Let the Matches Begin!
Charming Ladies and Eligible Bachelors,
After a little more than a year and a half of designing, writing and developing,
Austen Translation is finally out on Steam! Our small indie team is so grateful for all the support throughout the project, and especially to those of you that have kept tabs on our work through the dev blog.
This is only the beginning of our satirical romp through our world of Jane Austen. And certainly computational complications and bugs are not foreign to us, so if you encounter any unexpected unpleasantness please let us know here on Steam or feel free to contact us at: support@worthingandmoncrieff.com
Thank you so much! We sincerely hope that you enjoy Austen Translation, and that you don't die from a life of poverty and prostitution. Now get out there and show Jane exactly how it's done!

Need a Little More Control?
Hello, young lovers.
For those of you that have Steam Controllers, we suggest using the settings illustrated below. It's so much more satisfying to have a controller to throw at . . . I mean . . . to hand to your opponents while playing party-game multiplayer style. You should be able to download the controller settings from the Community Page at the link below.
Now get out there and show Jane how it's done!

Strategy and Music in Austen Translation
“Without music, life would be a blank to me.”
-Jane Austen
Gentlemen and ladies,
Our composer and sound designer was recently interviewed by Kate Remington of WSHU Public Radio for her video game music podcast Music Respawn. The interview offers a glimpse into the inspirations and design of the game, and how the music can help give the players a strategic advantage during play. Tune in on your platform of choice for a sneak-preview of the musical soundtrack of Austen Translation.
A Behind the Scenes Look at the Development of Austen Translation
Ladies and Gentlemen,
We at W&M are not able to adequately explain in words how very excited our little team is about Austen Translation's release tomorrow. We have been hard at work crafting this, our second literary-inspired experience over the past year and half and we hope you enjoy it. If you're interested in getting a glimpse of how Austen has developed over time, check out our development blog. You can get there from our website: http://austentranslation.com/
Thanks so much -- we can't wait for you all to play.
And remember: Marrying well is the best revenge!
