+1 for the Collector's Edition, +1 for developer commentary and +10 for a technical commentary about toughest software problems you had to solve. Many of your fans are programmers as well, as we'd love to hear the details. Was it that something related to the development of your own engine? Perhaps developing/assuring quality of ports on 3 separate OSes?

A Valve-style developer commentary would be ace and I think it shouldn't be too difficult to pull off technically. It's always great to see some behind the scenes -style stuff integrated into the game itself
. Of course this would take a little bit of time from the end of the development so I can't promise anything until we're close to shipping.
An actual physical collectors edition, though, won't probably make sense in the scale we operate on... We usually prefer to keep things simple even if it might mean a lost opportunity here and there.

It's good to get your response so quickly to this.
But since you won't be making a physical copy, I would like to formally demand one thing.
More pictures of Finland. It's so pretty!

Yep, it's official. You now have a fan movement demanding Finland pics. C'mon deliver.

I would totally go for a physical collector's edition (depending on what it contains, of course). I don't think you even need to make that many copies to make it financially profitable. Ghostlight just pre-sold 300 copies of Elminage: Original Limited Edition with an artbook and cards, and it was just 30£ a pop.

Okay, you're the boss!
Me and Juho went hiking to the Seitseminen national park this summer so here's a couple of photos from there. Click 'em if you want 'em bigger.
Swamp:
A forest lake:
Whooper swan (laulujoutsen):
And more swans who were chilling out in the lake by our campsite :3

So pretty.
I've never seen a swan in real life. Only ducks and geese.

Some lovely photos of Finland! My wife doesn't like tents, so I've not been able to properly go camping for some time - jealous!
Another +1 for a developer's commentary as part of a 'digital collections edition' too.
