Even the Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe website is clever
It’s best to go into the Stanley Parable completely blind, but this Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe website helps clue you into the vibe the game is going for, without spoiling anything.
That’s sort of the intent of the entire page, actually. In a very cheeky way, studio Crows Crows Crows provides the gist of what you expect, while providing soft “guidelines” of what constitutes a spoiler. As the site puts it, in the case of an early launch: “we expect you all to abide by the honor code and wait patiently until all other platforms and store fronts have caught up. This way, we can all hit ‘Play’ at the same time. Here at the The ‘The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe Release Preparedness’ Initiative we play fair.”
Everything from how they came up with the pricing for the Ultra Deluxe version, to spoiler guides, to spoilers in general (with a madlibs chart), to streaming is touched on. I don’t want to spoil much more, but suffice to say it’s a very similar feel in terms of how the Aperture company rolls from the Portal universe. There’s even an “honor system” certificate at the end so you can pat yourself on the back!
As for impressions on the game itself, expect those in the near future from our staff.
