The Stanley Parable may be satire, but it's artistry is sincere. Developer Crows Crows Crows understood that on a fundamental level, in order for it's scathing deconstruction of interactive storytelling to really hit, The Stanley Parable had to feel like a polished, impressive piece of narrative fiction, in and of itself. That Polish is present everywhere in the game, from it's stark, corporate-approved visuals to it's superb voice acting, to it's extraordinary soundtrack. The Blake Robinson Synthetic Orchestra, Yiannis Ioannides, Christiaan Bakker, and Tom Schley all contributed pieces to this indelible score. The resulting product is an eclectic mix of whimsical orchestral tunes, surprisingly tense ambient sounds, and heroically inspiring themes, sure to stir something deep within your formerly settled soul. Parody, tribute, and unexpectedly original moments of brilliance are present across the tracklist here in equal measure, each working towards the same cohesive final score. Now, we at iam8bit are here to bring that very same score to you, presented on wax, with all of the care and consideration it deserves. Introducing The Stanley Parable 2xLP, a collection of the very best songs from the hallmark indie title, spread across two discs and pressed on 100% recycled black wax. Lovely designers, Dominik Johann and William Pugh, crafted the cover art, which, much like the game itself (and indeed the soundtrack, too) is understated and brilliant - a loving tribute to Stanley's possibly-traitorous sole companion, The Reassurance Bucket. It makes a mighty fine companion to your very own commemorative The Stanley Parable Collectible Bucket, if we do say so ourselves. And what's more, that art is printed on recycled, eco-friendly packaging. Now's your chance to take home a piece of indie game history. Don't miss out!20% of net proceeds from your Stanley Parable purchase will be donated to the non-profit charity 350. Org to fight climate change.
