Hey friends!

We have 4 days left to kickstart Letters together. By the end of this week, we will know how successful we have been!

Your support - especially in the last 6 days - gave our campaign the push it needed! Thank you so so much!
Your help - either financially or by spreading the word - got us to 17'896 CHF (~ 18125$). Let’s prepare for the last phase. We only got 4 days left, that’s not a lot, but together we can make it!

Let’s kickstart Letters everyone!
Share the campaign, spread the word, tell everyone! Together we can do it! 💚

Also, did you try our little personality quiz yet?
https://www.letters-game.com/quiz
There you can find out which Letters NPC you are. 

This, for example, are us and our friends, who we play Dungeons&Dragons with:

UniXorn is our Ranger, Lia is the DM, the two Sailors are our Bard & Cleric, the Reaper is our Druid and Maddie our Rogue

We had a lot of fun creating the quiz and we hope you enjoy it too! Which one did you get? 😀

All the best,
Aleksandra, Martina & Selina

Who are you?

Hey friends!
We have 9 days to go and wanted to share a little surprise with you! 🎁

Have you ever wondered who you would be in the Letters universe?
Sarah’s upbeat friend Lia? The lonely Reaper? Or someone you haven’t even seen in the demo yet, like the opinionated vase? Or superhero Ragna the Shieldmaiden?

Well, now you can find out. We created a personality quiz with 8 questions to determine what NPC you would be! We posted it on the top of our page, right here on Kickstarter.

Or follow this link:  https://www.letters-game.com/quiz 

Feel free to share the results here or with your friends. Take the test and find out something about yourself that you never really needed to know! 😛

We hope you like our little quiz! And please don’t forget to share the campaign. Only 9 days to go! 😲

Thank you for being awesome. Let's make the most of the next few days! 💚

All the best,
Aleksandra, Martina & Selina

Grunge’s not dead: New music & an experimental festival!
over 4 years ago – Mon, Nov 11, 2019 at 04:04:48 AM

Hey there, cool kids!

Our composer Michel Barengo got his friend Valentin Baumgartner to record some sweet guitar riffs for our soundtrack! It’s part of the song “Smells Like Grunge”. You can see that team Letters aren’t the only ones who like puns. Michel loves them too! That’s probably why we get along so well...
It's part of the soundtrack for the levels set in Sarah's teenage years btw. IF you choose to be a cool gamer. Should you choose to become an artistic teenage girl you'll get different music. So stay tuned!  (Haha… Music puns…)

We love the new song and Valentin’s awesome tunes! We hope you like it too. Let us know what you think.

Take a look:

We’re super happy to have these two talented people at our side! Go over to our Kickstarter page or click on the SoundCloud link and give it a listen.

On another note… (Ha! We did it again!)
Amaze Festival - the objectively COOLEST GAME FESTIVAL EVER - is launching a Kickstarter campaign!
It's a celebration of artistic games and interactive media and takes place in Berlin. We have been there three times so far and it was an absolute blast. We love it because it’s more than just games. It’s inspiring talks, workshops, music, parties, art, connections & collaboration. It’s playful punk and artistic expression.

2019 they even nominated us for the Humble New Talent Award!

So if you want to support video games and interactive media culture outside of the mainstream uniformity, go ahead and give them some love.

Remember, you don’t have to spend money to support a Kickstarter project. Sharing it on social media and in real life is super important too!

So please follow us on social media and share our campaign with all your friends!

With that in mind, thank you again so much for your help! Your support means the world to us. 💚💚💚
Also, we are now 60% funded! Thank you! Let’s get ready to tackle the last 40% and bring Sarah’s story to life! 💚💚💚

All the best,
Aleksandra, Martina & Selina
