See here for a complete description:

I regret that I cannot write this blog post in Russian. 
The USB versions of The Path twice sold out, now it’s time for Edition 3. Featuring Special Edition wallpapers for your computer, work in progress videos, unreleased demos, and of course The Path game itself.
You can buy the USB edition via our online store for Mac or PC.
Or trial. Or demo. Finally you can try before you buy! Except this demo contains things that don’t happen in the full game… or rather, things happen differently. Maybe you will like to see it even if you’ve already played The Path.
Download The Path - Prologue here. Available for PC and Mac!
Tale of Tales is proud to announce that The Path is ALIVE on Mac OSX from this day forward!
Thanks to the lovely people over at Transgaming who, with their voodoo powers, helped us to create The Path for a new platform!
In other news of things good:
http://store.tale-of-tales.com has been refreshed and rebooted with a new product:
The Path Mac USB Deluxe Edition! Extra goodies and such, just like the PC version (which, by popular demand, we also have back in stock!), but custom made for Mac. You can’t play the early demos of the game on your Mac, for example, but we will make a few videos of the highlights so you don’t need Bootcamp to laugh at our girls’ first awkward steps. On the other hand, we’ll be putting some things on there just for Mac users… I’l try to get creative.
So, another milestone reached in The Path project. This really means that the work has only just begun. Now we can get to patching the Windows version of the game. Including fixes for problems that were reported on the forums. Solutions were found during the making of the Mac version. But, I’m sure you Mac folk will keep us busy too. All steps on the road to perfection, which is always a few kilometers further away than we hoped. Enjoy the game!
oh but, ONE MORE THING! 
I made some new desktop wallpapers for you…
They’re based on the pages at the Grandmother’s House site. Hope you like them!
This is our attempt at making a more traditional game trailer. I know: fail. But we can try, can’t we? 
There’s surprise at the end for certain people who haven’t been able to play The Path yet…
BOTH OF THESE VIDEOS CONTAIN SPOILERS!!!! you have been warned!
love this. its a review of the game. in polish. may show you more than you want revealed if you plan on playing the game fresh. it is very well done and worth watching. They also did quite an extensive looking write up of the game.
“lenki?”
meanwhile…
GIW (from The Path) from Lainy Voom on Vimeo.
Looks like someone put a lot of love and a lot of time into making that video. Thanks a million Lainy, its beautiful!
Now that we’re back and settling down, we’re making plans on how best to support The Path now it’s released. Putting plans into ACTION! For one thing, we’ve created an official group on Steam for the game. Behold!
The direct url is: http://steamcommunity.com/games/ThePath
There seems to be some interesting features to the Group… Like seeing how many are playing. That’s nice, like playing the game all together as a big community. And there’s a chat room too, though that scares me.
We will use the group to keep Steam players informed about news and updates and such… And who knows what THAT may lead to… o_0b
Anyway, I hope all of you Steam players (and you know who you are) will come join the group and let’s see what that does, eh.
It has begun.
All orders bought on or before April 1st through the Tale of Tales store have been mailed out, just now, by us. And we will be mailing things out weekly from now on.
Big THANK YOU to everyone who ordered! We packaged everything up nice :). While we were doing it we had a thought… Why don’t we sign the posters? so we did. Hope you like that. Since you didn’t know, we kept it simple.
AND
this got us thinking… “Why don’t we have a Poster Sale?”
So we are!
Every month we will discount 2 of the girl posters and send them to you signed, in silver ink. Trust us, its pretty, i’ll draw a little pictogram on there, just for you.
The entire month of April Robin and Rose can be yours for the lowered cost of €18.
ALSO
The USB sticks are going fast! If you have an interest in seeing work in progress outtakes from The Path and the (in)famous early interactive demo with a dance-off between Ruby and Charming Wolf, I suggest you go for it now.
Here are the results of the little photoshoot I mentioned last week. Our model did a fabulous job, never fearful of spiders, willing to lay down in the mud and hold giant posters in the blowing wind like a pro.
Several of these are used as product shots in the store but since I didn’t have room there for them all, thought I’d post ‘em here too.
and lets face it, me and Michael are totally jet-lagged and excited… can’t sleep, might as well upload images to flickr, right.
So, this is photo of our own in-house cosplayer taken yesterday just before we went out for a photoshoot among the trees. (You will see the results of that soon, yesyes.) She holds her latest creation… A ‘Ruby’ outfit made for her doll. She would like you all to know that Rose is her favorite Red Girl because they are the same age. We tried to tell her that she is too young to play The Path… this seems to not matter to her… she just wants a poster of Rose. Done deal!
Here is an idea we got from the creative folks in the forums. Basically it is a way that YOU can help us spread the word about The Path in the offline world! Except for the occasional magazine mention we have absolutely no offline advertising 
SO why not download one of these tear-off posters! Print it out… add your own touches: draw wolves all over it, make a portrait of your favorite Red Girl… write a mini-review, or a poem… whatever. make it colorful… or invert the image to black and hang it in a night club/grocery store/library/bus stop etc. And please send us a photo when you’re done! Post it in the forums… we’d love to see what you come up with!
Last but absolutely not least, we have uploaded a Fan Kit for you. It contains forest backgrounds, silhouetted images of the girls, screenshots, logos and other things which you may use to make graphics for your website or blog. Maybe you’ve been dying to make a Path fansite?… hey, now you have what you need to get that project going It’s all on the downloads page. Make sure you link back to us is all we ask.
Okay… this will likely be the last blog post before the game is out… we are quite excited and quite proud to be releasing the game after such a long production. While the game may or may not be everything you ever dreamed of, we hope you will give it a chance, let it set your imagination on fire, and that you will ponder and enjoy. Your enjoyment will motivate us to make more games like this in the future!
Next post will be from another continent! Thank you all for your encouragement and support! :-*
