The Art of Journey

The Art of Journey is a book released by ThatGameCompany on August 1 2012, giving information on the development of the characters and scenery in Journey. The first 750 people who pre-ordered the book received a signed copy. The 1st edition also included a coupon for the purchase of the soundtrack. A 2nd Edition was available for pre-order on October 22, 2013 with "minor typographical updates and is branded as a 2nd edition copy, but widely remains unchanged from the popular original." Signed copies of the 2nd edition were sold on Bluecanvas's official website while unsigned were sold through Amazon.

It has a companion app which allows readers to view 3D models with music on their tablets or phone on certain pages of the book. Please be aware that this is an old android app .apk format (Apple/iPhone uses .ipa and currently there has not been rescued file for sharing yet). The app was programed in API level 15 (Ice Cream Sandwich). The app is backward compatible with device OS's down to API level 08 (Android 2.2 Froyo). The app is forwards compatible to API level 20 (Android 4.4 Kitkat). Devices with API level 21 (Android 5.0 Lollipop) and higher will not work as there was a massive overhaul for Android with the implementation of Android Runtime (ART). Use an older phone model or an robust emulator in order for the app to function. If purchasing an old phone or tablet 2nd hand, verify with the seller what OS it currently has. Some devices which were released in the correct time frame, got OS updates past API level 20 (eg. Nexus 4 released November 2012 launched with API level 17 - Android 4.2 Jelly Bean but could have updates all the way up to API level 22 - Android 5.1 Lollipop).
