We still load up the data on the USB drive ourselves, I pack up each poster and try to give everything a personal touch. We actually don&#8217;t make much money from selling these <a href=\"http:\/\/store.tale-of-tales.com\/category\/usb-edition-games\">USBs<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/store.tale-of-tales.com\/category\/posters\">posters<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/store.tale-of-tales.com\/category\/postcards\">cards<\/a> but I am very happy that people who like having a physical product can have one to remember our game by.<\/p>\n<p>The choice to make USB sticks rather than CD&#8217;s was a simple one. We wanted fans to have something they could keep using long after they&#8217;ve stopped playing. I imagine that you could copy all the data then put whatever you want on the drive for many years to come. I have hundreds of old CD&#8217;s sitting in boxes in the attic&#8230; we didn&#8217;t want The Path to be one of those things. And so far we&#8217;ve done 3 editions of the Ruby one, 2 of Rose and this will be the one and only time we&#8217;ll print Robin, to keep her edition special.<\/p>\n<p>For The Path&#8217;s 1 year anniversary, we are selling the <a href=\"http:\/\/store.tale-of-tales.com\/product\/the-path-deluxe-collectors-edition\">silver USB featuring a sweet little print of Robin<\/a> that contains the PC &#038; Mac version of the game plus your choice of poster. The Rose (Mac only USB) is marked down until March 28. There are lots of other things on sale too.<\/p>\n<p><i>(By the way, the things I&#8217;m going to post here won&#8217;t always be duplicates of the <a href=\"http:\/\/tale-of-tales.com\/blog\">main ToT blog<\/a>,I&#8217;m just making sure everyone gets a chance to get something while the sale is going on. Things will be getting much more tangential tomorrow.)<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The merchandising for The Path has been a really home-made affair, despite the fact that we get our stuff professionally printed.
