Feel free to post any news on it here. We can continue to use the original thread for news commentary and general discussion about the game itself.

Update on the digital downloadable soundtrack (Kickstarter backers at 35$ or more) - I wanted to know whether or not it would be available in a lossless format, my preferred one being FLAC, so I went ahead and asked about it. On that note, Feargus Urquhart replied to me today saying that getting a confirmation on this matter (yes or no) is now on their to-do list, and that there'll be an update coming in the near future (Kickstarter / official site).

I received another message from Feargus Urquhart, and he confirmed that the digital soundtrack will also be available in a lossless format (FLAC).
