up and maintained? So do we! Most of this instructional cassette tape has been recorded over with 40 minutes of skits, new remixes and unheard audio content from the world of The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe!
Treat your ears to The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe Soundtrack on 2 disks of 12 vinyl! These smooth sounds come on 100% Recycled Black Vinyl with music by The Blake Robinson Synthetic Orchestra, Yiannis Ioannides, Christiaan Bakker, and Tom Schley. They also come with a set of inspirational posters.
This one is just for YOU, [name]. You can hear your name, [name], in the game of REAL LIFE, whenever you want, wherever you want. Providing your name is Jim.
Just want a physical reminder that we finished the game, its out and therell never be another delay ever again? Then pick up the Retail Edition, featuring art cards of 3 of our discord communitys top 4 favorite TSP locations (plus one of my own). Pre-order pages in various locations will appear over the following days, keep an eye out! If you have any questions regarding this, please point them at iam8bit, as they are handling all shipping and distribution!

We've been nominated for a Steam Award for Outstanding Story-Rich Game! We've been watching a lot of Christmas Movies recently and if they've taught us one thing it's that all we've got to do is BELIEVE and we'll achieve our dreams. So I'm doing my part (believing) now you do your part (voting for our dreams/game) and we should have it in the bag! I am already preparing our acceptance speech so please don't let us down! Remember, we are up against Spiderman and God of War. I've not played either of these games yet but I hear from people that they are fairly popular so remember to vote as many times as you are allowed (it is probably just once, but I have not read the fine print as I've been pretty busy "just believing"). In other news you've all been very patient so I'm happy to announce that early next year we'll be releasing a patch with additional language support and a few small pieces of new content! Thanks again for all your support! The game is currently discounted for 40% off so perhaps you could also buy it a few more times?? I am also "just believing" in you to do that so don't let us down in that regard too! Okay let's just do a quick recap! Here are your action items: 1) Vote for us in the Steam Awards. 2) Buy the game as a gift for your friends if you want to. 3) Await further news from us in the new year! Happy Holidays!
